Is Xbox dead?

The Ps5 logo has triggered more hype than the new XBox trailer.

and with Exclusives, Sony has been in the lead for years.

How does Xbox want to compete against God of War 2, Spider Man 2 or Ghost of Tsushima? With Halo and Sea of Thieves?

and now you have the possibility to play Xbox games on the PC with the PC-Pass? Why should someone buy me an XBox now?

I think Microsoft has noticed that they can no longer catch up with sony and want to direct the players more to PC

So

I wouldn't say now. The new Xbox is praised more on Facebook than the PS5. But is probably also due to the coummunity. I know quite a few XBOX players but also a lot of PS4 players. Both think their console would be cooler, but I think in the end it's a matter of opinion. Everyone lives in their bubble. I have both consoles so I don't care either way haha and will get the two new ones but yes everyone has to know then.

as

Yes, but the fanboys will continue to buy Xbox.

An

With PS-now Yes, Sony has a similarly attractive offer for PC players - at the moment
"only" streaming - but that's how it started with the xbox. But I hardly see any disadvantages when streaming vs. The right console - especially with 30fps targets, the input lag and co is so high that streaming doesn't matter anymore.

As a PC user, I see no point in buying PS5 or the new Xbox, at least as long as you have decent internet for streaming. (I assume anyway that in future you can also play the Playstation exclusive titles without streaming on the PC. This is actually the logical conclusion for a probably more expensive console.

"Hype" is not measurable, but the Playstation has always had more fiery supporters (aka fanboys) than an xbox, for example. - the volume of these people says nothing at first.

as

Only what does a console bring for which the content is bad or insufficient?

almost every Xbox game is also available for PS4, but not the other way round, the performance is normal 1: 1 of the consoles, everything else is hardly noticeable normally and no statement but the Xbox controller is better in the hand is nonsense, I buy it no console because the controller is awesome.

as

The one with the exclusive titles I don't think that's exactly what makes the PS4 so good and what brings a lot of money.

even Google Stadia will flop sooner or later, that was so hyped before it came on the market and now it gets so excited that nothing works properly and does not have the promised performance / quality

So

Everyone has their own specifications. While the other only buys a console because of the games, the other just finds the button on the controller nicer or something else everyone has to decide for themselves, so it's not that bad. Sure, the games are a big point, but it's about what you feel more comfortable with and where you think 'That suits me! 'If someone thinks he really wants a XBOX because he just thinks the case is awesome, then you have to put up with it so everyone feels different.

You buy a console for your exclusives, or story-rich games that PC does not offer.

Of course, a PC has more power, but what can I do if I can't play the games I want on it?

An

It works, I use it myself, works without problems - hardly any difference to playing on the console can be determined. However, I only have a ne ps4 slim - none per.

No, what the Playstation had done so well was the price point for casual gamers, the exclusive titles are no longer there, you can play them here on my PC without having to own a Playstation. With the rising prices for the production of such games, it is also important for the series co-produced by Sony to reach more players, after all, the games have always been what Sony made money with. They had already paid for the consoles in the past.

The Sony goal must be to sell as many games as possible, on their own system and on systems that are not directly comparable. So basically be the king of the consoles and at the same time sell as much of the games as possible, the PS-now is already much too attractive anyway - I can play the complete product catalog for under 10 euro a month and don't even need a console for it. I can do that for 4 years soon and will not even get the price of PS4 pro…

ti

I also believe that the exclusive title will die out.

And I also believe that game streaming will dig up the market for consoles. Just think of the economy of the whole. How many consoles are there and how many are used at the same time?

An

Can I? Everything that comes on xbox I can play on the PC, and Playstation via PS-now as well.

I'm giving you the fact that the PC does not offer any story-rich games - it has nothing to do with reality.

ba

I don't have any good exclusives on my PC, and all the other games that you can play on PC play the cross-console games like the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077.

it's all about PS vs XBox, why do PC players always have to get involved in the console war.

almost every console player has a PC at home anyway

as

The exclusive titles are not anymore, you can play them here on my PC without having to own a playstation

ok stupid question, how can you e.g. Play The last of us, which is only available for the PS4 without PS4 on the PC?

So

In the end it is as always. Each console has its advantages and disadvantages. At this point in time, it is definitely not yet possible to name which of these will be exactly. What you think you know at the moment is most likely only from the rumors.

And besides, in my eyes there's nothing stupid than having Heini's consoles. In the end we're all gamers and should all respect each other. Whether it is on the X-Box, PS or PC.

Ma

This can't be predicted and Microsoft brings enough money, perseverance and obviously willpower.

It is only logical that the fan base as well as the media of the much more successful PS4 celebrate each info and also attract more attention.

As far as the exclusives are concerned, I agree with you. But on the one hand some One titles are very strong Exclusives, apparently you can't think of any, and on the other hand it is not known whether surprising IPs will be worked on.

The fact that all Microsoft titles are also available on PC via Gamepass also affects the current generation. But not everyone has a potent gaming PC at home. The mere thought of being able to play the new Microsoft flight simulator on my 55-inch 4K HDR TV with a Series X certainly doesn't just bring tears of joy to my eyes.

So wait and drink tea. The new Microsoft console is always interesting.

An

You subscribe to Playstation + and do the streaming they offer on your PC. https://www.playstation.com/...now-on-pc/

It's been a while. Therefore console is obsolete if you have a suitable connection.

An

Jo, you have no idea about PC gaming and what and how many games there are. Your first paragraph is nonsense.

You call it console war - I don't care - I don't care what you buy and don't buy. But you had written "and now you have the possibility to play Xbox games on the PC with the PC-Pass? Why should someone buy me an XBox now?" I made reference to the fact that I had the parr good Playstation exclusives too can just play on my pc. (link is above)

No, by far most don't have a decent PC at home, why else should they use a console? Makes no sense.

An

Strictly speaking, to add to that, you can even do more than with the ps4 - since they stream the PS4 pro version and can also stream Playstation 3 and Playstation 2 games…

ka

Hardly anyone buys the console for just one game.

Ma

Well then I'm lucky that numerous games will probably appear on it.

ka

You highlighted the flight simulator so. But there are not as many simulator fans as you might think from the hype. Most will watch a few lets plays and see that the simulator is too boring for them.

Ma

This was an example.

If you had read my text carefully you would have noticed that there are more exclusives and certainly also some will appear.

ka

When xbox catches up with the playstation at the exclusive games, I eat a broom!

Ma

That's not the point. Little fanboy right?

I have both a One X and a PS4 pro. I play everything on the One because it is technically better and I only use the PS 4 for the exclusives that the One also has.

I have been playing on consoles since 1989. Starting with a NES via Segas Dreamcast, Playstation 1 and two. When the first Xbox appeared, I switched there. So my entire circle of online friends is at home on the Xbox.

Therefore I will also buy the Series X at the start and possibly a PS5 later.

A little tip, if you actually think you are a die-hard console, it would be helpful to think outside the box. Because all systems have their reason for being without badly speaking the others.

Za

The same applies to Playsi and PC. So you won nothing.

NA FOR THE EXCLUSIVE WHAT IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?

The PC is for competitive gaming like CS: Go

ba

I don't think many celebrate the flight simulator

Ab

Me already, I'm already saving for 1000 2TB hard drives XD

An

Again - what exclusive?

Rather, there are casual games for pc than competitive games… As I said, you have no plan of what you are talking about…

ba

I'm talking to a wall as it seems.

No you don't read my posts.
