I couldn't care less about how many studios Xbox Studios have.
What I do know is that half of Playstation Studios is outputting amazing games, over and over again.
Third Party games are also amazing, like Hogwarts Legacy, Final Fantast XVI and FFVII Remake, Resident Evil etc... No need to buy those studios, because the games are still coming to Playstation.
Why would you want to take games away from other platforms?
Downloading games on my PS5 is way quicker than on my Series X thou.
Since when is 29 million more than 50+ million?
Sony is talking about PS+ Extra and Premium being lower, but PS+ is higher than GamePass.
Your article is a year old, and was written at a time when both MS and Sony tried with all means downplaying thenselves
Millions of players are using the PS4 for playing the fantastic exclusives which most often are Single Player.
Personally I never play online.
But in my household we have 2 PS4 and 2 PS5 shared with 1 PS+ Premium subscription.
That's the second point. Many of the PS+ accounts are shared, either through family or a friend.
Third point is the Fornite, Warzone, Rocket League players who doesn't play anything else but still...
How do you know it sold very well?
Do we know the numbers of either Starfield or the game on third spot?
You do know that Skyrim debuted on top in almost all regions, right?
So obviously being second for Starfield must be a dissapointment 😏
Especially since the games from third and downwards are old games or games without hype.
Sales for Starfield has still not been shared.
Sony have enough studios.
No need to be part of a problen someone already started.
Oh so little you know
Uhm, what?
PS+ always have more subscribers than GamePass.
Most likely making millions more on the service as well.
GamePass subscribers were supposed to sky rocket after Crackdown 3 release, then after Halo Infinite release, then Forza Horizon, then Starfield and Motorsport.
Only numbers we've seen so far is that it never reach near the targets.
Can ActiBlizz make GamePass subscribers sky rocket? Possibly, but pro...
Why would it mean that?
Like in every case, if the game is released on PC, it will be months to years later, but the initial sales (the 90%+ part of sales) would come way before an eventual PC-release.
Digitally is included, but EAFC (FIFA) is enormous here in Europe, and always win September.
And that Starfield is on a subscription for cheap gamers doesn't help it much either.
Not like PS5 consoles need a boost, it's already a bloodbath out there.
Well they lost is US as well.
So the only month month Xbox would have have any chance to beat Playstation, they lost in both US and Europe. Their hopes lays with Japan...
PS5 up 175% without any exclusives as so many tend to point out, and Series S/(X) down 35% even thou they have the best year in term of games for 1.5 generation.
It's time to let go of being a console manufacturer and go full software.

I'd say the "big" 3 was Halo, Gears and Forza and those are the games that kept Xbox floating.
But also Fable was once upon a time a good franchise.
Minecraft like, and still missed No Man Sky.
Everyone said "impossible". What dreamworld are you living in?
Many of us said it will definitely be done after a few months.
It has actually taken longer time than I thought it would, but I will absolutely try my PSVR2 on PC, when there is a good method and reason to make it work.
Luckily for both Nintendo and Sony is that the games are going to be sold to different crowds.
Didn't PS5 outsell Xbox Series 4:1 in August?
I'm well aware.
I'm one of the very few that bought a Series X just for this game. Also one of probably few that actually bought the game.
How many copies did the third most sold game in September sell?
