Game Scoop! 658: Xbox's Incredible Comeback

[@JPD2587]

I just bought a Series S this week because of gamepass.

[@misterqwuan2530]

Quick resume is the most surprisingly amazing feature. I thought the ps5’s faster loading would be better overall but man I prefer quick resume in any situation

[@JMGauthier]

I have a PS5 and an Xbox Series S. The load time difference is negligible honestly but quick resume is amazing. Series S definitely wins in that regard.

[@dustingowens4771]

Glad this is becoming somewhat common knowledge

[@TheKindredblades]

Having both console myself, I don't really notice the difference in loading time, but I definitely miss quick resume everytime I use my ps5. It's a perfect exemple of a feature I didn't care when I didn't have it, but once I have it I can't go without.

Not sure about other territories, but over here in the UK, Xbox for at least a few months has frequently only been sold bundled with 2 years of gamepass. I imagine that has been putting off the bots from buying them up meaning Xboxes get a chance to sit on the shelf a bit longer. Hopefully when Sony have their gamepass out, they can do a similar thing

[@n2nother]

PS5’s 13.5 million *sold through* was reported through the end of September. They’re averaging 3.5 million per quarter so that would put it at around 16-17 million. If the Xbox is at 12 million *shipped* like being estimated then they’re still behind about 4-5 million. Which was about the same difference the previous gen.

[@fredjones1753]

Most of those Ps5 consoles are owned by scalpers and the actual user base for Ps5 online sales is very small. Compared to Ps4 user sales which are astronomically higher. Education my friend, Xbox is winning by large numbers.

[@ladslounge2698]

Last generation xbox was behind 2:1 and the gap grew as the generation progressed. This happened due to the shitty marketing, and the push for it to be less of a gaming machine and more of an all in 1 entertainmemt unit under Don Mattrick's leadership. This gen won't be an easy win for PS, xbox went from 2 or 3 first party studios to 23 first party studios last gen and all the games that were in development when the studios were purchased pr set up are starting to come up. Not to mention Game Pass has been a huge hit as well and Sony is charging more for their games this gen, they have had some bad PR over their crossgen support and over their whole "We believe in generations.." nonsense and back tracking. Xbox is diing almost everything right, so this generation I think will be more challenging for Sony.

[@thapunair4388]

I own both consoles and I rarely use my PS5 to play third party games just because of the convenience of quick resume, it is one of those quality of life improvements which doesn't sound like much but is an absolute game changer. Brought the series X just because I didn't want to miss starfield and ES VI expecting it to be the minor household console too. Gamepass is also a great way to discover games to buy. Ordinarily, there is no way I would have brought games like Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Psychonauts 2 or Hades had it not been on Gamepass, as it turned out, loved them and was more than happy to buy them. Saved me from having to buy some games I didn't particularly enjoy too like Halo Infinte.

[@rickybobbyroode9814]

I got a Series X and it came with Game Pass and I can’t find much to play on there myself. I own most of the good games and the rest aren’t that great. To each his own but for me a better solution is just buying games on sale in the MS store which updates every Tuesday.

[@quantumjet253]

Not being into 'social media' I'm not particularly aware of others opinions and thoughts beyond what I read on the IGN site and here (and only occasionally), so I'm overjoyed to hear that apparently there are others that would love to see this show more than once a week! Sure, maybe every day would be exhausting and unpractical but a second or third show, even if they were slightly shorter would be amazing. A couple of thoughts on the Xbox sales. When Microsoft started splashing the cash I think it absolutely demonstrated that they have no intention of being second 'best' to Sony. As many have pointed out in past discussions, the size of the Microsoft's fortune is enough that with the intention and a smart/clued up leader there's nothing stopping Microsoft from dominating any market they care to. It was always surprising that MS essentially failed last generation but I presume a lot of that was poor direction and management at the very top. I agree with Justin that I don't think we're seeing a realistic and clear view of sales/popularity because of the chip shortage and issues around the pandemic. I don't think Microsoft are quite as close in terms of fanbase and what would be genuine sales if the current climate weren't so disrupted. But I do believe Microsoft at the end of this generation will have the largest sales and be the dominant console, although not by too much. However that progression won't stop, and while I don't think the Playstation will fail, as those of us old enough to remember the beginning of gaming; large, dominant corporations are never guaranteed to stay in that position. After all, Sony were the new guys on the block once and had no background or association with gaming when they first arrived. Great show by the way, as always. Did I mention we really ought to get more each week!?! It doesn't need to be said, but the massive advantage, for me at least, this show has over all others is it feels more representative of the attitude of genuine gamers, ie. while there's clearly enthusiasm and a love for gaming, the panel aren't afraid of pointing out games, or genres, whatever. that they don't like. Too many of the others either feel like they fear repercussions from speaking against a corporation or their product (except if the game isn't developed or published by one of the big dominant corporations) or feel (unrealistically) enthusiastic because of the platform its on, and perhaps unnecessarily concerned with their audience!

