Based Sony wins the console “war” every single time kek

Microsoft went wrong and basically handed Sony good publicity as being for the players which is ironic considering the current state of cencorship on the console. a lot of people who owned a 360 and were going to get a X 1 did a 180 to the PS Quadruple.

Basically no real competition.

Is this a symbol for the failure of Western civilisation?

Or a tool of Japanese supremacy?

Also why are japs not tarred with the nazi brush?

Cause war happens and a few decades is plenty of time to get over it, ya know, considering war happens throughout humanity every fucking century.

too bad that anniversary edition was so expensive.

What went wrong you mean. Bring back Sega and remove the Soi

>Hasn't even made it to 100 mil
Cringe desu they had no competition

deserved, it's the best console

More or less just having the rest of the competition shit the bed.
PS4 didn't do well because its was exceptionally good, it's just that all the other options were shit.

>LICK LICK LICK YES EARN MORE MONEY SONY CALIFORNIA I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE GETTING WEALTHIER
Who gives a shit about hardware sales? PS4 has ONEGAEM that has horrid frame pacing. Eighth-gen was worse than seventh, which was worse than sixth

>Basically no real competition.

Literally this. Plus its the console of choice for casuals and the base model is dirt cheap. The library is fucking awful. There's been about 3 noteworthy games but I guess you could say that about every system this gen. My PS4 is now unplugged and in my closet seeing as its now dead and won't be getting any new games.

0 competition

>war happens throughout humanity every fucking century.
we need another and not just one of those proxy pissing contest i mean full on nukes blazing.

Xbone went full Micro$hit leaving normies with no other option than to go for the "safe bet" PS4.

This console generation has been the worst. No original GTA games, boring sequels to boring games, dozens of shitty remasters rather than enabling backwards compatibility, etc. I know so many normies who only bought a PS4 for FIFA and/or NHL (swede here), and literally nothing else.

It should be no surprise that this is the generation where PC truly overtook consoles in the west.

Games.

>What went so right?
Less going right as all the others going so very wrong.

Solid console. The only worthwile exclusives apart from longstanding Nintendo IP. Sony also did the smart thing of not pandering to neonazis and pedos, recognizing that some edgy hipster fads are not family friendly and just plain unhealthy.

>96.8 million units shipped*
>still has less exclusives than Wii U which has 15 million units sold at the end of 8th gen

Reminder that the PS4 gained most of its sales from Americans and Yuropeans buying FIFA, GTAV, and Minecraft. Real sad.

Wish I grabbed a anniversary ps4 when I had a chance

I'm satisfied with just the controller since it works on PC and Switch.

>shills the Wii U for 8 months during its darkest hours
>still trying to pretend it was goid years after its death

Man, it’s hard to find a more autistic fanbase on Yea Forums than nintendies. Even soulsfags aren’t this bad.

that piece of shit can't even do 8K and 120fps

MS fucked up with the Xbone reveal and couldn't really recover from that, nobody knew about the Wii U and from a normalfag's standpoint the PS4 was cheaper to play their Fifas or Call of Duties on.

Stockholm syndrome (half the sales come from fifafags)

Zero competition

what were the good Wii U exclusives again? I only recall mediocre platinum games..

decent exclusives, costs less
thats it

Why didn’t they show up at e3?

They were afraid cause they had nothing

is this the worst library ever for a "winner?"
I can't think of any decent games beyond Bloodborne and GoW

E3 Time

Xbox fans: Muh games!
Nintendo fans: Muh games!
Sony fans: sniff sniff mmMuh sales!!

Based post.

nintendo has nothing either this year tho lmao

>muh 0 competition

there is. Its just SHIT competition. Stop letting them off the hook as if they "hurr aren't actually competing".

That would be the Wii.

>The library is fucking awful

wot? This gen has bewn based, what the fuck are you talking about?

the PS4 is the definition of soulless. Sheepish people only bought it because its popular. Literally the iPhone of the video game world.

>It should be no surprise that this is the generation where PC truly overtook consoles in the west.

It really didn't though, which is why we have these crying threads 3 times a week.

What the fuck is people point here exactly? Reminder that games like REmake sold 1.6 million copies on the gamecube with an install base of 22 million. Good games never sell as much as their console. It doesn't matter what platform it is.

Microsoft went full retard and Sony took advantage of it.

It helps when their primary direct competitor (Microsoft) enters the gen by going full retard. I'd still say the ps4 is better than the xbone but it could've been a lot closer

>bought a PS4 in June 2014 because I knew it was going to get all the weeb games just like PS3 did
>June 2019 and Snoy has neutered all weeb games for now and in the future

Boy did I fuck up.

So why did Sony decided on a partnership with MS for the future stream gaming?

With the help of google, wouldn't they be able to kill the Xbox business completely?

When’s the Sony press conference for today?

only could seem good if you've never seen a gen before HD.

Everyone else fucking up.

Bought mine with the Bloodborne release. Next game i bought was Yakuza 0. So i bought this console for 3 games: Bloodborne, Yakuza and Red Dead Redemption 2

Except im 29 and have been playing games since before PlayStation was a thing. Its a good gen. completely superior to the 360 gen.

it was that or... what? Another bing bing wahoo!?

Yeah, I got the controllor but like a fag I never opened it

you know that in ancient greece homo sex was considered the ultimate sex, right? stupid mongoloid?

I haven't played my PS3 in a year or more, right now I just want Tetris Effect to go on sale, other than that literally nothing interests me. On the other hand I play on PC and Switch daily. I really don't know what went right tbqh, especially after PS lost Yakuza and Tales to PC.

Sony lost 7th gen, despite what numbers say lmao. Half of japan buying PS3s just to save face doesn't count. And Sony only won 8th gen cause M$ fucked up bigtime and spent the past 5 years rebuilding trust while Sony shat on their users over and over.

imagine reading books about star wars... that's even worse than fantasy or harry potter.

it literally produced the most important game of this decade.
How is this not winning?

Wait what the console made a game?

Taking advantage of Xbox's early fuck up and running away with it. And then announcing and releasing the "Never Evers".
