I know this news is silly but it's actually really shocking to me.

 

[Psyrgery ES]

Microsoft: Claims their console has more flops than the competition
Sony: we'll balance it out with instagram and twitter likes

13,2>12

Game over Microsoft

 

[ToxicPhantom]

I wonder what the MySpace numbers are. Surprised no one tried to gloat over those numbers.

 

[The Pleasure]

CBOAST bringing more ps tp the ps5 hyPes. The x is only for XseX

 

[SNG32]

I don't even know why this is newsworthy PS4 is sitting at over 100 million right now. Of course they are going to have more likes than Xbox.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

The fact that GAF is already filled with this much console wars bullshit before the consoles are even out tells me that this place is going to absolutely unbearable by the time they're out.

 

[MDSLKTR]

Me (PC player) watching the console wars

Basically. All next gen games are confirmed on pc the same day they're announced

It’s just people having fun. Relax homie

 

[DeepEnigma]

Makes sense.

A huge chunk of the PlayStation audience skews on the younger side -- and we're talking on a global scale here, so lots of dirty Android users.

Microsoft has a smaller audience overall, but that audience is older, typically makes good money and own iPhones.

 

[Southern Gentleman]

Imagine looking forward to Halo Infinite.

This is pretty close to Hilary's "deplorables" comment, but I know you were just joking though.....Hilary was not...or are you?

Just goes to show the massive gap between the two. It's not a rivalry when one side always wins.

Could have fooled me.....Someone told me MS gave this gen away to Sony on a silver platter.....I was thinking that maybe MS won all the gens before 360 including the 360 generation.....Precedent had to fuel such thoughts I was thinking......

PS5 logo ‘breaks Instagram image likes record for games’ | VGC

Sony’s next-gen console post seemingly the most liked of all-time from a games company…

www.videogameschronicle.com

"Less than 48 hours after it was posted, the PS5 logo image has amassed almost five million likes and 136,000 comments, easily surpassing the second-placed image post, Fortnite’s Avengers Endgame crossover announcement from April 2019 (2.7 million likes).
The analysis includes what VGC understands to be the top 20 most popular video games and video games company accounts and does not include video posts or influencer profiles.
Below Sony’s PS5 post Fortnite dominates the most popular image post rankings, with over 150 individual posts each receiving more than one million likes.
At the time of publishing, Xbox’s Series X reveal post has just under one million likes. The FIFA 20 and FIFA 19 cover reveals have 1.5 million and 1.1 million likes."

You can say what you want, but Xbox PR has work to do.

 

[PocoJoe]

It's usually the brain dead consumers that can't tell the difference and lack the will to research the new console.

And +50% of humans are "braindead".

So it is even more braindead to fight against that instead of naming stuff so that even derpiest derp understands it, right?

Even my smart gaming friend asked "what is that?" When I sent him the pic of new xbox with text "this is new xbox series x haha".

Naming is Bad, deal with it.

If Sony would name next Playstation as "playstation series pro" it would be as stupid

 

[mejin]

Every day, Spencer is talking some shit and paid articles are coming regularly to promote xbox. So, they are already working hard.

 

[Von Hugh]

This is super interesting, OP.

Possibly the best time around to get the popcorn and drinks because we're going in on one hell of a ride!

I know.

That makes it even worse, given that Sony literally just has to change a 4 into a 5 and create more hype.

 

[Tiamat2san]

Cool, important stuff.

 

[CameFromNearFuture]

Are you a malfunctioning bot or something?

At this point, ps5 better be 9tf for no increase of suicide rate. Otherwise, the internet bullying and memes Will have no mercy on these people. It would be worse than 2013 even tho MS made a good job this time.

 

[Lone Wolf]

The series X trailer did get 9.3 million views. I think this is being a little overblown.

 

[meirl]

I think this was mostly because people were making fun of sony, just look at reddit: or

hilarious

 

[SoloKingRobert]

I may eventually get both.

 

[Carna]

Haha Xbox bad, give me likes.

 

[Codes 208]

I mean it only makes sense it would create more attention. The Ps4’s fanbase is like three to one against xbox.

 

[anthraticus]

Jesus, who gives a fuck.

lol as someone that's done work intimately across various groups within xbox, everything you've said is wrong.

Ture, I mean sony even releases android phones, even their TVs do have Android, so it makes sense.

 

[Great Hair]

 

[Otterz4Life]

To be honest I was confusing about that, and this is a problem because im a passionate gamer... Now when the costumers are casual gamers. Its a big problem

Perhaps you’re just easily confused? They’re named different and look different. What’s confusing?

 

[SleepDoctor]

A moral victory for social media likes?

This shit is basically the special Olympics . I guess sony fanboys have to celebrate something since they've been crying over the rumored specs for the consoles.

The hilarity continues

 

[pr0cs]

You have to celebrate something when the company keeps you in the dark and all recent information is 100% speculation with no concrete evidence

Yeap, Digital Foundry are going to break Papa Phil's dick if they continue to bounce on his balls as hard as they do

 

[01011001]

well negative news (which is in this case the lack of news) always draws more attention, and the pure boring nature of both what was said yesterday and the design of the logo are great potential for memes.

literally noone searches XBox Series X... let's look at a global scale of Xbox vs PlayStation

 

[JLB]

Just imagine, for one second, if rather than Sony, Microsoft would be presenting just a new logo. I think we would easily got stackoverflows everywhere counting memes about it. Brand loyalty is no joke.

Damm dude. You still pissed off from those PS numbers. Turn the page already! I hope these rumored specs are correct, just so this board can watch you beat your chest in triumph, as if you had won the lottery.

 

[The Alien]

Bikini girls aside, Instagram seems like an odd metric to measure anything by.

Trying to repeat over and over to yourself that im mad in order to try and make yourself feel like you're making a point is funny tho .

Either way i can't take "grown" men obsessed with cartoons seriously. Enjoy your day son.

 

[VCL]

because it is a meme
