Xbox series S/X getting outsold by what was Microsoft's worst gen? How?????

piroh12h ago

That's the result of releasing every single game on PC day one.

PS5 - 289,885
Xbox - 131,095
...and this is America🤔

I think its also a result of all the lies and false promises of MS. Their reputation has caught ip with them and a lot of people simply don’t trust what MS says anymore.

If you wait a year or two you can get most Sony made PS5 games on PC. So on a PC you can play PS5 and Xbox so called exclusives plus a endless amount of PC games.

cant make that shit up.

And remember Series S makes up the majority of these pitiful numbers. What a joke....

MajorLazer25m ago

Series is still a couple of million off 30m units sold 🤭

Sgt_Slaughter7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

Xbox Series combined still getting outsold by a seven-year-old tablet (with even older architecture)

Power means nothing when you don't have games.

Hofstaderman5h ago

And this too after a killer showcase. Lets see what impact gamepass COD has had in the coming months....I expect it will not be that much.

Golfwavy5h ago(Edited 5h ago)

Glad you admit that the showcase was killer 👏👏

Are we now pretending that 30m consoles sold is bad?

COD on GP will likely boost GP subs quite a bit.

@golfwavy

Alot of us said and admitted to that. This isn't new.

I don't think cod is gonna sell any more consoles for Ms or push subs much. Far as we know cod still on Playstation for a long time. Ms isn't gonna wanna keep xbox afloat to see if cod finally turns the tide.

Golfwavy5h ago

Switch is a beast.

PS5 won’t even catch Switch. And Switch will probably break the PS2 record.

shinoff21833h ago(Edited 3h ago)

That what happens when you force combine your console market and the biggest/only handheld market

blackblades5h ago

Power means nothing period looking at Nintendo and what they achived but yes without games any system wouldn't succeed. 1st party 2nd party 3rd party they all is needed.

talocaca6h ago

I had a Series S and I sold it.....literally no reason to have an Xbox console at this point. At least make it compatible with Steam or something...

shinoff21833h ago(Edited 3h ago)

It's really dope for emulation. It's better with ps2 games then Sony is. Which is a shame but I'm hanging on to my series x for this reason and maybe see what they might have at some point.

ocelot072h ago

It's actually a pretty good emulation console. I had a s then got a x from a friend. But since I wasn't using the X it felt a waste and then sold it. Then got a s again for £90 the price of a second hand PS2 solely for emulation.

jznrpg5h ago

If the PS5 Pro wasn’t supposed to come out this year I would have ought another one for my kids. I may end up buying a slim anyway for travel but I’ll wait for after the Pro as I might just lug that around

Golfwavy5h ago

Lugging around a games console!?

Just buy a steam deck.

shinoff21833h ago

I mean it's not to difficult. Steam deck doesn't interest everyone.