[@marshman208]

I bought a series S in the Aug/Sep and have loved it, I recently found a Series X bundle at my local GameStop (by accident) and got it! I’ve recently seen more Series X on sale in store and online so I think the supply is getting better but it may be a case where a whole batch just came out. I also hope those consoles are going to people who will play them and not sell them for double the price.

You know, the reason people liked demo discs (other than having a physical thing in their hand to be excited about) was because those demos were chosen to be put on the disc - so part of the reason they want them is because of the "curated" picks. Perhaps what you could do is create a monthly, curated list of "free demos" for people to check out with links on where to download them (or in general how to get them if they are on console). I don't know, I'm just spouting stuff off to try to stay relevant - how am I doing?

I love pinball but probably not the way Sam does. From past podcasts, I vaguely remember Sam mentioning that he doesn't particularly like PLAYING them (that's not why he collects them) - or was it that he isn't particularly good at them? I don't remember, but in either case, I'm someone who absolutely loves playing pinball. If they weren't INSANELY expensive, I'd have a few myself in my game room, but alas, I have to resort to enjoying them in video game format, like that Space Cadet pinball game that came with Windows XP machines, or the NES pinball game, or Adventure Pinball: Forgotten Island (actually LOVE that one), or Yoku's Island Express. For me in particular, it scratches a very specific itch of enjoying discovering secret passageways, or that same satisfaction you get from watching a complicated sequence of events for launching something, like dominoes falling in a line which then tip a ball to roll down a tube that then moves a candle fire to burn a rope, releasing a hammer that breaks an egg into a frying pan :P EDIT: I stand corrected, Sam didn't say that he didn't like playing pinball or that he wasn't very good at them, what he actually said was that 1) he enjoys physical pinball machines as opposed to video game ones and 2) even though he plays and has friends who are in pinball league, that's not why he enjoys pinball - he enjoys it because of the aesthetics and because he likes fixing them and opening them up to see how they work.

[@Cyrribrae]

Justin is right not to assume too much from these console sales numbers. BUT, they are significant - even more so in context. Remember, the narrative in much of the last 5 years wasn't "is Xbox going to catch up?" It was more akin to, "Is Xbox going to survive?" Even in the last couple years, when Xbox had been on the comeback tour, it was still very unclear whether there would be any demand. Indeed, we had endless talks about how Playstation's launch was vault superior and how gt7, hfw, and gow were going to blow Xbox's meager halo Forza offering out of the water in 2021. People were vaguely optimistic that ps5 wouldn't outsell Xbox 2:1 like last gen lol. In THAT context, that they remain so close is actually remarkable. Demand for Xbox continues to exceed supply - and remember, these are the most in demand consoles ever! (actually PS5 may be less than PS4. Depends how good this holiday was). This is not a paper win. Ps5 demand is huge, but Xbox demand has exceeded all expectations. And that's also huge! Finally, Tina mentioned in passing that everything on Xbox is on pc too. A significant portion is available on phones and tablets. Never before has "console sales" been less important as a metric (not to say it's unimportant by any means) for Xbox. And yet they're beating records. Justin is right that we haven't seen how this all shakes out. But I think this news is unequivocally better news for Xbox than Sony. And ideally, this success continues for both. This is great news overall.

