The console is not being sunsetted because of AI. Its being sunsetted to force everyone into online subscription services.

Kids play on Playstation these days if they play on an old fashioned console at all

Is life really worth living without Xbox? 18 hours a day playing Halo, The Elder Scrolls and Grand Theft Auto V gives a person a reason to get out of bed and get dressed. They can’t take that away. It would be cruel and unusual punishment without a trial.

I dabbled with a Sega Genesis once, but never got into the cartridge games experience.

Satya Nadella made some profitable calls during his first few years... but his fixation on AI and the way that the Windows 11 transition has shown that he is no longer up to the task. Microsoft has lost nearly 20% of their value since January 28. The majority of this loss occurred in the first 5 days. Their market capitalization has lost approximately $670 Billion since January 28.

It is time for Billy G. and the others at MS to throw his skinny Indian a$$ under the bus, and move on. He has a vision that has now failed Microsoft completely. There is no better example than Windows 11, Co-Pilot and Microsoft’s AI boondoggles.

I’ll take a gaming PC with flight controllers and racing wheel over a gaming console any day of the week...

I know the PS4 will be retired, no longer useable. My niece is begging for us to get her a PS5 for her birthday. $500 for that box!

The last, and only, video game console I ever had was an Atari 2600 my uncle bought the family. The last game I probably ever played was Pitfall 2. Other than that, I waste enough time on FR to make up for my lack of playing games.
