So Xbox is officially dead.

from the outside a pc is just too much work and effort, having to gather all the right parts and put it together . theyre also pretty pricey

Not really. That was a problem before, sure, when having a PC was something uncommon and was looked at as something only nerds/geeks did. But now, with companies having really good prebuilt PCs ready to purchase and install like your average console, there really is no reason not to buy one instead of a console, except for, of course, the price being higher. But with companies making their products more expensive (*cough *cough* Nintendo), even that excuse is slowly dying. So all in all, there just is no point, imo, to buy a console, except for I guess collecting them and stuff like that, but that's besides the point.

I can't be arsed to deal with crappy ports, horrible optimization, checking drivers, fighting nvidia's bullshit, looking into logs, juggling 3-4 clients, configuring servers and ports for friends, tweaking .inis to make resolutions work and I could go on and on and on.

I do this on my 9-5, I don't want to deal with it anymore, even if I'm a professional at it.

and still, I am the console gamer that helps my PC friends with their problems, because I can fix them.
 
To be fair, it's not like xbox put much of a fight in the first place; after all the mistakes that xbox committed in the last 10 years it was obvious that some powerful people at microsoft wanted xbox to die, why else would they make so many dumb decisions over and over again.
