Press to jump
- 0:46Ray examines Sharma's financial statement alongside profit targets and console supply constraints.
- 3:20The hosts question what Xbox should prioritize between multiplatform releases and console exclusivity.
- 9:00Reported Gears of War: E-Day costs and sales frame a discussion of The Coalition's position.

- 14:05The hosts examine reported Sentinel naming and possible announcement venues for The Elder Scrolls VI.
"More good news for Xbox owners!" comes with a question mark once Ray starts talking. "It looks like Asha Sharma's plan is working, or is it?" he asks, opening Xbox Ready's most-watched new upload of the week.
Jimmy Champane joins him to unpack Sharma's account of improving revenue trends alongside continuing hardware supply problems. The useful tension is between encouraging signs and a verdict neither host is ready to deliver. Jimmy's position is that judging the strategy takes years, not a handful of announcements. The discussion moves through multiplatform releases, console pricing and reports about The Elder Scrolls VI.
The episode reached roughly 57,000 views, the largest total among six new uploads. Its comments bring the conversation back to the household budget: viewers question next-generation console prices, ask for continued Series X support and debate how much time Sharma should get.
There was a concrete follow-up, too. In "This Xbox lie just fell apart...", Ray revisits the widely discussed Gears of War: E-Day budget. His description explains that the reported sum appears to cover years of The Coalition's operations, including work supporting other projects, rather than that game alone. That distinction changes the discussion considerably without settling every question about the studio's future.
Across the channel, subscribers were unchanged over the week, while daily viewing is running at about half its usual level. Nearby gaming channels had varied weeks: GVG accumulated substantially more weekly views, while PSReady had a quieter spell.
Xbox Ready's strongest daily momentum belongs to an older upload, the October Call of Duty Short "Ask me how I know MW4 is out today #gaming #xbox #callofduty". The newer business discussions have company from a much shorter reminder of release-day gaming.

What viewers say
I honestly dont know if people are that exited to buy next gen console, I really hope prices will be adjusted
@vcyberbeastvSee it on YouTubeI think we need a commitment to continued support on the series x consoles for people to want to spend that much money on a piece of hardware that may be replaced in the next 2 years.
@wilks9391See it on YouTubeI agree with Ray that Microsoft and the gaming community should give Asha Sharma more time to fix Xbox's situation. The question is: how much time? For now, I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and wait and see what happens.
