What a bunch of babies.

 

[Jerm411]

You reap what you sow…MS enabled and were pals with a lot of this delusional fucks and now it’s coming back to bite them in the ass.

They’re all insane.

 

[PectacularOz]

Self-fulfilling prophecy now.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

How can anyone be this soft?

 

[Hohenheim]

Wow. I didn't know that these kind of folks were real. They're all actors, right? This can't be real people out there, actually hurt by decisions made by these companies?
So glad I don't have twitter and those other social media. It's gettin hard enough manouvering this forum.
All these "console warriors" and "fanboys". It's like a fever dream. Couldn't make this shit up if I tried.
Hope everyone is well and that they get some fresh air. Jeez.

 

[Mr Hyde]

YouTube is on fire as well. Tons of content creator are putting out videos stating that Xbox is dead and going third party, and a lot of them seems to be hardcore Xbox fans. There seems to be a real desperation among these people because they have built their entire channels around the Xbox brand and console war content, tying their personalities to it. You can literally see these people panicking in real time. Even if the news next week aren't as severe as these folks are saying, the damage done to the brand is irreversible. The house of Xbox is crumbling, and it's crumbling fast. Fasten your seatbelts. The coming week is going to be wild.

 

[Gudji]

Thing is the brand ain't going anywhere you'll just be able to play it in one more platform. lol

 

[MikeM]

Man next week can’t come fast enough.

 

[Interfectum]

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

I don't even care if this is a nothing burger

Phil leaving these guys to dry for a week is fucking hilarious

 

[soulbait]

Anyone else remember when Sony fanboys were crying and freaking out due to games going to PC? There were meltdown videos and such. I thought to myself, "man, Sony fanboys are like a cult and an odd bunch."

Well looks like I was wrong. It is not Sony fanboys, just fanboys in general. What the actual fuck?

I get it if you are unhappy with a direction a company is going, but in the end who the hell cares? Why build your identity so much on a brand? Such odd behavior.

Consumerism is killing us.

 

[Vroadstar]

Mister X media is waiting...

 

[GutsOfThor]

It's a fucking consumer product.....

[FalsettoVibe]

That community is something else.....

 

[RoboFu]

ORRRRR they are just getting clicks and views.

 

[jufonuk]

Didnt times g used to post on gaf?

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

God damn, gamers are a bunch of pathetic babies.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

God damn, gamers are a bunch of pathetic babies.

Real gamers are not its the console warriors that are

 

[Metnut]

If these influencers were worth anything to begin with, XBox wouldn’t be in its current situation.

 

[reinking]

They will be back next week.

 

[DR3AM]

Xbox > PS

 

[nani17]

I was listening to it last night when Geoff joined the chat and honestly, it was just fucking embarrassing listening to grown men practically cry. The same people that once were laughing at the fact MS owns activation and Bethesda and Sony were not getting "X" game.

We don't even know the full story of whats happening and these guys went straight into full panic mode

 

[Valonquar]

Not sure why anyone would ever want a Fisher Price themed controller. Jesus Fucking Shit Christ

 

[MayauMiao]

They will get over it. Just give them time.

 

[swaffles23]

The parasocial relationships these people have with a company is weird

 

[Mownoc]

Some people made the Xbox platform their entire personality. Some people built their entire online personas, channels and even livelihoods around stoking console warrior nonsense and Xbox vs PlayStation. These sad people are in turmoil.

 

[King Dazzar]

The problem with all these fanboi's and shills. They furiously fought to stop any and all constructive critique of Xbox. It was one of my frustrations when I was primarily an Xbox player. Anything you dared say criticising anything Xbox, immediately had you swarmed on by green rats. Just take a look at the kind of reactions we got with full screen adverts. And surprise, surprise, we're now seeing rumours of adverts going even further and becoming fully entwined with GP. But alas, here we are. Good riddens, they were always part of the problem.

 

[H-I-M]

This is for all the years of us having to endure the "gamepass is the furure" propaganda, having to see "good guy Phil" annoying face everywhere, Microsoft trying to buy their way into the industry.

Keep them meltdowns coming green team !!!

 

[Maddoxswe]

Xbox > PS

Buy 1 console > Scalpers ( you are still a scum )

 

[DenchDeckard]

The worst part is....in a week these psychos are going to be saying its not that bad and they are back on board.

Stockholm syndrome

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Lol now we can look forward to them talking about how much they love Playstation and hate PC and Nintendo? Sometimes I wish social media didn't exist so cunts like these didn't have a platform to spout their shite.

 

[Codes 208]

Thats pretty damn petty. How dare games be offered on other platforms, opening up the potential audience

 

[JohnnyFootball]

The worst part is....in a week these psychos are going to be saying its not that bad and they are back on board.

Xbox cutting these scumbags off would IMMEDIATELY make me like them better.

While they're at it fire Aaron Greenberg and Matt Booty. Bring in people like Rodd Ferguson and Jack Tretton.

Those moves would immediately make me like Xbox better.

oh 100%.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

On the bright side maybe these guys will go lift a weight or talk to a girl or something. They'll have so much more free time.

 

[YOU PC BRO?!]

A little hasty. They should at least wait until we have concrete information.

 

[Elios83]

What a tragedy

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

wait wat baby? the check is not in the mail?

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Pulling support lol. Like they're an independent powerhouse of marketing that'll take their business elsewhere.

Adults behaving like this makes me wish they'd have to live in their forefathers' shoes for just a week.

 

[shaddam]

I wish i was an MS ambassador. As a college student free games would have been great, but I dont think I would ever sink to the level of some "influencer"

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

streaming a 7-hour Spaces audio discussion

i was there. i was part of history.

 

[Dick Jones]

But where will we be without him?

Those damn Spidey-Boyz

We world we live...

 

[AV]

It's just clicks and views. Next week after Phil's speech it'll be

"PHIL SAVES THE DAY - XBOX NOT DEAD"
"WHY XBOX GAMES ON PLAYSTATION IS GOOD FOR XBOX GAMERS"

yadda yadda. They'd be stupid to stay quiet if this is their job.

 

[DJ12]

Not sure why anyone would ever want a Fisher Price themed controller. Jesus Fucking Shit Christ

Probs matches his mental age

oh boy.

Who the hell will continue to listen to these people after these immature, unhinged reactions?

 

[Atrus]

These people derived money and status from shilling for XBOX and they now see that well drying up. They are too much of an outlier to represent the consumer at large so it’s not a big loss.
