Topic	PS5 has outsold XBOX Series X\|S 2 to 1
hereforemnant 02/10/24 2:12:28 PM #21:	s0nicfan posted... It doesn't really matter. Xbox effectively won the generation by making game pass the defacto standard that Sony has since tried to copy. Plus there's the fact that Microsoft and Sony cut a deal to have Sony streaming games running on Microsoft azure servers anyway. Yes, they've sold fewer boxes, but they've effectively transformed the gaming landscape into a subscription-based service which is netting them far more money than they would get on console sales. Estimates put game pass at making Microsoft in the ballpark of $230 million a month. Edit: if I'm also being pedantic, the fact that people constantly say that a game showing up on PC means that it's not an XBox exclusive would also mean that you need to count all of Microsoft's PC gaming success when comparing their gaming divisions to Sony's. Isn't game pass losing them money right now & they're hoping to recoup it in the future? --- 3DS Friend Code: FC: 0318-7199-1150 <cite>hereforemnant posted [p:978766400] in PS5 has ou...
