Xbox 360 was beating the PlayStation 3 in sales until late in the generation and by the PS4 and Xbox One the PS3 had slightly outsold the Xbox 360.
It's easy to explain how PS2 beat original Xbox since PS2 had DVD support out of the box and PlayStation was already established due to the previous generation. Xbox 360 did well for them to be beating PS3 but as PS3 games started outputting more the console jumped in sales. The Xbox One launch was lackluster and PlayStation 4 was simply cheaper and more powerful so it started with a lead and is around 2:1 in terms of outselling Xbox One.
So I think PlayStation just had a larger marketshare overall and always had because Xbox came into the market at the height of PlayStation domination.

That could be the lack of Dan Houser and Lazlow.

Surprised I had to scroll all this way down to find Grand Theft Auto.
It's my favorite franchise but also by far one of the most popular of all time so I thought more people would think it's overrated.

Reply to Could CHAT GPT be built into NPCs in video games? Imagine no more dialogue choices & just speaking to NPCs. by Platybear_OG
I remember Fallout had the ability to ask characters about things which you types in to get answers for things that weren't in the dialogue options.
That's a potential use for ChatGPT but I'm not sure how it works.

Reply to Sims 4 expansion packs. Please explain :o by [deleted]
The Sims games always had expansions and stuff packs which could cost over hundreds of dollars. I remember when The Sims 3 was still getting new expansions they'd cost $40 to $50, while The Sims 3 was still $50 in stores.

I waited 5 years to switch to Windows 10 when I finished my new PC coming from Windows 7 in 2020. I'm likely going to ride out Windows 10 until support is dropped for it.

People like fast paced military shooters. Never was able to get into arena shooters myself aside from the bot support.

Funny because GTA SA didn't have online without modding.

Wonder when they'll go back to World War 2 or even sci-fi.

Makes you wonder why the East Coast still cares about being in contact with the West Coast because they're actually more powerful than the West Coast.

I remember little about the story of BL1 but the DLC improved on the game heavily. General Knoxx was my favorite character to come out of BL1 because of the DLC.

RPGs straying from the tabletop roots is a good thing so they can evolve as a genre.

At least for the PC version they should have put the frame limiter in like they did for the older games to compensate.

It's not Grand Theft Auto until you fall out of the map or glitch outside the interior at least once.

Was splitscreen support ever a huge thing on PC? Thought it was something consoles focused on more.

Nintendo prefer their ecosystem and stick to it.

Simplest answer is player engagement and retention.

I preferred when games didn't need any launcher or had their own self-contained game launcher from the disc.

Many people prefer controller because it's more convenient to them.
