this is like every journalist and YouTuber proclaiming that the ps portal would be dead on arrival and that no one wants it. flash forward and the market dictated otherwise.
that's what happens when you make silent hill great again.
yes, cause 18 million PS5s sold last year because of xbox's games... meanwhile xbox sold 2.5 million for the year...
i bet the official number is over 90 million at this point for PS5, putting it at about 28 million away from reaching PS4 numbers. not bad considering the system has only gone up in price over the years.
xbox not even cracking 500K during the holiday season is abysmal. not to mention that it sold less globally for the entire year than what it's competitor's sold in one month. yikes.
man, no on but NO ONE cares about xbox in europe.
i wonder what the global numbers will looks like. switch 2 had the edge over the ps5 in the US but by how wide of margin we still don't know. asia is going to switch 2 easily. also, i wonder if sony hit their 90 million ps5 sales goal by end of 2025.
the PS5 being only 2 million units behind the PS4 launch aligned is pretty amazing considering the scarcity at launch and the price increases.
why would something that's over matter?
it's wild to think PS5 in one region for one month will outsell xbox globally for the entire year.
imagine paying 100 billion dollars to go from third to fourth place.
fascism? wtf...
stop. talking.
no one cares anymore. the market has moved on.
"In fact, PS5 was the only console to do better this Black Friday than the previous one, with unit sales up 16% over the year before. PS5 had a 62% share of the console market during the week."
xbox doing worse than it did during black friday last year. woof.
@Foxtrot The creator of L4D, Mike Booth, didn't have anything to do with Back for Blood, and that's probably why it didn't set the world on fire. This new project just might be the successor we've been waiting for.
LEGEND OF LEGAIA! one of my absolute favorite jrpgs.
hire the Clair Obscur team to remake it.
but why? this device clearly is being developed for the mass market, it will be priced to reflect that. people need to stop framing this device as a competitor when that isn't the case. like the steam deck, this doesn't need to sell tens of millions of units to be deemed a success. it will likely be sold at a profit, and available only through the steam storefront.
while sony does enjoy a decent amount of revenue on PC (1.2 billion over the last five years to be exact) it only accounts for 1-2% of PlayStation's overall revenue. as to why DS2 is coming to PC so soon after launch, the original hit PC about 8 months after the original, so this move makes sense. the only real change here is that Sony is the one publishing instead of 505.
too bad no one cares. when the series x launched, it had the power/tech advantage spec wise over the ps5, and phil spencer and the rest of the talking heads celebrated as if this generation was a guaranteed win for them. and what happened? most of their audience opted for the lower spec series s; their audience doesn't care about beast specs or beast of a console. the fact is that the broader market had already abandoned xbox at that point. they can sell a $1200 machine all they want, it ...
