several non sony affiliated financial websites have reported the sales figures of consoles are 3 to 1 in favor of sony. also, several sources report that 50million number as sold through. and just lol at portal and psvr 2 being included in those numbers, just keep spreading those rumors.
That guy said he's not interested in fanboy wars, but he is always going on about how Xbox is better than PS in the Xbox thread. It is just laughable that he thinks VR2 and Portal count towards PS5 systems sold. He also predicts that Xbox will be the dominant platform by the end of this generation, which is just 5 years from now, but Series X and S units sold were only 21 million combined before the start of the summer,
according to official Xbox Brazil branch. You can't make this up.
Sweet baby jesus... are you serious? I guess typing anything that's not "PS5 is the best console ever! 10/10" is considered console warring.
That's why the xbox thread is more active, because it feels like an actual community of real genuine people while this one just feels like a cult for a plastic box. I've stopped posting in this thread almost entirely just not to piss people off.
I literally could not have been more transparent. There was a report by Matt Piscatella that PS Portals would be tracked as console sales and I made sure to label it as a rumor. I'm just offering a different perspective. For example we know that Sony counts God of War, Spider-man and Horizon console bundles as individual game sales and they've also stopped reporting on PS Plus subscriber numbers. Clearly Sony has an interest in making these numbers look good for the investors. Read for yourself... I didn't just make this shit up:
It's been revealed that Sony has requested that the PlayStation Portal sales will be tracked as a console rather than an accessory.

Xbox is my preferred console. I never lied about that. Same way that Playstation is your preferred console even though you post in the Xbox thread. I'm assuming that you also own an Xbox? I didn't see you post your end of year yearly wrap-ups in either thread. I still play on my PS5 daily and am in the top percentile for hours played and games completed.
My PS4 Pro sounded like a jet engine going mach 10! My Xbox One S sucked, the Xbox One X was a great console, Xbox just forgot to release games for it.
Despite having fond memories of bringing my TV and Xbox 360 over to my friends house for pizza night and 12-16 player halo with the boys and The Last of Us on PS3 being my favorite game of all time, neither of them were my console of the generation.. the Gamecube was. Nintendo just knows how to put out magical unique games that don't cost $300 million dollar budgets to make. Nintendo is pushing the boundaries through creativity. Something that Playstation used to be good at.. Sly Cooper, Jax, Ico, SOTC, GOW.... now it's just more sequels, remakes and remasters.... all to say that I have no allegiance. I play all games. How many people can say they have the Platinum for Knack 1 & 2? Surely that should buy me some street cred right?
Why do I predict that Xbox will dominate by the end of this generation? Because I'm a consumer, not a shareholder. Which console raised the prices of games and their subscription service this generation? Which console releases all of their first party games day and date into their subscription service and let's you play the game you bought, anywhere including PC without forcing you to buy multiple copies of the same game!? Which franchise is the top selling franchise of all time? Call of Duty. Which platform owns Call of Duty now? Microsoft owns more studios than PS after the ABK acquisition so they will be pumping out more games. This isn't some Nostradamus level prediction, just some basic 3rd grade level common sense. Whichever console brings you the most value and joy is up to you. It doesn't have to be just one.
