Probably just going to be the normal Xbox UI and systems they use on their consoles now.

Like a Steam deck being able to switch between Steam OS and the desktop environment

This kinda crazy

they should try to rush this out the door for gta6 and its the "best" way to play it at launch

This s*** won't sell

definitely will

pc gaming is so big now if they price it right and the power is there it’s a no brainer for average consumers who want to get into pc gaming to go with this

This isn’t true and he is corrected many times in the comments

This will be out before pc version

This isn’t real

Hi. Cheap PC gaming is big. This price bracket of PC gaming isn’t.

that’s what i’m saying if they can actually sell it for $900-1000 then yeah it’s a crazy deal but also the power needs to be there

now if it’s more i don’t expect people going out and getting it but im thinking about how many kids now want a pc over a console thats why i feel like this COULD be a hit but we all know xbox will do something dumb and fail

Im talking about the xbox version obv

I also see it doing well because buying a prebuilt is such a gamble now you never know what parts you get i mean my new pc i just got came with some no name ram that died day one. I feel like this wont have that problem since they will be using the same parts so the quality control will be there

I know I’m saying the helix will be out before the pc version

All they gotta do is drop a commercial/reveal where you have a high school kid playing Forza or whatever with the boys then he flips over to pc mode or whatever they call it and then opens up some homework on Word.

I feel like they have something there with that.

they should have modded minecraft and bo3 zombies in the commercial

This thing isn't dropping until Windows 12 is ready tbh

This s*** was like if Cole announced a new album and then no one cared

Voice chat party study session with your bros on canvas but yall need a break and instantly swap to a multiplayer lobby together

I'll give Microsoft that one as it is good, just wish more games were backwards compatible. There's really no excuse on Sony's end as the hardware on the PS5 is powerful enough to run PS3 games at ease, nor can we use PS1 or PS2 disc in the system despite Blu-ray is backwards compatible to DVD and CD.

they made it seem like this junk was dropping next year lol

I stopped reading when they said alpha versions will be sent to testers in 2027

I think 1200 is the max they can go before people completely tune out. Around 1K would be better but who knows if they could pull it off, would probably have to sell at a loss like the PS3.

800 would be the Hail Mary. Either way I do not envy their marketing team, who do you even sell this thing to.
