The PS5 and Xbox Series X/S thread

I wonder if MS will jump the gun on the next gen early. Game Pass finally seems to be starting to deliver the steady stream of new releases they promised all those years ago, but it's happened too late in the gen for them to make the ground up. A new console might put them back in the spotlight again, especially if it's more reasonably priced than Sony's ridiculous PS5 Pro.

I'm still happy with my Xbox, and have never really been tempted to jump ship to PS5 - 90% of what I play is available on both platforms anyway. But I'd like to see them pick a strategy and stick to it, and I hope that involves selling consoles and making games.

That's interesting. I was in CEX yesterday and wondered why the couple of Series X's they had were marked up at RRP.

I think the best hope for Sony is that they'll be kept in check by Steam/Steam portables and the upsurge in mobile gaming some regions have seen.
