| Azzanation said: Not these days. When you have two identical consoles with a library that offers 90% of the same games. Than the more attractive the powerful console looks. Why do you think the PS4 sold so well especially at launch with very little exclusives separating the two. Similar prices yet one console offered slightly better preformance. |
Let's kill this stupid statement once and for all shall we?
Here's the full list of launch titles that were shared across both console, and the math to calculate the percentage of shared games for each console.
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
Battlefield 4
Call of Duty: Ghosts
FIFA 14
Just Dance 2014
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
Madden NFL 25
NBA 2K14
NBA Live 14
Need for Speed: Rivals
Skylanders: Swap Force
PS4 launch titles: 26
XBO launch titles: 22
PS4 launch titles available on XBO: 11 (42%)
XBO launch titles available on PS4: 11 (50%)
Neither console had over 50% multiplatform titles between each other, so yeah, you can take that %90 nonsense and burn it.
PS4 sold more, because it was cheaper, better, had more games, had better exclusive games already shown off for the console, and a long standing record, even on their worst performing home console, of providing the best range of games on any system, let's not forget that the PS3 which was the laughing stock of the gaming world for the first 2 years on the market on account of it's 12-16month launch delay, prohibitively expensive price and a media constantly poking fun at it.. despite all that still clawed back the massive lead the Xbox 360 once had and finished it's generation slightly ahead.
This gen they launched neck and neck, and ever since the systems launched the PS4 has consistently expanded that lead worldwide every single week, the Xbox hasn't clawed back any of that lead and continues to fall further and further behind.
The writings on the wall and it's clear as day, PlayStation is a stronger brand.
