No, I’m just talking about Xbox owners here at MyBB, but you do have a point - PC gamers are more likely to opt for the inferior console (PlayStation) because of the exclusives, skewing the results and inflating the average IQ of PlayStation owners:

Thanks, that proves the point. PS and PC close to each other, Xbox IQ way lower.

edit, and that you again made up your own theory and inserted it in to go with your narrative

Sidenote: on your attempt at IQ insults.... you are showing off your EQ for the world to see ;)
I'm not the one that time and time again make up facts on this thread and think I'm going to BS adults into my ridiculous theories.
But you are right. Everyone writing something an a public forum open himself up for the world to see his IQ/EQ etc. Unfortunately like they say, stupid people don't even realize they are stupid. So no use in arguing it, as you would not understand.

So the next gen switch will be 12k and it will be just as powerful as an Xbox One X.
It may probably output at 4K 60 but run at an internal resolution of 1080p. I've seen people run the RTX 2090 at 8K with full raytracing with "acceptable results" and that card was running at an internal resolution of 1080p super sampled up to 8K

Ah much like the Xbox One S did, it basically upscaled to 4k but was running at internal res of 900 to 1080p.

Sorry man, couldn't hear you above all the coil whine noise

On a sad note, I didn't manage to secure a PS5. I have been checking all day and nothing popped up, didn't receive any notifications of stock either. All I can think is that the rumours were exactly that, rumours.

That is unfortunate. Keep trying, it will happen :)

If Sony doesn't sell at least 3 times the volume of Xbox's they might have something to worry about. Last round its estimated that PS4 did 155 m vs Xbox One's 43 m in the 7 years they been out. So only doing double might mean they losing ground.

Oh and just for comparison Nintendo Switch did 65 m in its 1st 3 years and still selling like hotcake taking the crown on Xbox/PS5 release last month. That might be because of stock outs but still impressive if you ask me as they not showing any sign on slowing down.

Where do you get this info from? It's been generally accepted that PS4 outsold Xbox 2:1. These numbers of yours are 3:6 to 1......

And I think the latest numbers would have been even more significant if Sony had enough consoles to sell....

My bad. I used google search results... next time I'll use 3 different site to fact check.

Edit Oops looks like I used PS2 vs Xbox sales numbers....
PS2 155 vs Xbox 43
PS4 was 112 vs Xbox one 48

So just over double the sales.
Oh well still fact remains if they just doing double they might be slipping :p

You don't need 3 different sites - this figure has been mentioned multiple times in this very thread. So you just need to read, and focus.

There will be only one winner, the same as all previous generations. It is already clear who the winner will be............the same as previous generations.
All the polls from people sitting 24/7 on MB because that are bored with their game pass, means nothing in the real world.
Stop trying to spin new conspiracy theories. Go back to the basement for the next 7 years till Whatsyoumacallit Series 360 two Z comes out and try your luck again.
Looks like there's still a "console war" raging in your mind.

Obsessed with "winning"

What do YOU win? Or the others that have this obsession with winning a pointless sales war. You're a consumer. Like all of us. You don't win anything. MS and Sony are the ones strutting to the bank.

MS/Xbox doesn't JUST push console sales like Sony.

I'm all for comparing the machines and what they can offer me for my cash. But sales means nothing because it doesn't effect us as end users. It's not a feature of the console.

If I'm correct you don't even own a next gen system. So why do you care who "wins"?

Come now bud. This isn't rugby or F1. Or the Vaaldam Bonanza angling comp.

I'm surprised too. When I voted in that poll, PS5 was winning. I think people have finally figured out that the Microsoft Game Pass just can't be beat for value for money ... and Microsoft just keeps adding to it every single month.

I just picked up the Series S on the eBucks sale on a whim, loaded up the 3 year Ultimate Game Pass offer, and have already flogged off the PS4. I'm very impressed with this whole setup.

Listen genius, this is not Dungeons and Dragons where you can make up your own story line.
I was not even active the last few days and your fellow fanboys started with all this polls and sales again, I just told them to stop with all their theories as there will only be one winner.
Uhm and sales do tell a story as to what people consider the best value for their money regarding performance, innovation and enjoyment. So If you as a consumer maybe took the time and looked at sales you would probably have bought the right next gen console. If not, you would be here on MB trying to spin theories to make your choice sound better.
Let me just correct you as it seems you cant read. I will never own a next gen console, my kids will. I don't need a next gen console(Graphics card etc) on launch as an extension of my personality. My kids will get it when launch problems have been sorted. when stock are readily available and prices have settled.

You'll get bragging rights when they see you playing games they can't. It already started with Cyberpunk... :ROFL:
