video game So...Xbox sold 50k consoles in Europe last month

[ks_dollar]

You gays really should stop celebrating,  we can't let Sony have monopoly over gaming 

 

 

[Jay07]

It's what happens when Sony delivers classics like Bloodborne, Last of Us, Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War and Spider-man and XBox can't produce a single decent game even after buying up "half the industry". Starfield being their big play and it crashing and burning after being a clunky, dated mess is hilarious. 

 

Also, cheering on a corporation becoming a monopoly is so cringe. Aren't you a consumer? So much for fanboying consoles being late 00s.

Sadly, Sony doesn't seem to agree shelving IP and developer after developer in favor of bets on service games

 

Last of Us - has more remasters out than original titles 

Last of Us Multiplayer - shelved, cancelled?

Spider-Man, iterative sequel

Uncharted - dead

The Last of Us is getting a Part III at some point as we already know and it spawned a successful television adaption for HBO with a second season set to begin filming next year. Naughty Dog are also working on a new IP which I’m sure will serve the same quality that The Last of Us and Uncharted did. Spider-Man just released a new game this year which received both critical and commercial success and we know damn well they’re going to do more entries / spin-offs. 
 

What does Uncharted being ‘dead’ have to do with anything? Can you play that series on an Xbox? Or any of the series I’ve mentioned? No. Which is what my point was. Why would I purchase an Xbox when their exclusive games are nowhere near as good as PlayStation exclusives? It’s all down to personal preference, but nothing and I mean NOTHING Xbox has to offer will ever mean as much to me as The Last of Us and Uncharted do. 
 

There’s absolutely no reason for me to stop using a PlayStation when all of my favourite games are exclusive to that console. Sony can’t help that they know how to deliver gold after gold.

This is your comment? Yeah nobody will want to play any of their upcoming AAA titles I mentioned. 

 

 

Starfield was supposed to be the next cultural reset and literally NO ONE moved. Everyone will play TES6 on switch 2. Xbox hasn’t delivered a SINGLE notable first party title the entire generation. And you are talking about people being fanboys after your first post in this thread you said you worked at Microsoft. I have to laugh 

[Domination]

The Activision deal and Microsoft’s partnership with Nintendo really did a number on y’all mentally

[tiagol88]

Console sales last week in Spain:

PS5: 32.000 / 385.200 YTD / ~1.000.000 LTD
Switch: 6.000 / 273.200 YTD
PlayStation Portal: 5.700 / New
XBS: 2.000 / 63.800 YTD

 

Getting outsold by 16 to 1 right before Black Friday / Christmas 

Outsold by a PS console that costs 200€ that also needs a PS5 to even work

Can you not work for a company? What does actual employment have to do with fanboyism.

 

Oh and YES, EVERYONE will play THE ELDER SCROLLS 6 on the unannounced Nintendo console for the highest fidelity.  are you misinformed? Where did Microsoft say they are released TES6 on another console, the FTC documents just confirmed its exclusivity.

 

Foh friend you don't play video games.

Gamers don't care about playing with the "highest fidelity". Otherwise most videogames sold would be on PC and that's not the case.

[Better Mistakes]

Microsoft is a trillion dollar company, Sony is not and this is key to Xbox’s plan and for gamepass etc. Microsoft can easily afford the losses it makes on Gamepass, Sony not so much. If you can’t get developers to make exclusive games for you, then buy them  Owning both of the consoles, I will say the PS5 and its exclusives are better currently but I feel towards the end of this current gen there will be the start of a turn around for Xbox.

I’d skim if I was getting washed on every response as well. Hopefully Xbox throws its users a quality game to play soon, all of these 2023 year end lists, game of the year awards without a Microsoft game in sight

Sis, you're waiting on the Elder Scrolls 6 on the Switch 2  you're washing yourself with dirty rags in here

 

You know nothing about the gaming space, you're not even up on current events 

 

Maybe Microsoft will be nice and allow a streaming reliant release to your console

 

Friend, get outta here...you don't belong

I’ve literally never played the series of the game you are now banking on to save the generation for Xbox… so despite your delusions I have no intentions of playing TES6. The way Bugfield flopped I’m not sure many others do either.
 

and you actively celebrating Microsoft monopolizing the industry shows that YOU are the “gamer” who has no idea what you’re talking about. Gamers HATE your take on the subject. Shouldn’t you, Thee ATRL Gamer Guru know that…?

Sis what...what are you attempting here?  What are these paragraphs accomplishing? You're just saying things, gotta be at this point 

 

We'll see you at launch friend...don't wanna play ES6 but it's living in your head as a Switch release

Sis…most people playing on pc aren’t capable of having games running at the highest fidelity. Most 3rd party titles sell more on console while pcs can run them at higher fidelity. You even have some 3rd party titles that sold the most on the Switch, the wirst console on sale.
 

Do you know anything about gaming?

Are you new? Did you not know that literally every single medium of gaming is a power play? SIS! Its 2023!!

 

Do you know how console wars even....began? Nintendoes what Sega don't indeed name me the top five AAA third party titles that sold the MOST on switch of the few that chose to.

Last of us will have a sequel.

Spider-man is literally the 2nd game. Same studio is working on Wolverine. It’s not like they are stuck with sequels of the same IP.

Uncharted “dead”? You just complained about sequels but you’re also complaining about an IP not having a new game? There’s rumors about a studio working on a new title btw.

A new title within an IP doesn’t have to be an iterative sequel.
 

I wouldn’t call Insomniac being relegated to just low risk Marvel IP adaptions a big success for Sony. I miss their creative and exciting days. Little Big Planet, Crash, Sly… etc. The closure of studio Japan… 

 

I was a fan up to mid PS4 generation but once leadership changed they started shitting on their own legacy. We are how many years into this generation and the games still aren’t coming like they used to from them. 
 

PS5 as a platform is fine due to third parties (well, up to Microsoft acquiring COD and how that may shake out even if exclusivity is off the table), but their first party output is super disappointing to me. 

[ImpressMeMuch]

Also the console warring going on is here is bottom of the barrel tier

Half of ps studios are working on new IPs. Games take a lot longer to develop than before. It’s not a sony issue.

 

Also lol at “low risk marcel ips”. Most marvel games suck or flop even if they are good. Guardians of the Galaxy, The Avengers, the countless spider man games before insomniac took over, etc. Sony was the firs one to do a successful Marvel IP to this level so clearly its not so low risk…

[Rence]

It takes extreme delusion to ignore the fact that the Xbox gaming division is currently so far behind Sony and Nintendo then continue to bank on TES6 to be this successful juggernaut even though the future is uncertain. Y’all keep hyping it up even though Bethesda’s recent track record has been spotty 

 

Why don’t y’all support Microsoft’s recent release that’s currently underperforming compared to other first party titles this year
