Why?
do you really want a updated version?
Why?
No sonys first party is nearly nonexistent.
They've put out more games though. It's like Microsoft is banking on their publisher purchases. The first year of the Series consoles were barren as the Sahara and only GamePass is keeping them relevant.No sonys first party is nearly nonexistent.
Sure. But I doubt it would be true.Why?
do you really want a updated version?
It is.Thought it was over 2x WW?
Eurogamer title is incorrect.having sold more than twice as many Xbox [One units] in the last generation
I know , i like treating rediculous statements with something equally rediculous.Come on, dude. Don't get baited. You know that isn't true.

I really hope they get the games flowing soon. If they would have ramped up first party output when Xbox One X first dropped I think they probably could have finished last gen stronger and rolled into this one with much more momentum.Yeah, Sony has just been more consistent, but Xbox will improve in that area as their studios pump out more content. Last year was the best year for Xbox in quite a while.

If the xbox one sold 50million with its issues, imagine how much better the series consoles will do. And some of those customers will be PS4 customers.
People on the forums are promoting Starfield so much, although on YouTube the gameplay gained only 3 million views in almost two monthsOught to be the same this gen, but Microsoft hyped and fooled everyone by buying all these studios. It'll probably bite them back because they haven't released anything worthy and keeps telling us next year will be their year. Even their flagship Starfield looks mediocre after the latest show.
So was PS1. PS3 didn't do too bad either.We knew that.
PS4 was PS2

Microsoft also details its deliberate decision to "mov[e] away from a strategy of 'device-centric' business towards a more consumer-centric" or "gamer-centric" service, like its subscription.
It also specifically uses the term "console wars", intimating that "due to brand loyalty", Xbox is unlikely to compete successfully with Sony's hardware even in the next/current-gen cycle as "PlayStation will continue to have a strong market position".
I'm glad you believe in Xbox so much because they don't seem to have much faith in themselves.
Don’t really get this fascination with YouTube views personally. How strong is the correlation to actual sales/interest? Do we have any data?although on YouTube the gameplay gained only 3 million views in almost two months
And you know what is a reality as well?...I believe in market realities, the zenimax acquisition is a reality, Ms intending to aquire acti-blizz in the largest deal in the history of the industry... is a reality, Microsoft creating quality hardware is a reality, Microsoft having the best sub service is a reality, Microsoft having there gaming platform connected and available through console, PC and cloud over home and portable devices is a reality.
They are delivering.
And the product is what matters.
And you know what is a reality as well?
Microsoft.
2023 will be Xbox's year.I really hope they get the games flowing soon. If they would have ramped up first party output when Xbox One X first dropped I think they probably could have finished last gen stronger and rolled into this one with much more momentum.
Because their funding isn't based on the success of Xbox, since Microsoft is a large company.MS don’t care, they could be beaten three times over this gen and will still come back for more.
Thought it was over 2x WW?

"Its issues", what issues? you mean no second hand sales, online DRM and weaker hardware? Isn't that what Series S pretty much is now? It's just marketing in your list that's different. If anything XB1 games were better and more abundant and it had the same services.The same reasons playstation gained double the insallbase of Xbox.

VGChartz tho.Your source is nearly a year old, last time i checked PS5 is at 21+million and xbox series at 15million+
What's 792?No one should be surprised by this. Last gen speaks for itself. 792 are a combination of numbers that I will never forget.
What I'd like to know is what numbers did Xbox One X reach? Did the release of this beefed up console generate any momentum for the Xbox going into this generation?
The last time I made that joke the mods gave me a 3 month warning for "infantile" console warring even though Xbox is my preferred place to play. I'm not convinced 2023 will be Xbox's year. They have all of these studios and haven't been able to get as much out the door as I had hoped. I'm betting 2024 is when they'll get a consistent cadence going. Until then they'll rely on dumping Activision's back catalog to Gamepass to keep the machine fed.2023 will be Xbox's year.
Lol, you're only forgetting a little thing... Like the SeriesX... It completely mitigates the weaker hardware of the SeriesS and being online only."Its issues", what issues? you mean no second hand sales, online DRM and weaker hardware?

Anyway I guess this court case just means more things we already knew being brought up again.
That's from a year ago September 2021
Ppl forget that Sony secured more chips at the beginning and MS allocated a bunch for XCloud.That's from a year ago September 2021
Edit: I see it's already been pointed out
If only the ps4 pro wasnt a piece of shit with the fan noise.
But the Series S is the main seller and what you are attributing to the better sales just in your next post. The xbox one didn't really have 'issues' in terms of games, services or hardware. The only thing I would agree on in your list is marketing. Series launch of games have been baron even compared to xbox one. I'm not here talking about studios but games so suggesting I'm gaslighting anyone for saying xbox one had more games is ludicrous when you're the one future promising. With xbox one by this time in the gen we had Killer Instinct, Quantum Break, Dead Rising 3, FH2, FM5, Halo MCC, Ryse, Titanfall, Rare replay so on and so forth. Now we have had barely anything and you can't convince me otherwise, I don't care what review score Halo Infinite got, I'd even chalk that up in the same category as marketing. Review scores are just that to me.Lol, you're only forgetting a little thing... Like the SeriesX... It completely mitigates the weaker hardware of the SeriesS and being online only.
Also during the xbox one gen , Microsoft had a small set of first party studios compared to sony, which is not the case anymore.
So no, its bot just marketing lol, its frankly embarrassing for u that you are trying so obviously gaslight.
And so far xbox games released since the seriesS/X have scored better then xbox one exclusives during the same time in there lifecycles.
Being worth almost 2 trillion is the reason. Anyone can look at MS's history and see how they operate as to why they are still fighting. Had Sony or Nintendo kept repeatedly taking billion dollar losses each year for two generations they would have tapped out by now given their sizes.And Microsoft still challenging sony. Impressive.
Amazing gen for sony. If only the ps4 pro wasnt a piece of shit with the fan noise. Ms totally out- engineered Sony in that case with the one X. Too bad the games werent there.
Sony swiftly corrected with the behemoth ps5 though. Still silent after almost 2 years.
really trying to earn your tag back?No sonys first party is nearly nonexistent.

I'd bet Mattrick was the fall guy on it because it was so messed up at release only Steve Ballmer could have made those dumb decisions.Don Mattrick tried to ruin xbox.
Nobody wanted an always online tv box with kinnect.
Read a bit further down, also lol how you ignore the other guy who said the same thing but with Xbox.that's actually better than we previously knew? Xbox One was closer to 60m which means it really recovered well later in the gen which really is credit to the work Phil Spencer did post 2016
really trying to earn your tag back?
And that’s why Microsoft don’t give numbers anymore.
To be fair Microsoft stopped giving numbers in 2016, across the board for everything except windows 10 installations. Whch were inflated by fored downloads.
So it's not really the XBox One that's the issue here, more the CEO.
Yeah, I don’t expect much has changed.That's from a year ago September 2021

I never said you said it was the only thing. You certainly implied the series s is a move that is making it sell gangbuster though:I never said the seriesS is the only thing attributing to better sales.
Thats like saying if xbox one had sony first party and was more powerful and the same price it would sell gangbusters.
Sonu didnt do a seriesS like console and therefore wont reap the benefits and negetives, where as Microsoft will.
