Microsoft RUINED Gaming Forever

From the early days of Windows 95 and DirectX to the Xbox Series X era, Microsoft’s grip on gaming has been full of controversial decisions. Microsoft has a vast history in tech and gaming, and Bill Gates' alone has conquered more than you think with this company... but not always for the better.

This video dives into their biggest failures, including Games for Windows Live, the Windows 8 disaster, Windows 10 issues, the Windows 11 TPM security controversy, and their walled-garden approach that limits competition with Office 365 and UWP apps via the Windows store. Also, they seem to hate modders... especially FREE mods.

I'll also explore the Xbox One’s disastrous launch, the original Xbox’s struggles, Xbox constantly shutting down studios like Arkane, the monopolistic Activision Blizzard merger, and how Phil Spencer has shaped Xbox’s overall direction to be a cloud gaming platform via xcloud and game pass.

With rumors of Xbox integrating Steam, is Microsoft tightening its monopoly even further, or folding completely? In this video, I break down how Bill Gates’ vision for Microsoft may have led to its biggest mistakes, and ended up ruining gaming forever.
