XBox Live Network
The New York Times covers Microsoft's planned XBox Live network, a subscription-based online service for the XBox. Microsoft's "we control everything" approach will probably impact the number of games available, but the article notes that the service will include voice-over-ip, which might be a selling point.
To hell with Microsoft's planned XBox Live network, the situation is critical I've closed all my blinds except one, to keep an eye on the nearby downtown and suspension bridge. Eat light, stay alert.
See subject.
Thank you.
You sly fucking bitch. You had me by this close!
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered XBOX community when IDC confirmed that XBOX market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all game consoles. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that XBOX has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. XBOX is collapsing in complete disarray.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict XBOX's future. The hand writing is on the wall: XBOX faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for XBOX because XBOX is dying. Things are looking very bad for XBOX. As many of us are already aware, XBOX continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
Microsoft states that there are 7000 users of XBOX. How many halo users of are there? Let's see. The number of halo versus GTA3 posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 50 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/50 = 140 Halo users.
All major surveys show that XBOX has steadily declined in market share. XBOX is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If XBOX is to survive at all it will be among OS dilettante dabblers. XBOX continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, XBOX is dead.
Fact: XBOX is dying
