Yes. I think the sales difference between PS and Xbox in 2024 will be bigger than in 2023.

Because PS5 didn't have the stock issues fully solved during the whole 2023 and they will have during the full 2024.

I think people will also see that most Zenimax and ABK games will continue coming to PS5 and PS+ (some after console timed exclusivity) even if acquired by MS, and that PS5 will continue getting way more great (some timed) console exclusives than MS, plus PS5 will continue having extra exclusitve perks PSVR2 and PS Portal (which I assume may get cloud gaming this year, once they release it for Android). So most people will keep prefering to buying PS5.
There was absolutely no stock issues for PS5 in 2023 outside of the lead up to the revision relaunch.

I reviewed it and you're right, I got my dates wrong:

Sony announced the supply issues were solved in December 2022, what they were specting for the 2nd half (and Christmas quarter to be specific) was another thing: to see PS5 outselling again the PS4 launch aligned.

Normally December is higher but PS5 sales in November is higher than normal because of they just launched PS5 Slim launched that month. Also PS5 didnt have any discount in December like Series X.
Makes sense, yeah forgot about the launch.

This guy shifting to comparing the results to previous months instead of YoY is completely demented and clearly made to undermine how much better the PS5 is selling compared to last year.

Full year report in UK should be tomorrow

6.9 million digital and physical games were sold in the UK during December, an increase of 2% over the same period in 2022.

This is based on GSD data, which tracks all physical game sales plus digital game sales from most major publishers.

It's a strong result when you consider November and December didn't feature too many big new releases. EA Sports FC 24 reclaimed No.1 for the month, and was boosted by some pre-Christmas sales activity.
November's No.1, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, falls to No.2 in its second month on sale. Meanwhile, Hogwarts Legacy and Super Mario Bros Wonder were particularly popular Christmas titles, as both games saw a big jump in sales month-on-month. It was the strongest month for Nintendo's new Mario game since it released in October.

There was one new game in the December charts, which was Ubisoft's Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, which debuts at No.8.
According to GfK panel figures, just short of 500,000 games consoles were sold in the UK during December, which is 2% up over November and 7% up over the same time last year.

PS5 was the No.1 console once again, but sales did fall 19% over the month before. Nintendo Switch is the No.2 format with a sales spike of 39% over November, with Xbox Series S and X at No.3 with sales up 6% month-on-month.
In terms of accessories, 2.07 million add-on products were sold during December, which is a huge 63% jump over November and 10% up over the same period last year. Strong console sales meant that controllers dominated the charts, let by the White (No.1) and Midnight Black (No.2) DualSense controller. Strong sales of PS4 in December saw the DualShock 4 re-enter the Top Ten at No.7.
