The Xbox ecosystem could be turned upside down if recent reports are to be revealed and, naturally, fans of Microsoft’s gaming business have much to say about this. The responses to reports that the company is thinking about releasing its Xbox-exclusive games on PlayStation has elicited everything from reasoned discussion to outright rage.
At this point, it’s difficult to cut through the noise and consider all the perspectives, mostly because of the immediate and overwhelming reaction on social media platforms. So, on this episode of Spot On, Lucy and Tamoor break down everything that happened and discuss what it all means. They talk through the reports indicating Microsoft’s drastic shift in business, as well as what it stands to gain and lose and the reaction from the Xbox fanbase.
Spot On is a weekly news show airing Fridays in which GameSpot’s managing editor Tamoor Hussain and senior producer Lucy James talk about the latest news in games. Given the highly dynamic and never-ending news cycle of the massive video game industry, there’s always something to talk about but, unlike most other news shows, Spot On will dive deep into a single topic as opposed to recapping all the news. Spot On airs each Friday.
