Xbox in 2018: Thoughts, predictions, hopes, and dreams

2017 was a fun year for Xbox One fans, but many questions still remain, both for current owners, and potential future owners.

Microsoft continues to lose arguments revolving around its games library, that not only lacks quality "AAA" exclusives when compared to the competition, but it's generally missing developer support vs. PC and PlayStation. Despite not having exclusivity deals in place, certain games like Nier Automata and Final Fantasy XIV haven't arrived on Xbox due to the console's abysmal performance in Japan, and issues arising from its platform policies. Xbox gamers have needlesslly missed out on heavy-hitting, headline-dominating titles, save for some bright spots like Cuphead and the runaway success story PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.

When it comes to visuals, the Xbox One X is dominating the console scene, defying expectations across the board. The Xbox One X delivers the best visuals available outside of expensive high-end PCs, and it's the smallest Xbox yet. The Xbox platform also received a pretty hefty dashboard revamp, bringing in some Microsoft Fluent Design elements and adding in many hotly requested features.
