Wow, Xbox Series X/S isn't doing too hot in it's own territory compared to the PS5 (as in Microsoft is an American Corporation while Sony is a Japanese Corporation). Is this just because the PS5 has better exclusives, like Spider-Man 2, Final Fantasy 16, God of War: Ragnarok, than the Xbox Series X/S, like Halo Infinite, Starfield? I feel like there are more reasons than just that because the two, Xbox Series X and PS5 have the same specs (in fact Xbox Series X has better specs) with PS5 having better load times. Is it because Sony has been producing movies that give it recognition, so people buy PS5 because they recognize the brand?
Or is it because of a simpler reason like how PS5 is more catchy than Xbox Series X/S, thus it sticks in people more unconsciously indoctrinating people to buy PS5?