Honest opinion here: I've been a Xbox/PlayStation user since both launched. Quite frankly the OG Xbox was a pretty good console with some really awesome games (but not quite as "visible" as ps2 exclusives). Still, they showed a solid console. The XB360 really showed how much they learned and you can tell (except for the RRoD debacle at the beginning). But man, XBONE was such a mess. I completely skipped getting one that gen and never missed doing it, plus the PS4 swept the floor with it from day one. These days, however, MS finally seem to be back on track to the point that I totally prefer getting a XSX over a PS5. In the end the console giving the best value/games wins and so far seems XBOX is pushing hard to be that console. Really exciting competition will take place this year and the following.

To the point that my wife has stated "why did you even get that Playstation, you don't even use it" (a bit if an exaggeration on her part)... I think its mostly attributable to Gamepass. Gamepass games - because most end up leaving the service at some point - end up having some kind of urgency to finish them before the games I own. Beyond that, Xbox keeps releasing games on there, causing an ever-growing backlog problem for me. Because of that, I can't rationalize spending $90 (Canadian) on a new Playstation (or xbox) game, when I know it's just going to end up sitting in my backlog... So I usually end up only getting my PS Plus games, or games that are on heavy discount ($20 or less), which are very enjoyable still.

I’ll be honest. I don’t understand why IGN seems to be pushing the current narrative with Xbox. They’ve absolutely made strides, but I remain skeptical that they have fully recovered when they very intentionally omit their sales numbers. It’s always presented in vague terms that can be interpreted in the best light. This year was definitely an improvement, but almost nothing they released this last year interested me for very long. I put about 10 hours in Halo and FH5 and haven’t felt too compelled to come back to them. And then there’s the fact that they didn’t have any major games for the first 9 months of the system. It just feels like they still have a lot of ways to go to fully convince me.

If those figures are indeed true about the -1 million Xbox is behind, this could be seen as fairly impressive considering how badly the Xbox brand does in Japan, I believe around 100,000 or so Xbox Series machines combined have sold there versus around 1 million PlayStation 5 combined units, so somewhere in the world, the Xbox must be outpacing the PlayStation which is pretty big for Microsoft. Gamepass perhaps is really digging in with those sales coupled with the Series S penetration pricing model but they need to keep up with exclusive content, something Sony and Nintendo have done each generation, giving players a reason to buy their machines as the only place to play those games, sometimes by design, in Nintendo's case or having the only home console VR unit in the case of Sony.

This Friday, I'm sure they'll update a lot of these PS × Xbox talks. I'm curious watch. It's amazing how things can change in a week. I don't care much about Activision Blizzard, so it makes little different to me. I'll like to tey some of their games on Game Pass though. But Xbox's strategy could either turn out to be a good or a bad thing for the future of the industry. Right now, it seems to be a good thing. But who knows if it'll remain like that. I would not be surprise if Sony developed a new IP to rival COD.

Forza Motorsport will be Xbox Series exclusive. Not cross gen, not coming out on Xbox one.

[@Abefroman3]

Man the panel seemed almost scared to be complimentary to the Xbox Series consoles. Fanboys need to knock it off. It is a fucking plastic box.

[@pacellichapa]

Sam! Let us know if you were able to send an email from a Gameboy!

Hell ya to that Blazing Lazers theme song

Good ear!

Let’s not discount the Uncharted movie and The Last of Us HBO series boosting sales for the PS5 (despite how you might feel about those projects).

[@IZISkull]

Same with Halo Paramount show and Fallouts Amazon show.

[@matttheRPG]

@@IZISkull that’s a great point! I just haven’t seen trailers for those like I have for Uncharted. And The Last of Us is likely a bigger deal where I live since they’re filming it here.

[@IZISkull]

@@matttheRPG thats pretty sick living so close to the production. You tried being an extra?

Damon you never saw Karate Kid 3?????????????

[@IGNGames]

No, but S4 of Cobra Kai makes me want to. - Daemon

[@misterfufu]

@@IGNGames wow I'm honored by the response =) long time fan. Yea karate kid is a trilogy as I'm sure you know. They are all meant to be watched together. Don't slack Daemon. 😉

lame sponsor ad in video - much prefer the outro music!

