I find it sad that despite the console being very easy to find, people spent more time playing on a Ps3 than the latest xbox systems.
I'm actually fuckin' impressed that Sony has got four of the five consoles its ever made in that list. I mean fucking Christ, there's staying power and there's that.
I'm actually shocked the PS3 gets more play than the Series X/S. Considering a majority of PS3 controllers die after about 10 years. These must be players using third party controllers or something.

Ps3 has a ton of timeless games that don't rely on graphics to be engaging and can be played in single player just fine. Xbox gets cannibalized by pc. Simple as that.

The big question is where would those systems be on this list without all their exclusives.

Xbox has no games of note that other systems don't have, and you can't mod as much on Xbox as you can on PC. If you are clever you could even bypass the difficulty on harder games with PC using god mode mods. For when you don't want to smash your controller into the ground over losing progress in Elden Ring.

All well true. Still doesn't change the fact that those DualShock3's only have a shelf life of a decade and that's it. Or that certain games that were multiplatform usually (not always) ran worse than their 360 or PC counterparts. I am happy for the PS3 player though. I never owned one, but luckily, most of the PS3 games I wanted to play either got ported to PS4 or other 8th generation consoles.

I mean like xbox s/x. Towards the bottom.
I find it hilarious XONE gets more play than S/X, but I am not surprised in the least on the outcome.

@Specter Von Baren, new trailer for Gravity Circuit. We're getting a new renaissance of ninja style action platformers. We got this, Moonrider, Slave Zero X, and whenever Bushiden comes out. Moonrider actually comes out next week.

Mm, I love me some chunky sound effects.

Almost every game you can play on XBOX at this point you can almost play on PC, at least as far as newer games are concerned.

Though I'd quite intrigued to see a Re-release of the older Gears of War games for the PC.

Wait, did I miss something? DId they already do this?

Okay, apparently Gears got ported but not 2 or 3.

Gears 1 was how Epic learned their trick of antagonising PC gamers by calling them a bunch of filthy pirates and when sales don't meet expectations claim it was because PC gamers are filthy pirates.

Putting it on GfWL was just shit icing on a hilariously shit cake.

It also felt like a half-arsed port.
