i agree with this comment
xbox had a better briefing...showed more games and played more games...PS4 ppl always talk about games games games... PS4 is about games... But how many games were shown at that sony briefing? ..... 16. How many games were shown at the xbox briefing ..... 35. A lot of these writers/comments are simply ignoring the facts. Sony didn't even bring out a physical demo of the VR platform, not even a highlight reel for it...... They really did the minimum this year. That's why xbox was the most talked about. They not only talked about platform changes, but system updates, hardware updates, and of course, lots of games. As others have pointed out, it's not about consoles sold anymore. it's about the platform. users. Sony may sell more consoles, but Microsoft has xbox and windows. A combined platform way larger than sony and has way more users. This is how they attract developers and partners. But lets take a look at what was actually shown at each conference...
