If I'm Microsoft I'm saying fuck it, no more hardware, we suck at it, and I'd make a version of Windows optimized for the big screen that runs on any PC you want. Then beyond that, just become a publisher. They just simply are not good at making hardware.

    XBOX hardware is fine. It's what they've done with it that's the problem.

    The original Xbox was a powerhouse. I had so many CDs saved on that hard drive and it never even mentioned any storage restrictions. Shredding runs on Amped 2 woth my own music was so sick.

    They were way ahead of the curve back then. They've just enshittified in the meantime.

    Eh no?

    Hardware is the only thing Microsoft remotely did well. Microsoft software has sucked donkey balls since the first basic they released and that wasn't event theirs. Microsoft doesn't know how to build good software, they never did
