killamch89 Posted December 15, 2024 Share Posted December 15, 2024 With Microsoft's growing investment in cloud gaming, do you think the company will eventually phase out traditional consoles like Xbox and focus exclusively on cloud gaming? Considering their push with Game Pass and the acquisition of gaming studios, it seems like cloud gaming might be the future for them. What are your thoughts? Will they eventually move away from hardware or continue to balance both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 While cloud gaming is a priority, I believe Microsoft will maintain a balance between hardware and cloud services for broader accessibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 4 Author Share Posted February 4 I believe Microsoft might eventually shift more towards cloud gaming as the technology improves. The convenience of playing anywhere without needing expensive hardware is a significant advantage. However, it will probably take time for cloud gaming to fully replace traditional consoles, as there are still technical hurdles to overcome.

Shortie Posted Sunday at 08:49 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:49 PM Whilst cloud gaming is becoming popular, I still feel that there is a lot of work to be done before it can become the only way to play online. Since the release of cloud gaming with Xbox, I have noticed a huge difference in stability but for them to move solely to cloud gaming, a lot more would need to be done to make it stable enough that it would not have constant issues.
