PlayStation vs Xbox US video game sales are pretty much back to that 6th gen PS2 > XBX gap.

Xbox Series is getting outsold by more than 2:1 in its primary market the past 3 months and that doesn't look to change for at least the next 5. Not even Xbox One was that bad.
It's going to be a rough few months for the Xbox in it's strongest market. Don't know what the problem is. Being outsold over 2:1 in it's strongest market and it's not like PS5 has had any exclusives to boost it. Better hope there's some light at the end of this tunnel and Starfield can right the ship because the situation right now is truly dire. Down in all regions YoY, worse March sales in Europe than the equivalent month for XBO and their competitor simultaneously breaking all-time records while not even having to release first party software. Xbox don't seem to be doing anything to fix it.
Played about 8 hours of Atomic Heart on GP. It's a decent 7/10 game but not really feeling it enough to keep playing. The main character is annoying. So I'm playing through Persona 3 Portable now.
