Why do Yuropoors love PlayStation so much?
>>
Western master race console

Only cucks buy a PS4 for weebshit
>>
Brand loyalty from the PSX, plus it's better than the filthy American console.
>>
at least i'm being fucked by sony!

Microsoft had a LOT of problems with the European government and antitrust laws. Nintendo is considered for children.

Walk into a GameStop in America, and you are likely to see a wall of Xbox One games. Why, because Microsoft pays the company to display their games more than competitors. In Europe, that's illegal.
>>
Europeans aren't fond of the yankbox, too american.
>>
Only americans are stupid enough to buy Xbox consoles.
>>
>>338262843
Playstation's have been Europe's console for ages

They have advertising in all the champions league games and things like that.

Even before Playstation, Europe was primarily Sega instead of nintendo, Sony just moved into that spot after Sega fucked up.

semen slurping is a continental pastime

is this just a meme because there's shittons of britfags on xbox live.
>>
>>338263305
Britain is more balanced, continental Europe is massively pro-playstation
>>
>>338262843
It allows them to save money on games.

Because there are none they can buy.

This mostly. Microsoft still suffer from the late 90's-early 00's "mucrosoft is worse than Satan" campains and scandals. Nintendo is still doing honest in some countries (France and germany), but overall, coutries that were too poor for the snes era only know about Sony and the playstation brand name.

This isn't true. Only the UK really went crazy for Sonic.

Nedgame is de beste Nederlandse gameswinkel, ook al zijn ze bijna altijd duurder dan online alternatieven. Game Mania is pure kanker.
>>
>>338262843
because theyre too poor to afford a pc
>>
>>338263543

I had an XBox 360, switched to PS4 this gen, the XBONE just didn't look good at all, that E3 conference they did was amazing in the lack of vidya.
>>
Ps4 is the only good console
>>
>>338263543
The master system sold as much as the NES in Europe and the Mega Drive sold more than the SNES.
>>
>>338263543
>If a country doesn't cocksuck Ninty or Microsoft it was too poor for the SNES era
>This is what yankee doodles solemnly believe

What happened was, consoles weren't big at all here for years because the C64/Spectrum/BBC Micro were so strong and people could code their own games from magazines/pirate tapes easy as shit. The NES did ok but it suffered from being seen as a simple toy compared with what people were used to. When the Mega Drive released, people were impressed. The SNES was considered the poor choice here, if you didn't have a Mega Drive you were a fucking loser, nobody gave a flying fuck about Mario.

After the Saturn spectacularly failed, most of the market went straight to the PS1, although a lot of people double dipped because the N64 was so different.

Dimension Plus was de bom, totdat ze dicht gingen.

Ben het met je eens, though. Game Mania is pure Kanker.
>>
Sony is politically correct and this appeals to their muslim sensibilities
>>
>watch a championships league game
>PS4 ads everywhere

Is MS did the same the Xbox would be just as popular.

What is advertised sells. Playstation is a normalfag trademark is Europe.
>>
>>338263197
America here. We dont have walls of xbox shit. Its mostly split with MS and Sony. Nintendo has a little sliver in the corner....sadly.
>>
>>338262843
Why do Americunts love Xbox so much?
>>
>>338264436
Live is way better than PSN.
>>
>>338264436
Because AMERICA FUCK YEAH yuroboi

>>338263805

Yourgamezone is alot better considering most games sell below value there.

>>
>>338264043
You also have to keep in mind Europe never really went through the video game crash and PC only grew stronger during that period. That's why Nintendo never got a real foothold early on and Microsoft was too late to pick on what Sony didn't capitalize on yet at the time.
>>
>>338264436
because they like to suck dick, why would anyone get a xbone when it's obviously the worst console of this generation

even its shitty exclusives are on PC

The PS4 got it covered now.
>>
>>338264918
Not really. Most of PS4 owners in Europe make a silent majority playing almost exclusively FIFA.
>>
Lol man, far more people have PC here than a console, at least in the post-communist countries. Its because the consoles were super expensive in the 90s up to around 2004. Plus, its cheaper to buy a pc and then pirate everything.

No, PS4 is cheapest in USA and thus most console players are american. Plus its easy to set up - americans dont really like to think.

The PS4 was just dumped there without any game for japanese audiences for a year, it was expected.
>>
>>338262843

PS brand is older, i felt indifferent about xbox until the E3 XB1 fiasco, pretty sure that killed all their momentum
>>
>>338265129
Unlike westerners, the Japanese only buy a console when it has games.

When it comes to this they're smarter than us.
>>
>>338264538
Does YorGameZone even have physical stores, or are they online only?

I was talking about physical games stores. Of course online only ones are going to be cheaper most of the time. For buying online I either use Shop4NL or generic key sellers.

Hi there meme from a decade ago.
>>
>>338262843
Playstation is also popular in Asia too.

Microsft supported regions are so retardly few that everyone prefer Playstation. Xbox360 only got popular here because of piracy.

Playstation sucks. It's for gay niggers.

What are you even talking about, PC gaming has a larger maket share in europe than in the rest of the civilised world (so basically NA, japan, worst korea and australia)

If those retards can be convinced to let "refugees" culturally enrich them, it really shows how susceptible they are to social engineering. ARE YOU A REAL GAMER? #4thegaymers

Ain't that only apply to NATO counties? Since ex-Warsaw Pact/commie barely had an access to consoles back then.
