Im not much of a gamer (ironically I make games for a living) but I made a bet with my kids that if the Detroit Lions make the playoffs this year I’ll buy them a system, and its looking like almost a lock to happen, so I want to get in on some Holiday deals.
This is their first non-Nintendo system so I’m a little lost on which way to go at this point in the generation cycle. For reference they’re 7 and 9 year old boys and are gonna be new to gaming that isnt based around crafting or Italian brothers. (i made them use my old NES, then SNES first, then got them a Switch a couple years back)
PlayStation 5 is the more popular console by a landslide. It’s outselling the Xbox around 2:1.
Obviously ask them what they would prefer, and what all their friends play on, but the PlayStation 5 is typically regarded as the better console by most gamers currently
