Indeed. It’s great and complements an already great piece of tech!
I don't know if it'll push that many, but a good few million is guaranteed!
That gap will evaporate with the launch of GTA VI. PS5 will also have a longer life.
Crazy! So, all this time, I'm thinking these are Orchard alts. It's been Obscure this whole time.
Eventually, N4G will up their capabilities and all these alts won't make it through. Plenty of sites have it.
Okay alt. Stick to cheerleading for Xbox.
Every. Time! They compare the closing of a studio (one I liked, mind you, but they know their business better than internet dwellers) to the departure of not one but TWO major figureheads at Xbox. On top of Xbox's other problems, they are also now selling their games everywhere (not just PC).
Sorry diehard Xbox fanatics, we've been down this road before. PlayStation has closed studios. It happens. Maybe they weren't pulling their weight. Maybe they have a restr...
So ready to defend that you posted it twice.
In any event, I have a more accurate quote: "It's dead, Jim".

No consoles are NOT "basically PCs anyway". You clearly don't use both for gaming or you wouldn't say that. Just because Xbox is no longer needed doesn't mean the traditional console market is dead. Far from it, in fact. Years after Xbox is a distant memory, Nintendos and PlayStations will still be here.
Uh, the proof is Nintendo and Sony’s financials. They don’t hide hardware numbers, unlike Microsoft. You know this and still willfully take an ignorant stance.
You talk about proof, where's the proof that they've sold at least 30 million Series S/X consoles?
You could have said this more comfortably before this gen. Now? There's next to no reason to own one. ALL of their games are coming to PlayStation and/or Switch (in addition to day-and-date with PC) and they've lost a tremendous amount of goodwill in the industry.
As a platform, a traditional Xbox console will not be happening going forward. An Xbox-branded PC? Sure. But Xbox, as a sole console platform? Nah.
Show us the article/sources with these sales numbers.
Yes, it matters. This is business! Some gamers have to stop acting like it only matters when the company they prefer wants to play ball.

No, this was NOT their plan all along. They had to pivot because their original plans failed. They are not playing some 4D chess here. They lost tremendously and realize their only recourse is to put their properties on PlayStation. You need to accept that.
Sure isn’t, and wouldn’t be surprised to see more of this in the future.
Yeah, as far as traditional consoles, Xbox is done. Its fans here are clearly in denial and the new marching orders are suddenly “yaaaaay, no more exclusives”. Meanwhile, we know damn well they’d be singing a different tune had the Series consoles not crapped the bed and were doing big numbers! Microsoft dropped the ball, no way around that!
That said, yes, their strength is in software, better for them to capitalize on that. Leave the consoles to Nintendo and Sony.
You really need to go outside more. PlayStation as a brand is doing the best it ever has, Xbox is not. That “device” is going to be a PC next gen, regardless of what “name” they slap on the box. PS6, on the other hand, will be a traditional console.
Just accept that your favorite box lost and will be pivoting instead of trying to pretzel your way into complete foolishness.
It’s another one of “those” accounts. Pay it no mind!
Again you don't know what you're talking about. Daytona/SEGA Rally, as examples, never sold ANYWHERE NEAR what GT has and has never been as popular either (particularly in EU). Put out a new Daytona and GT8 and watch the latter absolutely dog walk it in sales. On top of that, most of those games are very different from one another. They can co-exist. If you want to go there, the highest selling "racing" series is Mario Kart. Hint: console. It hasn't been an Arcade + PC &...
Absolutely nothing tangible suggests that the Pro has been a sales flop. It was always tailored to a smaller market, like its predecessor.
