Xbox's biggest crisis right now isn't games. It's hardware. (Opinion - Jez Corden) (www.windowscentral.com)

"Today, PlayStation revealed that its PS5 has sold 40 million units. Microsoft doesn't share hardware numbers typically, but court documents, math, and slides from an ID@Xbox in Brazil seem to suggest the Xbox Series X|S line-up is around 20-23 million units sold globally. That essentially puts the PS5 at a 2:1 advantage against Xbox, but perhaps the split is even worse than that beneath the surface. "

And console manufacturers will scratch their heads as to why they've been slowly losing market share to PC.

I don't think anyone is scratching their heads over this lol Microsoft is just as happy to have everyone on PC.

Fair. Sony and Nintendo will scratch their heads though. They for sure don't stand to gain by sending their customers to PC.
