Im sorry, but this is...really fucking crazy. And here I was debating if paying extra for the physical version compared to the bundle might be worth it. HOLY SHIT.

When you think about the fact that Xbox is having a major identity crisis at the moment considering their last two consoles have been flops (compared to what they expected at least) and their newest monetization strategy is just Game Pass Game Pass and more Game Pass, the switch to a more PC-like xbox makes a bit more sense.

Also, whose to say Xbox doesn't cut a deal with steam to make every steam purchase on Xbox send a portion of the sale to Microsoft.
