Legends of the Game Industry

As we all know, there is a breathtaking competition between Microsoft and Sony to reach the first rank in every generation of consoles. Although most people have their own reasons for preferring either Xbox or PlayStation, they can't choose one of them as a better console. Specifying the priorities in features is the best way for finalizing the decision and buying one of those items.

In the first look, people mostly get attracted by PlayStation's design: 3-floor-design with sloped edges in PS4 Pro and a pair of wings surrounding the black core of PS5. It appears that Xbox designers are not so much into creativity and they prefer to focus on the console's name to make an actual box. In fact, this simplicity doesn't make it unattractive and it's considered as a modern-designed console box.

Sony has presented 74 exclusives for its 8-gen consoles. They may have deprived other gamers of many products and games but made nice choices for PS4 users such as The Last of Us, God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Marvel's Spider-Man. Xbox has just 11 exclusives even though Phil Spencer knew that their warrior is fighting a losing battle. Sponsoring studios to make exclusive games causes decreasing in PC gamers and Windows users and damages another part of Microsoft.

The third thing you should consider while buying a game console is its price. In this case, PS4 Pro is 100 dollars cheaper than Xbox One X because of the brand. People living in the United States usually buy Xbox because of Microsoft's reputation and matching with American services. In Asia, People tend to buy PlayStation, so they will have fewer problems with the guarantee and technical support. Europe gamers' taste is also like Asian ones and the probable cause is price and exclusives.

You may have noticed so far that why they call Xbox "The American Lord" and PlayStation "The Japanese Super-Soldier". These points may lead you to choose PlayStation but based on the latest news about 9-gen consoles, They will replace each other. PS5 will be the luxury game console and Xbox Series X will be the cheap and practical one. Therefore, it worth it to wait for the next generation of the game industry and see what will happen.
