Xbox is in trouble if UK splits are anything to go by. UK is a region that is generally favourable to Xbox. EU is even more slanted to Sony and Asia is pretty much entirely Sony (in terms of PS:XB ratio).
Nier: 89% (UK) Hitman: 75/20 (UK) Outriders: 83/17 (UK) ME:LE : 68/32(UK) Biomutant: 71/29 (UK) C2077 (2020): 62/38 (WW)
70/30 in the UK most likely means 75/25 WW. If the title is JP and has a notable audience in Asia then you are looking at 80-90% of sales on Playstation.
To put this another way. 70% of nearly all third party games sold on consoles happen on Playstation. 80% of all (EDIT) third party JP games sold on consoles, that are not on Nintendo, happen on Playstation.
Sony have not dominated the console space like this since the PS2 days. Not even PS4 had such massive marketshare in terms of games sold.

Because of 360? 1) one gen does not mean they were generally big in the UK, 2) I replaced countless consoles when I worked for GAME, and the majority were new sales. Point is the lifetime sales are not clear cut, I say divide by two and there is the true sale numbers. RROD makes it very murky.
