Let's kill this stupid statement once and for all shall we? Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag PS4 launch titles: 26 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. |
Wow theres clearly an issue with taking what is said serious and not by a figure of speech. What ever % you want to go by both consoles are very similar to eachother. To the customer there is barely any difference apart from the price tags and acouple AAA 1st party games separating the machines and im talking at launch. PS4 had both the price and power as a major selling point not games. Better or more variety of games is very debatable even to today. More games? Better games? No and no, thats clearly your impression.
I have a brother who works in the retail market chain that sells consoles and games and he tells me most customers look at preformance and price. Majority of parants who by there kids consoles buy the better deal (Price) while majority of hardcore or casual gamers buy a platform based on preformance (Power) and only the niche audience also known as fanboys buy a console based off brands and franchises.
Sony had a 1 2 hit on the sales board over its competitors and thats a massive advantage in the long run. Just look at the best selling games on both platforms and majority are the same 3rd party games leading the way. Why did the PS4 out sell the XB1 when the top selling games on both platforms are 3rd party multiplats? Well it must be something else, price and preformance maybe..
