"Today, PlayStation revealed that its PS5 has sold 40 million units. Microsoft doesn’t share hardware numbers typically, but court documents, math, and slides from an ID@Xbox in Brazil seem to suggest the Xbox Series X|S line-up is around 20-23 million units sold globally. That essentially puts the PS5 at a 2:1 advantage against Xbox, but perhaps the split is even worse than that beneath the surface. "

    Xbox hardware is fine, games are fine, controllers are excellent (long battery life), price is fine…

    It’s the brand image that’s shit. All thanks to random naming system that erodes any brand loyalty someone would have.

      Yeah. I stopped buying XBox after they let my account get hacked and restored none of my purchased content.

      I occasionally consider giving Xbox another try, but then the whole tiers of systems and naming nonsense takes long enough to parse that I remember why I stopped buying Xboxes.
