It's tribalism. Democrats vs Republicans. Cats vs dogs. Red vs blue. Xbox vs PlayStation. People are dumb and will defend a group they affiliate with even if it's against their own self-interest. Seeing Sony fanboys defend $70 games was great. Can't wait for one of the positions to defend $80 games.

Or are you really just complaining about fanboys? Because that's a whole different thing and doesn't have anything to do with console wars. Foolish fan culture is everywhere and it's only gotten worse. Games aren't special in that regard.

It used to be about hardware though in 4th and 5th gen. The Genesis and Snes had things they were stronger and weaker than when it came to certain things. Genesis had a superior cpu, Snes had a superior sound and graphics. PS1 had fmvs, but long load times. N64 lacked fmvs and even cutscenes, but had no loading times. Sega Saturn was able to mimic the arcade games, both which PS1 and N64 lacked but it provided less polygons for 3D games. Sure it was games too, but it was also hardware. Now? Just nothing. The games are ass today. So many games just suck.

That is if you define gaming audience as Twitter boomers. Console war is irrelevant to gamers who play their COD or Fortnite without giving a fuck about platforms, aka the majority of gamers on earth. All they care about is controller-assisted-aiming versus MKB, which is what matters, and is true for all controllers on any platform whether on PS, XBox, Switch, or PC.

14:44 - One of the "TWO" exclusives? Hi-Fi Rush Redfall Starfield Forza Motorsport Two? See, this is why I feel even the supposedly unbiased, "console wars are dumb," people still have don't pay much attention to Xbox unless it's memes & riding a criticism bandwagon. Other hints in the video, like choosing an Xbox fanboy post as an example (even though there's exponentially more Sony console warriors by default of install size), or tossing in that Phil Spencer Japanese clip for no reason other have to take a little jab... Or covering the PS strategy in only a positive light, while only detailing the failure & apology from Xbox as part of their strategy... Huh, I seem to remember a ton of great games on PC Game Pass this year, yet no mention of that value. I don't feel like this guy notices his own biases 😂

The console war is over for the ponys since they've read the documents of Spencer saying if Game Pass doesn't increase till 2027, Xbox would be out of business.. For Xbox players, the console war is done since Xbox, as proven by buying Activision to be in an entire different universe. Is the console war over? Perhaps, but it does keep going in mind still stuck in it. Although I gotta say, reading what ponys says, Xbox players are definitely smater and cooler. Can't find many xbots as much as the ponys.

Dustin, you stated at the timestamp of 11:14 into your video here, that consoles aren't going to matter anymore, & that the sales have plateaued, yet I & many other people have been collecting & buying older video game consoles like i.e. the PS2 fat, the Game Boy Advance with a back lit screen (2), an Xbox Original Halo console, an n64, an Xbox 360 E, a Game Cube, two Nintendo Ds Lite hand helds, a DSi XL, a Nintendo Wii, & a PS4 Pro. Contrary to popular belief Dustin, people are going back, to play older games on older consoles, because a lot of modern games are about activism (lgb rainbow flags, and pop idols like Cardi B in Call of Duty MW: 3), modern day game companies, do not truly care about their customers, as they once had used to, so you are going to see a falling back into the past, with older games and game consoles being bought.

8:42 That was only a theory for the pairing of the PS5 disc drive of the "modular" version with the console itself, whether it is actually required by law for that pairing process or Sony just wants to log data and make 3rd-party replacement of the drive more difficult, is yet to be found out properly. For example, I don't think the next Nintendo hardware will require an internet connection to play any games that don't need it for gameplay. If it did, that would suck.

Food for thought: I believe that the whole phenomenon of brand wars largely comes from the culture of brand loyalty in the USA. This becomes evident when we examine similar behaviors beyond the gaming industry. Take, for instance, discussions about phones, particularly Android and iOS. I rarely witness individuals in any country passionately debating their OS preference, yet people from the US often engage in heated discussions about one brand or the other. Similarly, I can rarely witness intense arguments about consoles between non-US individuals. I genuinely think that brand loyalty is more of a local cultural phenomenon, at least when we are talking about these extremely aggressive debates.

