Xbox Ends 2024 in a Blaze of Glory | Defining Duke, Episode 207

It’s never a slow week on the Green Team, is it? Here are the Dukes thinking in our final episode of the year will be a nice, steady, and quiet exit into the new year, but Xbox had different plans! This week, Satya Nadella addressed investors and claimed that Microsoft’s newest “This Is An Xbox” campaign is specifically defined to, well, redefine what it means to be an Xbox fan. So, what is an Xbox fan now? What is one by the new generation? Will there even be a shiny new box with that new generation at this rate? Every time the Dukes think this conversation is laid to rest, Xbox manages to twist the knife one more time. We also get into Xbox’s Project Rainway, a cross platform Xbox guide system, as well as why The Outer Worlds 2 is PS5 bound! We also sink our teeth into SEGA’s renaissance, what dormant IP Capcom may tackle next, why Starfield has so many loading screens, a boatload of “health is wealth” write-ins, and plenty more in a strong finish to a mighty interesting year for Xbox!

At 3:10:47 - Cog being able to pull out the recommendation for Matty off the rip with zero prep is an exclamation point on how great our Duke Duo really is. Great reasoning too!

Borderlands is the last bastion of hilarious comedy Mel Brooks and Monthy Python style. A more serious Borderlands does not make sense. Anyone celebrating this did not learn anything from latest Saint's Row. Also, the villains in three were great and the fun the creators were making of streamers and YouTubers was perfect.

I thoroughly agree with Cog, about how c-level suits and stakeholders think about 'numbers must go up'. It begs the question: what will XBOX do next year to show a YoY growth, without an acquisition alike ABK :----)?
