@eurogamer Good. An atrocious company with no idea how to foster good customer relationships. Haven't spent a penny there for the last 14 years.

@RupertLowe10 All pubs that adopt this will thrive. And all others will fail. Bring it on.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

A Restore Britain Government will allow pub landlords and other venue owners to install a smoking room.

If adults want to smoke inside a contained room, and the landlord is happy to provide that, then it's none of our business.

Crack on.

The very worst Prime Minister of the very worst Government.

Good riddance.

Well @XBOX @asha_shar , it's your choice. You can stand with all of us on consumer rights & anti-monopoly practices. As well as, historic, cultural, & artistic preservation. You can do what is morally right in a time where you wish to reset & regain trust with your core audience.

Dear @asha_shar @XBOX

On behalf of VGP, we would like to share our perspective as a retailer that has proudly supported the gaming industry and the Xbox brand for many years.

When Microsoft originally introduced the vision for the Xbox One with a strong emphasis on digital ownership, the response from consumers was immediate. Sony took advantage of that moment by positioning the PlayStation 4 as the console that embraced physical game ownership, and history shows how influential that decision became.

Today, the market is shifting once again. Sony appears to be moving further toward a digital-first future, creating an opportunity for Microsoft to differentiate itself by becoming the industry's strongest advocate for physical media.

We encourage Microsoft to revisit Project Helix and make physical games a core part of its strategy. There remains a passionate and dedicated audience that values collecting, preserving, lending, trading, and truly owning the games they purchase. As a retailer, we see that demand every day.

The saying "what goes around comes around" feels especially relevant. Years ago, Sony benefited by championing physical ownership while Microsoft moved toward digital. Today, Microsoft has an opportunity to reverse that narrative and become the company that stands behind consumer choice.

Many gamers still look back on the Xbox 360 era as the golden age of Xbox. The platform was synonymous with innovation, great games, and strong relationships with both players and retail partners. We believe Microsoft can recapture much of that goodwill by reaffirming its commitment to physical gaming and by bringing Project Helix to market.

As one of Microsoft's retail partners, we believe a renewed investment in physical media would benefit consumers, retailers, publishers, and Xbox itself. We respectfully encourage you and your leadership team to consider this opportunity and help usher Xbox back to the position of industry leadership that so many fans remember.

Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to seeing Xbox continue to innovate while supporting the millions of players who still value physical game ownership.

Sincerely

VGP

@_Tom_Henderson_ GTA is the most overrated game series ever made. Unimaginative writing, awkward controls and technologically unambitious. Chewing gum for the mind.

@DDayCobra @Grummz Bungie is like the ship of Theseus anyway. The studio that built Halo no longer exists.
