This really shakes up next gen and makes Gamepass a ridiculous subscription.

Between Obsidian and Bethesda if you play RPG games you’ll be wanting a Xbox or PC. https://t.co/fK6nwcRgRm
The second-biggest news in Microsoft's announcement today was the massive leap in Xbox Game Pass subscribers, from 10m in April to 15m today. Microsoft didn't buy Zenimax to battle the PlayStation 5 -- Microsoft bought Zenimax to quadruple that number https://t.co/Fpau8Rg4pC

Microsoft will deliver Deathloop and Ghostwire: Tokyo as PlayStation timed exclusives as Bethesda agreed. After that, games will be on Xbox, PC, Game Pass and other consoles will be considered on a case by case basis, @XboxP3 tells me https://t.co/kNGt0u8Pn3

1. Netflix: Bundle as Business Model
2. Disney+: Bundle as CRM
3. Amazon: Bundle as Churn Management
4. Microsoft: Bundle as Market Expansion
5. Apple: Bundle as Money-Maker
"Netflix is also focused on quantity as much as quality, recognizing that people sometimes just want something to watch, and that there is value in being the default choice"

Good essay - "2020 Bundles" by @benthompson https://t.co/DwBhZvE44H
넷플릭스, 디즈니+, 아마존(프라임 비디오), 마이크로소프트(엑스박스 게임패스)가 각 판매하는 정기결제 '번들'은 일면 유사해 보이지만 각 회사의 핵심 사업에 따라 다른 목적을 가지며, 애플이 최근 발표한 '애플 원'은 막상 핵심 사업에의 기여도가 약하다고 지적하는 글https://t.co/Y93IOooWPV

Gamers have long criticized Microsoft for having inferior games than rival Sony. Microsoft changed that perception in a big way Monday, announcing a $7.5 billion acquisition of a video game company with some major titles. Latest for @nytimes w/@stevelohr https://t.co/HJIfc2p6HX
