“World’s Most Powerful Console”- Xbox Executive’s Jibe at PlayStation 5
Follow Us
The gaming industry waited with bated breath today to finally see the PlayStation 5. It has been a long time coming and Sony has given us very little to hold on to until now. Today, however, they revealed 24 games coming on PS5 (not including a remastered GTA V). And, we finally got a glimpse of the next-gen console. Only a fraction of those games were PlayStation exclusives though, a fact one of the executives at Xbox was more than happy to point out.
Xbox executive’s jibe at PlayStation 5
The PlayStation 5 reveal event was a middling affair for the millions who tuned in to watch. It had its share of surprises and games we were expecting to see. It had some absolute gems but also games that left us indifferent. We did get a glimpse of a few PlayStation exclusives, but many were also cross-platform titles. Xbox executive, Aaron Greenberg, was more than happy to piggyback off the PS5 event to do what he does best- a bit of marketing.
