Gabe Newell Says Xbox Series X is Better Than PS5
Co-founder of Valve Gabe Newell is stuck in New Zealand (not a bad place to be stuck tbh) due to a Corona quarantine. And that gave him some time for interviews. While doing so he gave made his opinion on the upcoming next-gen console launch known. Appearing on the television program The Project, Newell was asked by one of the hosts which he thinks is better between the Xbox Series X and PS5.
“Uh, the Xbox,” Newell responded plainly. When pressed on why he thought it was a better platform, Newell simply said, “Because it is.” After some laughs were had by the audience, Newell expanded a bit more with, “I don’t have a stake in that race. Obviously, we do most of our development on personal computers. But of the two, I would definitely go with an Xbox.”
Obviously he'll say whatever suits his wallet the best.

Much like we said Sweeney's talk about PS5 was all PR and marketing.... People laughed at us.... Then a few weeks later headlines read "Sony invests $250 million dollars into EPIC games".... LOL
I expect we shall see some form of integration of Xbox Game Pass through steam and we shall probably see a UWP version of the Steam App on the Windows Store (probably also Steam on Xbox Series X....).
In addition to that, Sony has PS VR, Maybe we see Valve Index coming to the Xbox Series X also.....

If i look at the games on Xbox one and Playstation 4 , Playstation is most definitely the winner for me.
I cant see Microsoft turning this around.
How much did Playstation 4 outsell Xbox one again ?
I think Microsoft is more focussed on gamepass then on their new Xbox TBH. It is a great deal to have a gamepass. It is a shame there will be different models though, so games on Xbox series X won't be playable on Xbox One or PC.
