Why the FUCK do yuropoors love PlayStation so much?
>>
>>322471024
Because they're not brainwashed by patriotism to love the shitbox
>>
Because this isn't America.
>>

yuropoors, everyone.
>>

Greatness.

Pc gaming is a dead meme
>>
How close is PS4 to Complete Global Saturation? If they haven't achieved it by now, I mean.
>>
Because Nintendo doesn't like Europe, or any region outside of Japan for that matter, and the xbone is just a console made for Americans.
>>
>>322471024
i dunno i like ps2 so i bought ps3.
i liked ps3 so i bought ps4.

What do those stats look like if we only factor western Europeans?

I don't really care about eastern, portugal, or spain.
>>
Xbone is an inferior PS4, Wii U is a piece of shit that only a deluded nostalgiafag would buy
>>322471319
The further east in Yurop you go, the more PC you get
>>
Americans buy XBox because it's American.
Euros have no reason to buy it. It's inferior to the PS4
>>
>>322471024
Because we see microshit products as the substandard crappy quality underpowered overpriced things that they are
>>
Xbone caters to american dudebros who like american sports and american cable tv.
>>
Being from the UK, it started off with the PS1 being extremely popular for FIFA and having more mature games compared to the SNES and N64, I'm talking normie mature games, like Gran Turismo and shit. Since then, the Playstation has always sold well.
Most of the people I know who own a playstation 4 nowadays just play FIFA and Call of Duty.
Plus, Sony marketing it as the most powerful console really worked among the public and the advertising space in London was Sony everywhere
>>
We prefer genres other than rooty-tooty-point-and-shooty.
>>
>>322471319
Europe has more PC players than the US
>>
>>322471024
Because:
- Yuros have an unhealthy hate for Microsoft
- Yuros seem to forget all the bad shit Sony has done
- Nintendo is for babbies.

Murka went Xbox simply becuase Murkan.
Australia went Xbox because Sony delayed PS3 by 18months and everyone had 360's by the time PS3 released.
Nips only buy Nip consoles
>>
>>322471024
Because Sony had the brillant idea to made decent exclusive game sooner than Microsoft ?

because they like FIFA and hate microsoft?

Did you actually forget Sony trying to limit Blu-Rays to a single console?

Looking at it purely objectively, PS4 is superior in every was to Xbone.
I don't know why people pretend to like Xbox, they have absolutely nothing, namely because they're an American company.

ps2 was the pro evolution soccer machine
ps3/ps4 are the fifa machines

So given that anyone can just install Steam or Gog Galaxy and become recorded in their respective databases as a gamer, wouldn't that statistically swarm consoles out on percentage showcases such as this one?
>>
>>322471024
we can't afford to buy games, so with ps4 there's no temptation to waste money on them.
>>
>>322471361
Kekkk
>>
>>322471024
because the only reason, literally the only reason why the 360 ever picked up traction, is because microsoft is an american company.

The 360 and the Xbone from the moment they were released, were underpowered. Therefor there was absolutely no logical reason to buy those system over the better performing hardware.

Basically, the reason why microsoft ever got any traction with the xbox brand is because americans are fucking stupid.
>>
>>322472551
>always online
This was the only thing new

>kinect always on
Kinect doesn't even have to be plugged in, it didn't need to be then either.

>no sharing games/used games
This is the exact shit I was just talking about, Sony was make the PS3 burn a serial number onto every game disc, so it would only ever play in the one console...

Honestly though, all consoles are shit.
Steam is shit, but it's less shit than the consoles
Origin is turboshit
uplay is worst than psn shit
GOG is tolerable shit
Piracy is free shit.

Why do all the multiplats both run better and look better on 360 then mang?
How come a Radeon X1800 shits all over a GeForce 7800GS
How come 3 PPC970FX cores shits all over 1?
How come the SPEs in cell all had differing memory latencies?
How come one SPE was disabled but it wasn't registered which one, nor was it the same one aomngst all consoles, so you couldn't EVER account for crazy spe memory access latency.

PS3 was fucking shit.
Carmack was right to hate it.
Gaben was right to hate it.

They don't. That's you, as a mouth breathing american respouting propeganda.

American companies focused on the 360 as their main platform because americans were so dumb they bought the inferior product which brought the general quality of games down for the majority of the generation, it wasn't until the ps3 outsold the 360 about 3/4 through the life cycle that things started looking and performing a lot better.
>>
>>322471024
Because they initially marketed it to just Americans and that image never went away. I'm surprised it's selling so well in general though.

Did you see the Xbone European launch???

>launched like nine months late in about 8 European countries creating a huge gap where if you wanted a next gen console there was just no choice but to get a PS4.
>spend ages talking about certain online features then reveal that lots of them wont even work outside of the USA and UK

Microsoft fucked it up hard
>>
Europoor here, specifically Hungarian bro.

You want to know why this happened ? Because Microsoft ignored most of Middle , and Eastern Europe during the launch of the Xbox 360. We got an overpriced console machine ( same problem with the PS3 at that itme), and an online feature that was not supported for 3-4 years after its launch in Hungary, and a few other countries.

Fastforward to Xbox One release, and Microsoft sort of hinted that not every country is going to get the Xbox Live feature on the Xbox One, and some countries may be left behind , pending for future implementation.

Sony goes and announces to us that no worries, PSN will be supported for all previous countries.

So yeah MS fucked up again in terms of marketing for Eastern Europe.
>>
>>322471024
PC gaming isn't as prevalent, also FIFA.

I wish I was kidding

>>322471024
Nintendo was never popular, Microsoft wasn't existent on consoles market, Sega flopped so hard with Saturn. It's not hard to figure why Playstation is the most popular.
>>322471449
What's a Global Saturation?
>>
microsoft doesn't give a shit about the xbox they released it in like 100 fewer countries than the PS4. their primary concern is and always will be Windows. the xbox was just an experiment for them back in the day to see if they could get PC quality graphics and audio on a console.

Please don't tell me you are implying that the PS3 was that "better performing hardware"

Please.

Or maybe the PS3 was terribly designed, with sony stating on record that "the first five million are going to buy it, whatever it is, even it didn't have games", then had no fucking games with a hardware that was a fucking nightmare to develop for AND topped it 600 USD.

And don't even make me mention the power of the cell, shittalking motion control (then doing) shittalking touchpads (then doing them too) and shittalking paid online (look at how that went)

Just because it isn't as godly as the PS4 sales doesn't mean they are bad.

Oh shit I forgot, yeah the X360 was popular, but only because people undersold them via various blackmarket cracks.

Was hilarious, and MS probably lost a few bucks on dem games.

It's bombed in EU territories and bombed even more in Japan

Xbone sales in murrika constitute to more than 65% of total X1 sales LTD and yet the PS4 still sold more than X1 in North America aka the only territory where the X1 barely had a chance.

The xbone will be lucky to reach 40m by the end of this gen.

You are kidding.
If anything, because of piracy, the pc gaming is much more popular here.
Yeah, you won't see that many sold games in Europe and EU players in pay2play games, but every single free2play game is flooded by players from Eastern and Central Europe.

And since I'm from central Europe I can confirm that everyone around me was/is playing on pc.

idk whats so difficult to understand, apple had enugh marketing to differentiate itself and give the idea of a premium product for a premium price, enough to become a trend, with kids asking parents to buy the latest 900€ iphone because all their classmates have it.

for the rest of the products, us doesnt produce items of enough quality to compete with germany (cars, industrial tools), france/italy (food, clothing, handcrafted luxury products), nor cheap enough to compete with china.
