    I have no idea how the PS5 is doing so well. I have had both the PS5 and the XSX since launch (yes, I got VERY lucky) and I almost never use the PS5. The Xbox is a significantly better box for doing everything besides gaming (like watching Netflix, etc), the controller is about 100x better, they’re actually available to buy whenever you want, Gamepass is way better than PS+ equivalent, and Xbox has more exclusives.

    Spiderman 2 in a couple months is going to be the first real reason to turn on my PS5 in ages.

    Sorry, just ranting a little here. I have been a PS fanboy for ages and the PS5 being so meh is pretty disappointing. I totally agree that Sony sat on their laurels while MS improved. I firmly believe that if more games had cross-platform support, Sony market share would tank. Being able to play with friends on the PS4/PS5 is the main reason I even have a PS5.

      You dont need to pay for XBL to do multiplayer anymore? Haven’t touched Xbox since the 360.

        Honestly, I’ve had Gamepass Ultimate for so long, I’m not even sure anymore. Maybe, tho? I can edit that bit out… doesn’t make a huge difference to the rant. lol
