Nintendo for sure is #1 but I'd say Xbox/Sony are above PC userbase...But then I think about the PC users who don't really talk about it.

As for the Mod team, I'm fairly sure only myself and Machia would call ourselves predominately Xbox fans, Lol. I'm a secret Nintendo fanboy though. Our boss is primarily a PC/Sony fan and his boss (Machina) I don't even know, PC? He never talks about it, Lol. I don't tend to go around asking all the Mod team members their primary preferences...

But I think it's safe to say that there are more Sony fans on the Mod team than Xbox fans and about an even split between Xbox-PC-Nintendo for the rest. I'd say the majority of the Writing team are Nintendo fans but only Trunks does the news writing, the rest do either reviews or opinion pieces, something that Trunks never does.

You're absolutely right! I was just using the logic being presented.

Eh, I'd say not necessarily, I'm sure they like that Microsoft releases their titles on Steam but there is a lot of old grudges towards Microsoft for their shitty PC efforts in the past and evidently Steam users don't want to come anywhere near Windows Store, Lol. We have stats to back that up, Microsoft straight up confirmed they're 7th place in PC Gaming Stores...That's bad.

I'd call it a bit of a grey area, Windows Store for years now has been brutally trashed by PC fans, Lol. At least Xbox is releasing good ports to Steam for the most part which is nice but I don't think that is enough to make PC fans side with Microsoft just because they give em a few goodies every year, they still have a lot of improvements to make in PC.

Watch Hoeg's video that I posted...

Sometimes I dream of MS actually making their own good games like Sony and Nintendo do instead of just going on an acquisition spree. Conker 2 would be great. But MS working to build their own IPs up vs what Sony/Nintendo do has been hashed out a billion times already. There's no convincing the people that think MS throwing a boulder is a justified response to PS throwing rocks.

Well, just as a for instance, look at the results on the latest monthly most wanted thread:

Nintendo games tend to dominate on that voting due to how many Nintendo fans VGC has. Zelda had almost 2x as many points this past month as PC+Xbox combined for Starfield. Final Fantasy 16, a PS5 timed exclusives that seemingly won't release on PC for at least a year after PS5 and likely even longer for Xbox (if it releases on Xbox at all, has been almost 3 years and FF7R still isn't on Xbox), also beat the combined PC+Xbox votes for Starfield by 2 points last month. On the forums at least, it definitely seems to be Nintendo > Sony > PC > Xbox. The article comments tend to have more Xbox friendly posters than the forums do, because there are some Xbox fans who aren't active on the forums but do use the home page to look at articles and track sales, but I'd hardly call the article comments Xbox biased personally.

Steam, despite being a monopoly on PC gaming, is always completely ignored by console warriors. Microsoft doesn't see a dime from Valve on Steam sales.

Epic Games has tried, and is ultimately failing, to compete with Steam. Tim Sweeney was calling out Valve for being a monopoly, offered 88/12 revenue splits to developers, signed games away from launching on Steam including pulling publishers like Ubisoft and EA, and somewhat Square Enix. Activision started putting their games on Epic Games Store and Battle.net.

And what has happened.....Valve didn't do a damn thing and they ALL came back to Steam. Windows Store SUCKS! They've started putting in work in recent years to improve the experience, but it is still far and away worthless aside from having access to PC Game Pass.

I was mostly basing my ranking off of the monthly most wanted results. PC games tend to get more votes than Xbox games there:

That is quite alot more points for PC games than Xbox games last month at least, and I tend to find most months go like that. Though Xbox is doing noticeably better on the April voting so far I think.

No it really isn't.

The Mod team doesn't even interact with the Writing team, the Mod team runs on Slack and the Writing team run on Discord. I don't even think Trunks has ever interacted with Machia! Trunks is not a Mod and he didn't say anything, it's completely unfair to drag him into the conversation.

Dude is straight up one of the nicest members on the Staff team and I've not once seen him get involved in an argument.

I've had people insult me before in debates, I've shrugged it off, I didn't bother moderating them because I've a thick skin but it is really annoying to see people go after Trunks because he apparently makes too many Xbox articles and it isn't the first time someone has thrown that complaint towards him in a shitty way, and despite the attacks towards him, and despite him seeing them, he never reports any of you.

Then he is dragged into this conversation with a jab at him for absolutely no reason, it is shitty.

You might be right on that, but one thing I do notice whenever I come to the site, the Xbox Empire always has 50+ new posts since the last time I visited where the Playstation Nation message boards sometimes has no new posts when I come back.

I'd also just say the news feels tilted is moreso just there has not been very many events lately.  

Been a couple months since a showcase.

Only been a couple first party game releases.  

Hasn't been any acquisitions in quite a while.

Lots of focus on the Activision acquisition. And even there a lot of people do not agree on whether any piece of news is generally positive or negative. 

Some people feel Sony is being petty for the exact same situation that someone else is just thankful that someone is putting up a fight against the acquisition.
