Gamasutra: As all heads turn to the (pre-)sales of the upcoming nextgen consoles, Xbox One and PS4, the broader strategy of both PlayStation and Microsoft is easily overlooked. Continued use and sales of the current gen consoles Xbox360 and PS3 and their games could determine who comes out the overall winner. There are several reasons why Microsoft, deliberate or not, could well outperform Sony in the holiday season and the quarters to follow, despite lagging behind in the next-gen pre-sales charts.
While many are fans of the Honkai Star Rail story so far, The Nerd Stash believes that the deaths of Robin and Firefly no longer carry much weight.
Wardens Rising is looking like a promising new take on the ARPG genre, especially when played with friends.
Exophobia is brings back classic alien blasting today with a new demo on PC and eventually with a full release on July 23.
Everyone preferred Microsoft this gen and now look at it, Sony is the clear winner this gen.
so this means Sony all the way?
If current gen holds the key, then Ps4 is winning next gen again. As usual.
I've heard every single spin possible since Xbone reveal. I'm really looking forward to the less sells spin. I find it entertaining how Xbox fans and shills are scrambling desperately.
Except that PS3 pulled ahead this year and has outsold 360 every year on market other than 08 and 11. PS3 has sold at a faster pace ever since it came out and at a higher price no less. Also it sold more when its online was a mess and it was $200 more. It's outsold 360 by almost 2m this year alone. It actually has had good exclusives all year (LoU, Sly, Ninokuni, GoW, Beyond, Puppeteer, Rain, Ratchet, GT6, KH HD) while Xbox has had...Gears? A man sees Sony dominating legacy sales again as they always do (see PS1 and PS2)
