Funny how my 2 biggest disappointments of the year were by far the most covered with a ridiculous amount of media attention.

Starfield won just as many awards as Spiderman 2, so it can't be that bad. 😁

At least Playstation has Goty nominations and wins in the last 10 years whereas Xbox can go 10 YEARS without a Goty nominee. 😆

MS banning multiplatform games from gamers could be a reason.

@MRDEAD
Microsoft has announced games on steam, Nvidia, steam box Xbox, Meta VR, Samsung, Nintendo, mobile, and the cloud. Just to name a few.
That sounds like multi platform to me.

Sony has games on PS5 an a few on PC.

What platform is MS banning games from? Please explain.

You're either an idiot or completely blind. Indiana Jones was originally multiplatform then Xbox got the contract rewritten to exclude Playstation, Hellblade 2 sequel was literally on every platform and now is only on Xbox and PC.

But yeah let's pretend Xbox didn't just buy 2 large publishers and many studios to exclude Playstation.

Outerworlds 2 exclusive? Elderscrolls 6? Which will have previously been multiplatform? Ark 2? Timed Stalker 2?

@bryan

Because MS money comes from their software market like Windows, Sony money comes from pretty much 90 percent console and games. Compare xbox to PS and its a white wash for Sony. You keep making a lot of stupid points and looking more dumb as you go on.

Yup, you don't know wtf your talking. I came here back during ps3 and 360 and the 360 crowd was 10 times worse then the ps crowd these days.

Also once again ps outsells xbox by a mindfk amount of numbers so it makes sense there's more people leaning toward ps here. I'm sure there's some xbox sites out there

They think it's biased this site prefers PlayStation to Xbox. What they're not taking into account is that planet Earth prefers PlayStation to Xbox.

And yes in the PS3 days and leading up to it Xbox fans and media were downright obnoxious here. Easy worse then now.

Most PlayStation gamers now simply calling a spade of spade because Xbox is in fact currently terrible and are fairly gracious winners. There's very little grace coming from the other side.

I was also hear when the bubble system was a thing All the celebrating of metrics has now been shun by the xbox crowed aitch is funny af. They've literally had to force themselves to reallocate what the metrics of success are due to their failings in the legacy ones. Apparently winning from behind is the thing

To be honest, the only reason I'm even pro Xbox is because Microsoft bought Bethesda and alot my favorite studios are under Bethesda. Otherwise I'd be preparing to get a PS5 instead of Series S. My laptop is primarily for visual novels, JRPG'S and boomer shooters because it doesn't have a dedicated GPU to handle current gen games.

And that's what's wrong with Xbox. You don't like them for the games they made. You like them for the games they already had and took away from PlayStation. They are just cancer to gaming

This is not a positive. We all know how this year went. Pro-Xbox journalists spent the year writing damage control articles. Starfield, Redfall, Diablo 4….all busts. Forza vs Gran Turismo articles… fake trailers… just keeps going for camp Microsoft.

LOL.....Drama for 4 gamers never disappoints. Once again certain individuals pushing opinion as fact when it comes to the subjective. Whether there are actually 13 million playing Starfield or not, they made their money back on it and then some....so yes it was successful. I guess if the MS interest spike was due to negative news then Sony must have had no news this year because it has all been pretty much damage control at this point. From the leaks we've seen it doesn't appear to be getting any better next year either.
