There is nothing nonsensical about either Svennoj's take nor the thought of Series XS peaking already. I'm tired of people acting like condescending dicks whenever they read something they don't like or agree with.
There are worrying signs about Series XS's performance. The usual fans and offended defenders told us to that Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5 will push so many consoles, with some implying they were bigger system sellers than anything on PS5 before 2022. Look how that went... came and gone like the wind. I'm pretty sure Starfield will be a different beast, but let's not pretend that it's guaranteed to be such a massive success and have a strong or long lasting system selling effect when Halo and Forza combined didn't.
Who's to say a likely improvement in Series X's production will make up for Series S decline or PS5's availability and hype? Are we even sure they're even moderately improving? Series XS has a lot going against it right now, and Microsoft focusing less and less on console in favor of going broader will cost some hardware sales. PC may eat into Series XS's potential more than the average person thinks. Starfield may not have an explosive popularity or just sell primarily on PC, PS5's marketing and momentum might overshadow and dwarf Series XS, and the ABK deal could fall through. A lot of things can go wrong, but also a lot of things can go right or better than expected. |
I'm sorry in opinion it's just such a ridiculous assertion. Not only do they have a lot more exclusives coming out this year than last, but a lot more games in general are coming out. Outside of everything getting delayed to next year I don't see this year being down.
I see you're not calling out people saying things like most who want starfield have already bought an xbox. Going by that logic I could say the ps5 will be down because everyone who wants the new spider man already got a ps5 or something, but that would be ridiculous.
I own all three consoles so I'm not really into the childish console war crap.
