According The Gaming Community, The PS5 Pro's Pricing Is ALL Phil Spencer & Xbox's Fault, WOW!

[Music] well listen C money I let's get right to the topic I'll catch the last couple super chats before we get on out of here so the narrative that has been running rampid and people like like like are for real but this isn't this isn't an assumption I'm not being factious I'm not trying to make you know make a joke out of it the narrative and again Simon I appreciate the generosity brother and I and obviously we're not singling you out this is your opinion you're you're entitled to it but I have to push back on it uh because I do not believe Sony is acting the way Sony is acting which they have shown us many times before see money this is who they are they charge you $10 for an upgraded uh an upgrade fee for graphics when smart delivery exists they charge you to have Cloud saves they just raised the price of the actual console in Japan before the announcement of this egregious $700 they also in the same week raised a console I mean the the controllers by five bucks this is who Sony is last year they raised their service prices to as as much as $180 a year for their maximum addition of of of PSN and they do not add enough day and date now have they had a have they had a few sure but they also took out Spider-Man and Miles Morales when Spider-Man 2 was coming out so they could sell it to you you know what else they just did they took out Horizon forbidden West because Lego Horizon is coming out and instead of having that game in there where someone that might buy the Lego game and say what is this Horizon game I'm gonna go play it now they're gonna make people go buy it how come MLB the show is in Game Pass and not in the service how come Concord wasn't in the service because this ultimately is who PlayStation is and who put them there are the people who continue to pay for these things and that is why they're busy enough to drop a 700 Bare Bones next uh you know I almost said next gen mid gen PlayStation yeah midgen refresh and and fresh faced get out there and be like yeah you folks need it and they do they're doing that because there have been people there's been spaces there have been podcasts I'll pay $100 for the next God of War because it's a I I'll pay for Quality it's that mentality that that gives the absolute so Sony's people in charge go ahead and charge them more because they're gonna pay for it see money this is a narrative I do not agree with I think that it has so many falsities to anyone running it the lack of competition again X box gets blamed for everything the series X when something doesn't work on another platform is blamed because of the series s now we're hearing well it's because Microsoft isn't competing well yeah uh I think they are competing because they spent a hundred billion dollars in five years and they own every major IP you could possibly want and yes there some of them are going to go uh to PlayStation and people are going to play them and they're going to buy them and the and the all the monies coming from the PlayStation gamers are going to fund the next game so thank you very much for that but see let's let's talk about this this is this is I find it to be ridiculous at best what are your thought it's so stupid it's so stupid because they this is the problem all these people who say this right who are out here saying this they want to live in a bubble where somehow they believe PlayStation is making Sony the most money in the world okay again it is not Sony has showed you that they are not investing in PlayStation the way they invest elsewhere right they're looking to invest in movies they're looking to invest in music PlayStation is not one of those places that they're doing heavy investing anymore Bungie was the last one and that's probably going to be the last that you see for a while the point is PlayStation is not making the price High because they're coming from a position of power it's not from a position of power it's a position of desperation they need the profit and they know there's plenty of suckers who will do it they know this is the reality this is why they're doing it it's not because they are this all powerful Monopoly and consoles now they're not a monopoly and consoles Nintendo is smoking them what are you talking about Nintendo has the Monopoly and consoles if you want to talk about who has the most [ __ ] out there right now let's be real man they these these ponies and these dudes that get listen they listen a listen I know there's a lot of these dudes who are you know quote unquote XBox guys who watch a bunch of these ponies talk okay and they go listen to them and listen you obviously if you go there and you spend your time listening to them you they have some influence over you right and what happens is it changes your mindset to start believing this Pony narrative right to say that the fault of PlayStation raising their price is because Xbox is not competition that's like that's like you being abused in your relationship with your spouse and they just beating on you every day and you say yeah uh no it's it's because my mailman doesn't bring the mail on time he always brings it random times it's so he gets so mad when it happens and he beats me what are you talking about these are Xbox has nothing to do with what PlayStation is doing Xbox has already left they've already left the arena they don't give a [ __ ] about the game that PlayStation is playing PlayStation is still playing at the Kitty table right they're still doing the same old baby moves right they haven't changed they're lost right now right they're they're so afraid to let go right that that's where they are they don't want to let go of the past right they don't want to move forward Xbox is already done that right that might hurt you guys it might make you feel sad um but unfortunately at the end of the day for you guys XBox doesn't care how you feel Xbox is crushing it again with the amount of profit that they make over PlayStation you don't you don't think they look at that and laugh you don't think Satia is like oh yeah I can't wait to do my next my next acquisition that's going to boost us up even further that's going to slap them up even further come on man the the idea is ridiculous I'm sorry if you're sitting there saying that to yourself that oh yeah that really um that really is the reason yeah this Xbox God stupid Xbox If Only They would compete come on man come on Playstation spent like3 billion doll or maybe four all up with all the studios that they bought in the last few years that they got pumped to buy stuff Xbox spent over a 100 bill yeah I mean come on we are not the same what are you talking about what are you talking about all right I mean interestingly enough C and and I I want you to touch on this point because this is a point that gets overlooked you made mention of something moments ago where Xbox has left the way that they do business right they're not they're not chasing what PlayStation is doing PlayStation has and is and continues to be the same PlayStation from the PS1 days sell you a box you buy games for said box and then they move you to the Next Generation where you buy new box and new games now yes things are backwards compatible at least there's that but but the difference of where Xbox is is you can play an Xbox game anywhere you have the ability to do so you can play it on your PC you can play it on your console you can play it on your handheld you can play it on your TV you can play it Here There and Everywhere that is why even though consoles are important and of course they want to sell consoles they're not harping and doing what Sony is doing Sony is years behind see what are your thoughts on that I mean it's the reality right it's 100% the reality they are years behind they're stuck in a in a they're stuck trying to Wrangle the same number of people that they've always had we've heard it multiple times the console Market is not growing it's not growing and I got to tell you bro they have 61 million consoles shipped yep 61 million of them what has that done for the sales of their games W what has it done where where does the number of consoles out there for them equal so many more sales of their games it doesn't it doesn't Xbox has a console it has a console it's going to keep having a console for as long as people keep Desiring to have a console but that is not the only thing that they do they have multiple ways to get into this ecosystem and it all benefits us at the end of the day again you guys like this is the this is the point that these people try to downplay yeah and it frustrates I know exactly where you're going Xbox going big Xbox going wide Xbox all of this to gain more back to them more money you know what that does for Xbox players this is why we talk about it like this is because all of that comes back to us in Game Pass yep there you go that's it all of that comes back to us in Game Pass you may you're if you're not an Xbox dude and you haven't experienced Game Pass and you're just seeing it from the outside you don't have your hands on those games that come out all the time and your the ability to just be like oh I want to play this oh you know I feel like playing this let me do that and just hit download or right on the cloud you even have to download that [ __ ] you just go boom play it right there you're good to go all of that all of that comes back to us we see it every month month in month out we see the games coming into Game Pass for us El grtis as part of our subscription so for us so for us on Xbox side when we talk about Xbox moving past the little the little playground that PlayStation is now alone in right that little that little playground that they play in and they moved on to the big leagues um uh I'm sorry but for us it's a huge win it's a huge W you might not care you might say oh the game passes for poor people well let me be poor let me be poor I'll be happy as [ __ ] being poor playing a [ __ ] ton of games while you who are rich are only playing a few yeah you know what you're you're so poor that you're going to be able to play Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Indiana Jones fact facts it's look [Music]
