Xbox can win this console war

I hold no allegiance to PlayStation or Xbox. I believe the PS4 was superior to the Xbox one and the 360 was superior to the ps3. I own both the Series X and the PS5. Series x wins every category for me except games. The PS5 is huge and poorly designed. When it is loading games it sounds like a jet engine is in my room. The Series x is much more quiet and sleek. IMO ps5 messes up the controller as well. It feels way more bulky than the Ps4 controller. The PS5 is winning now with the exclusives. Xbox didn’t even try but if they did I would sell the PS5 tomorrow. It’s truly impressive Xbox fit that much power in such a small
Package.
Package.

seems a little early to make judgements one way or the other, as no third party games out right now can really take advantage of the tech.
definitely correct
this is interesting. the people that did extensive sound testing basically said they were identical and both very quiet
they bulked it up to get closer to the ergos of hte xbox controller. it seems to be the most "next-gen" feature of either console in most first impression writeups.
well Xbox has a lot in the pipeline with the Zenimax acquisition, it's just gonna take a few years to bear fruit. the consoles will be very even on this front in a few years, both games have plenty of alluring exclusives coming
Anxious to do some comparisons for myself

The only time the PS5 really makes noise is when the bluray drive is spinning.

You’re right these are just early observations.

Whoever can produce units at this point will be winning

Slow down. Let's let them figure out how to honor a pre order first

Oh I like this! The original fat Xbox controller is my favorite all time controller, so if it gets anywhere to that level of comfort, I’m sold.

I own both as well.
I like the Series X for Game Pass and the extensive BC library, but I also like the PS exclusives and have always felt the player base for From Software games is bigger on PS (which are the games I play most often).

Its not really a console war anymore. The XBox is just one part of MS effort to offer gaming as a service and imo they are doing a fantastic job of providing value for my money. As more Sony titles also go to PC they will need to come up with a similar competing service to Game Pass or they will be like those Japanese soldiers stuck out on islands thinking the WW2 was still going well after it was over.

I dont want anyone to win.
I want them to keep putting pressure on each other for better products at a faster pace.
Consumers win.
Like the Monday night wars.

What percentage of these PS5 exclusives are of the Japanese RPG variety?
I've been following @Wario64 on Twitter and it has been fun weeding through all of the updates and I am seeing a ton of sales on Playstation exclusives but the overwhelming majority of them are what some would refer to as "weeb" games. The latest tweet from @Wario64 was about a sale on Granblue Fantasy which fits that billing. I know Playstation has some really good exclusive titles like God of War, The Last of Us, Uncharted and Spiderman but are the majority of these titles Japanese titles?

Why not?
When it comes to consoles, I much prefer the XBox Controller over the Playstation Controllers.
Sony will have 5-10 Exclusives that are MUST plays for me.
Everything else I play on the XBox because of the controller and because GamePass is such a ridiculous value.
