100%, and I hate @Bernd Lauert like a dodgy curryI agree fully, @Heisenberg007 made a well thought and well written Thread, it's not ok to just shit post on it. Be more like @Bernd Lauert and try to atleast make some discussion.

Yeah, in that case it would mean that Playstation has won (and clearly dominated) the generation.If, let's say, PlayStation has 45%, Nintendo has 30%, and Xbox has 20%, won't you say that PlayStation has won the generation?
I think that 50% market share is a good OKR for internal performance and evaluating how Jimbo has performed and expanded PlayStation. It won't necessarily be a good metric to see how PlayStation has compared to Xbox this generation (which is the main point of my post/prediction).
That was just an example.Yeah, in that case it would mean that Playstation has won (and clearly dominated) the generation.
Just for reference, the split for CY 2021 is 44% Playstation, 29% Xbox and 27% Nintendo.
The TV app for GP or chromecast like xbox dongle should help MS along. No need to purchase an S or X, not chained to a PC. If MS don't close the £1 GP trick, or perhaps that family plan takes off... I could seem them gaining a lot of casual game players whom only buy the odd five games a year (your fifa/pes, cod/battlefield, asscreed crowd). Exploit £1 trick, "set and forget" the subscription. See: sticking kid in front of Netflix subscription to watch Pepper Pig. Removed barrier console entry, court casual gamers.Yes sir
If I want to add something to this discussion, I think it's nothing but some elaborate hopium on op start, the series consoles are already tracking faster than the last generation, I think this will be closer to the PS3 360 than the last one.
That's the standard way to evaluate market share. That's also what Sony means when they target 50% market share. They want 50% revenue of all the Big Three.That was just an example.
I'm assuming you're quoting revenue numbers? That could be one of the metrics to measure the performance of each company, but revenue never paints the full picture and cannot be the sole way to judge the companies -- especially with the recent trend of aggressive acquisitions.
That only paints half the picture.That's the standard way to evaluate market share. That's also what Sony means when they target 50% market share. They want 50% revenue of all the Big Three.
i think they are in the driving seat but he generation is long and Microsoft have some excellent games still to come.They already won.
Just a quick question, how do you measure the "win"? Just consoles sales? Doesn't seem like a very good metric when both Playstation and Xbox are pivoting heavily into multiplatform, including PC.
Console sales, Software sales, Profit?
I don’t think Xbox is number 1 in any of those
Yes sir

Its already a mad rush, vendors ha to change the way they do business to get folks their PS5'sI think once sony does another showcase its gonna be a mad rush to get ps5’s this holiday (even more so than it already is)
LOL no. If anything, those releases made sure PC gamers won't ever consider buying a Playstation again. Now, they know the biggest games are coming to PC.PC ports of Horizon Zero Dawn, GoW 2018, Spider-Man and Spider-Man, Miles Morales, TLOU expands their fanbase making some of these PC
I know one PCMR guy who bought PS5(his first console) to play HFW, after playing HZD on PC.LOL no. If anything, those releases made sure PC gamers won't ever consider buying a Playstation again. Now, they know the biggest games are coming to PC.
