    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    Your bag of 'shite' comment destroys any shred of objectivity in your argument. There is no point in getting into an emotional discussion about how much you love PlayStation. The PS5 DE is not a better value than XSS especially since you can't buy one easily. More expensive games, sole source...

    Discussion 2022 might go down as the worst year ever for Xbox 1st party game release

    Dude I hate to break it to you but PS Now was getting stomped by Game pass for years. That's the fact. Look it up.

    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    When comparing random Android phones to iPhone perhaps but comparing Samsung phones to iPhone the argument changes. It isn't a great proposition to argue 'we have the most expensive premium product' when in many cases it isn't obvious. I actually prefer the build quality and acoustic profile of...

    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    Game consoles to a casual gamer or a kid see the value as objective. When you see the price and find out you can still play all your favorite games from Fortnite to CoD with faster load times you'll grab the cheaper option. When MS still charged for online play on free games there was an...

    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    It is so weird to argue a more expensive system is the better value. Regular consumers don't care about how advanced the controller tech is only that they can buy one easily for a good price and have plenty of options on where they can purchase. VR is niche and you know it. Didn't Kinect have a...

    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    Price is one component of value. Xbox also has superior backwards compatibility, offers more flexibility with digital game purchases and 3rd party peripherals, and their game sub services have features PlayStation services lack. I also appreciate not having to pay for quality of life features...

    Discussion 2022 might go down as the worst year ever for Xbox 1st party game release

    Are you talking about the recently revamped PS+ that had to add PS Now with their online service to make their numbers look better? And you are talking to me about regurgitated marketing points? Game pass was far more popular than PS Now until Sony rebranded it to make themselves look better...

    Analysis The Series S/X are getting cheaper while the PS5 is getting more expensive

    Yup the Series consoles are offering a superior value and those lower prices will certainly make it much easier to reach a wider audience.

    News MS: PS4 Sold More Than Double As Xbox One Last Generation

    Do you think Xbox will outsell PlayStation in the largest game market?

    News MS: PS4 Sold More Than Double As Xbox One Last Generation

    This will be the baseline for this generation. Anyone expecting another 2-1 sales split? PlayStation did it once they should do again.

    Discussion 2022 might go down as the worst year ever for Xbox 1st party game release

    Many times people completely make up the Xbox gaming outlook. They also overestimate how important first party software is for Xbox's success. All that talk about how Series consoles didn't launch with tons of first party games and it still sold well. Game pass is the real killer app and it...

    He was saying good luck expecting Sony fanboys to have a serious conversation about anything Xbox. Best to not engage if possible.

    Discussion 2022 might go down as the worst year ever for Xbox 1st party game release

    Yup this year hasn't been good for Xbox 1st party releases. It has been a generation since Xbox relied on 1st party for success though as evidenced by their continued success selling consoles and promoting Game pass. The biggest game of the year is on Xbox so despite all the delays their is...

    Xbox Microsoft Earnings Q4 2022

    Interesting for you to say this yet the biggest complaint against Game pass time and time again is that it isn't sustainable something no gamer should be worried about. The whole hiding numbers thing is silly message board war stuff. Apple doesn't report the number of iPhones they sell and no...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Supporting harassment is wrong and that is a sentiment I completely agree with. It is sad that some people and I am not naming ANYONE in particular would be MORE upset at a person's opinion about a new heat sink on a console than death threats to that person. That idea really bothers me. I hope...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    I'm sure in your mind it was Xbox fans that doxed the YouTuber over PS5 right? False flag operation perhaps? You do talk about fan fiction all the time so I get it. If the mods deleted my post how does it fit the narrative that it's only PlayStation fans that are persecuted? You talk about...

    They you can happily ignore them. I on the other hand will take advantage of the superior value and features of their platform. Win for everyone.

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    It is quite astonishing to see the level of pure emotion many of their fans have. I see why many of them threatened Austin Evans and his family when he gave his opinion about the smaller heat sink in the PS5. People went into meltdown. It's not healthy. You'd think video games would make people...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Blah blah blah. Facts are facts. I clearly listed features I prefer on Xbox that in most cases PlayStation doesn't offer at all. I have not mentioned how I saved money? I was able to get Forza Horizon 5 and two expansions for $44 and play the game early. I also can play the game on my PC with...
