Alot of people are really saying that the PS4 has all these exclusives coming up, I would love if they would try to name some. I would like to be proved wrong, but other than The Order and driveclub, I've seen nothing. And those two games look "meh".


E3 is a month away. Don't judge its library until then. At least your criticism could be at least justified then. We're six months into launch and there's only a couple of exclusives for each. A gen lasts 6-8 years; Would the PS3 have been your favourite 6 months after its' launch ?

Why should we do work for you? Ps4 has more games and more on the way which is why its winning in sales


Don't kid yourself. The PS4 is winning in sales because it's 100 bucks cheaper, available in more countries, and MS shot themselves in the foot with the reveal and DRM.

And just to be clear, I'm not saying the PS4 has no games on the way and that people who owned Sony systems in the past have no faith those games will come. Most certainly there will be amazing games coming, and the faith in that is justified. But it's not why they're winning in sales right now.

 

 

Also people need to stop jumping on this guy for expressing his OPINION that Microsoft has come out of the gate stronger with their commitment to games SO FAR this gen. Especially when that's a very arguably fair point.



PS3 was more expensive than 360 THROUGOUT its' lifetime, yet it outsold the 360. I don't buy the 100$ cheaper BS. If X1 was priced cheaper , PS4 would still be outselling it (Maybe by less)

Games that MS are bringing to the table are looking very promising, but I just can't justify spending so much on a system that I will only use to play exclusive games on.

Yep, better games have a tendancy to do that. I know, it's crazy

Microsoft is winning alot of people over. All that E3 DRM / 1080P stuff is just not cutting it anymore. Xbox One is a great system. Games are the only thing that matters. Everything that's happening right now is what Xbox fans said would happen when these systems released. Its gets greater later so just keep watching. Follow the games, not the hype.

Don't kid yourself. The countries MS havent launched in won't help them regain marketshare when they do launch and a much more expensive with a late start matched or exceeded the 360. PS has more brand recognition than XB and on similar price points and same countries PS > XB still... as weve seen in the month of march.

Do you belive nothing would change if the XOne was on other regions AND was $100 cheaper?

You know cheaper Androids (and Windows Phone) sells better than iPhones, eventhough iPhones have much more brand recognition?

PS4 sold 4.6 million in 4 countries (USA, UK, France, Germany)

XB1 sold ~4.4.-4.5 million in 13 countries (the 4 above + all the others it's been released in)

Now you can drawn your own conclusion
