#August2019
Microsoft ain’t working on a streaming-only Xbox, despite what we all heard this year. Personally? I don’t give a shit.
Friends, the streaming revolution ain’t arriving as soon as we expected. Sure, Google has revealed Stadia. But, neither Sony nor Microsoft is ready to go in dick-first. At least not quite yet. This isn’t a surprise on Sony’s part. However, everyone was readying themselves at E3 for Microsoft’s Big Streaming Reveal. And that shit didn’t happen, and apparently won’t be anytime soon.

Every Xbox One game will be playable on Microsoft’s streaming service, Project xCloud. Game streaming war is heating the fuck up!
Microsoft is going heavy into the game streaming service. We’ve known that for a bit. But, how deep? Apparently the company is going to be offering every single fucking XB1 title on it. I guess this isn’t surprising, right? Still though, kind of goddamn impressive.
Microsoft and Sony form cloud gaming partnership. Love CAN bloom on the battlefield, friends!
Cloud gaming is, if not solely the future, at least an integral fucking part of it. Case in point? Microsoft and Sony teaming-up, perhaps in an effort to stave off Google.
Microsoft has patented an XBox controller with braille display. Accessibility++
Microsoft already has an adaptive controller to increase accessibility for gamers. That said, they’re not fucking done. Nope! The company has patented an Xbox controller with a braille display. Pretty gnarly.
Microsoft is close to buying Obsidian Entertainment, may actually have first-party games worth buying soon
Microsoft don’t have any fucking exclusives I care about, man. But, the company has been going on a shopping spree lately. They announced a slew of acquisitions at E3, and now they’re close to snagging Obsidian. At least they ain’t taking their lack of exclusive library laying down anymore.
Microsoft announces their Xbox game streaming service, cause to the cloud we go
Microsoft, sensibly, has decided to roll out their own game streaming service.
Xbox All Access subscription is gonna offer you a console, Xbox Live, and Game Pass for a monthly fee. Hail, the future!
The console environment, it certainly is a fucking changing. I mean, right? Look at this shit. Soon, Microsoft is going to begin offering a very cellphone-esque service. For one monthly fee you’ll get a financed Xbox console, Xbox Live, and Game Pass.
‘Xbox One X’ is the official name of Microsoft’s Project Scorpio, dropping November 7
Well, the “most powerful console ever” has an official name. Xbox One X. Microsoft is officially wading into Square game title territory with this one.
Microsoft Scorpio price maybe leaks at $500, and that makes sense to me
The price for Microsoft’s Scorpio console has leaked prior to the official reveal, and it’s going to be $500. I’ve heard some gnashing of the teeth about this price point and frankly I’m confused. It’s a completely optional, premium console for only the most tech whorish folks out there (hi!). It isn’t ushering in a new generation, *and* it’s the most powerful console ever. Frankly, I was expecting an even *higher* price. Maybe it’s just me.
Microsoft’s Project Scorpio specs coming Thursday, rumored name is “Xbox One X”
