Some retailer are saying they sell 14 PS5 to 1 xbox currently.

Europe isnt buying Series consoles, at the rate it was the One.


Then we go into black friday/christmas, and all the PS5 sales here with nice price cuts.... it’s gonna be a slaughter come end of year, when you compaire the PS5 to XBS.

There are plenty of people expecting Xbox to “win” BF in a lot of regions including US, UK and Mexico because Amazon rankings say otherwise, but I reckon they’ll get a reality check. 

They might in the US, mexico....  But the world is a big place, global market is bigger than just takeing the crown in the US.
So even if you pull off a slim "win" in say the USA, rest of the world, will weigh in, and push the scales heavily in the others favor.

Basically Xbox cant afford to not try, in other markets. That should be obvious by now.
Its time to put in the work.