[@marquezsi4870]

Thank you Justin for the most sensible take on Xbox 'catching up' - yes, they are having a better generation and deservedly so - but the supply and demand mismatch has to unwind before we know what is really happening.

[@sopor0]

They gen is the same 😂 😂 no games poor console sales 😂 Xbox with the bait!! Console is getting out sold 2-1 would be 3-1 if ps5 would be available 😂 no body likes a lier on the internet lil

Wow someone was just blatantly honest about the situation and didn't just continue to Flame flame Wars. These consoles will continue to sell what they produce instantly for another year or so.

[@GeniusEliteZ]

Phill Spencer DID it ! 🔥 I love the Xbox Brand so much, Gamepass, the Hardware, Games, Service, everything is so much better. Yeah and Sony still wasting alot of money on "Timed exclusives deals" for example FF Remake, Kena, Death Loop, Forspoken and they think this can hurt Xbox, these games will come to Xbox anyway, and the PS5 doesn't even have VRR or true backward compatibility. 😂🤷

[@rezaghasemi7651]

Xbox is back and its back in a big way.

[@thewirv]

Tina und Sam switched spots.. curios 🤔🤔

[@SoSickRick]

Are people going to try and get a PS5 when those games are all on PS4 for cheaper?

[@zengamer21]

I wonder how many xboxes were sold because the customer couldn't find a PS5 and went with their second choice.

[@jermelpurse3018]

To have sales that are so close would normally be something to really talk about but you have a problem with supply constraints so both companies can literally say everything we make we sell. If you really want to look at success engage in success to Microsoft this generation do you want to have to wait a little while until they can get those initial buyers out of the way and you have to actually see can they chip into some of Sony‘s market share. They have potential to do so the question is how much of that market share can they get. Keep in mind I say this is someone who jumped ship I had a PS4 loved it not going back to Sony I see too many other issues that I don’t like there I love my Xbox series X. For the record I started out with an Xbox one S then I bought an Xbox series S couldn’t find an X. Then one day I got lucky the stars aligned and Xbox series X was on sale I scooped it up right away. As soon as I told my coworker man I got this Xbox series X what am I gonna do this Xbox series S the first thing they said was do you want to sell it I’ll buy it right now when we leave work let’s go to your house and get it. I think that don’t speak volumes.

Xbox had a decent 2021 but they literally discontinued the Xbox One last year and Sony had to put PS4"s back into production. Xbox had Forza, Halo, and multiplatform Psychonauts 2. PS had Ratchet, Returnal, Guilty Gear Strive which is a hugely popular fighting game, and Deathloop. Xbox definitely didn't blow Playstation out of the water, competition makes everything more interesting though best of luck to both!!!

[@PJC-vi6jv]

@@daksans6764 what are the “inarguable” points that made their 2021 better?

[@PJC-vi6jv]

@@daksans6764 I don’t think you can define those points as inarguable, especially if someone else thinks other exclusives are better. Because then that person would have an argument against yours. We would then have to change your statement to “xbox had arguably the better 2021 compared to its competitors”.

[@PJC-vi6jv]

@@daksans6764 right the majority does think that. It’s not everyone though so, “arguably the better 2021”

[@PJC-vi6jv]

@@daksans6764 it literally does not

[@TheNightWolf-WildCraft]

@@daksans6764 I prefer all the PS games I listed over the Xbox ones you mentioned, to each there own. I thought Halo really dropped the ball in terms of the story telling but the gameplay was fun.

People didn't choose PS4 over the XBone because of the slight edge in graphics. They chose it because it cost $100 less than the XBone

[@bri4498]

Does the gamescoop crew know psychonauts 2 is on Playstation? Sounds like they think it's exclusive to xbox

[@kiwisoup]

Well it's Microsoft now, so every version purchased for PlayStation just lines their pockets lol. Also it was a day one release on Game Pass.

[@livibam]

All online games are a mess on quick resume. Although I think Forza has fixed this recently?

[@mk-qm3qk]

Please let me know of these websites where the series X is available for a whole afternoon... As try as I may I still can't find one . Also anyone wanna trade a ps5 for a series X dm me
