Lenny_Face xbox>ps4 imo. idk how ps4 has more sales. i feel as soon as xbox gets a faster response time on the menus it will sell more.


when the xbox one just came out , it had the always-online feature which many people didn't like , that's why it has way more sales


they actually removed that before they released the xbox one.
It threw a lot of people off though