The console wars do suck. They are pointless and unnecessary, as long as you buy the right thing for you, there's no need to feel like you have to justify that purchase to the world. Or join other insecure individual groups with content creator ring leaders that have to reassure you on a daily basis that what you bought is better. Speaking of which we have kind of a problem with many content creators these days who stand to profit by fueling toxicity and tribalism in the gaming space. It's annoying and it stretches beyond just content creators actually.

Console wars are here to stay. Anyone who disagrees is just upset cause their console of choice is getting trounced in the console wars! I’m lucky I own a switch, PS5 and Series X so means nothing to me but I can guarantee that if Microsoft were winning the console race then videos like this wouldn’t happen. By the way, I do love your content Destin!

You're absolutely right. Consoles will die off but it's gonna take some time. They need to convince all the generations who've grown up with a console to give one up. And many just want to have their own hardware & others love the "Console War" too much. But yes, when you can stream every game at the quality of a high end gaming PC with no input latency or lag, there will be no need for expensive gaming hardware. Let alone when it would only be even weaker than what you were streaming from.

With the Nintendo vs Sega console war it made sense as we were like 10 years old and our parents could only afford one. Now we have 30+ year olds with disposable income, so they can buy both. Both systems are fantastic with 90% of the same library. Companies are using this to produce subpar games, we need to band together and vote for better games and prices with our wallets.

It is worth noting the idea behind console wars was very intentional. The discourse kept the known platforms popular while making the console market all but impenetrable to new entrants. A lot of it also drove console sales. Most people just buy a new console to play 3rd party games with their friends. Exclusives, especially single player, don't often convince people to buy one over the other. This is why Sony was so desperately against cross play and Xbox so for it. It's very similar to the whole iMessage mess with blue vs green text bubbles. Apple is intentionally using malicious psychology to get their users to shame and attack their friends and family into switching to IOS. *The console wars are just another byproduct of the post social media age where everything is polarizing and companies exploit that to turn consumers against exchange so they don't notice how anti consumer the companies in question are.*

As a person that plays on all platforms it is an incredible waste of time and energy bashing a console. Every platform has their own strengths and weaknesses and at the end are solid, if you like their games. It’s a shame more folks can’t enjoy all of them.

lol the twitter warriors are funny I participate to troll them both. Their war is ridiculous but I’ve noticed the most heavy voiced ones are in regions where you can normally only afford one of the consoles like that Hyped twitter account is very loud and they are from Pakistan. I own a PC for more than 30fps Microsoft experiences and because i prefer m+k for shooters. a series x for the Blu-ray drive that supports Dolby vision and atmos and the occasional couch game for light achievement whoring. and the PS5 for first party exclusives since they figured out the 45 fps Vrr mode I’m glad they finally allowed Dolby atmos though because their 3D tempest audio is horrendous sounding. Too bad they’ll never enable vision.

Console wars are stupid, agree! But Destin, I would like to push back a little bit on what you said about both approaches (Sony's single-player narrative games and Microsoft's focus on services and Game Pass) being successful. They have been successful, but I do think that both could not be sustainable in the way they currently are. Sony's exclusives are getting way too expensive to produce, and I think the streaming services bubble that burst in the last few years could also happen to Game Pass. I hope I'm wrong about both cases, but it sure seems like both approaches will suffer in the years to come.

Problem with those kind of videos are always, that they are often only seen through American lenses. And yes, there was a time, where Xbox was dominating in the US in the 360 era. But they never render the whole picture how it was in the world.

As soon as Squadron42(Star Citizen) releases I'm moving on to PC gaming, no more need for console gaming, seeing that I'll have Game Pass on my PC and can certainly wait for PlayStation Movie Sim exclusives to launch within a year on PC. Hell, they don't even make MP games like Killzone and Resistance anymore so why bother with PS6. Nintendo is the outlier for staying on console. It is the TRUE exclusive game on console provider.

I wonder if Xbox and PlayStation stopped trying to be the top end hardware if pc games would diverge. Side not though I think that amd and especially nvidia are starting to see that high end gpu race is netting less and less and are moving to other sectors.

I have been of the opinion for so many years that Sega dropped out of the hardware game and Microsoft picked them guys up!! I had master system, N64, Playstation, psp, Xbox, Xbox 360, Vita, Xbox one, switch and Xbox series x.. And I feel this is an average timeline for a lot of Xbox owners! Would love to know your take?! I'm not a playstation hater.. but I have my Nintendo/Microsoft allegiances!
