PS4 seems to be the console of choice to review console versions of multi-platform games. But that's also because the games tend to look and run a little better on PS4 so publishers actually want reviewers to use the PS4 version. So yes i guess there is bias but not really against Xbox One, but a preference for the PS4.


That isn't the reason, it has to do with which console is more popular. There were games running better on ps3 last gen over 360 and 360 still got reviewed over the ps3 and vice versa. It has to do with traffic and click bait.

Yeah, SOME games ran better on PS3 while many more ran better on 360 and Sony was boasting about the hardware superiority of the much more expensive PS3. No wonder that many gamers and a part of the media had some fun with that situation.

When Sony lost that attitute and lowered the price gap and released some killer apps, the media backed down. When the flow of great first + third party software didn't stop and the PS3 services got better and better (cross buy, cloud saves, PS+,...) it earn even more respect.

Microsoft is also on a good path by fixing former XBO mistakes, just like Sony did with the PS3.
