We Won’t Be Frightened Of Scorpio, Says Sony Executive

4.7

The Xbox One Scorpio will end up being the most powerful console ever when it launches later this year. But Sony, the market leader, with 60 million units of hardware sold, and having their best lineup of games yet since the PS4 launched, are apparently not that worried about the impending launch of Microsoft’s console.

Speaking to Business Insider, Sony’s Jim Ryan said, “We won’t be frightened of what they do.” Elaborating on the statement, Ryan said that in the end, the success of a game system comes down to the games- and not only are most games that are on the Xbox also on the PS4, but the PS4 has the added benefit of a highly appealing lineup of exclusives as well, thanks to games like Horizon: Zero Dawn and Uncharted.

He’s not wrong- in terms of lineup, the PlayStation does laughably outclass Xbox. The question is, is this something that Microsoft will be able to change this E3? I personally have my doubts that they do so, but all eyes will be on them come this Sunday.

Haha yeah they did, until Scorpio was announced they used it as their selling point, now it's all about the games...

Don't get me wrong they do have a great line-up of exclusives, I have a ps4 for that reason however PSN is still sub par compared to XBL not to mention e3 is nearly here and hopefully will have some cool exclusives announced.

I think once crackdown releases too that will get a lot of heat

Wait didn't Sony use the "PS4 is the most powerful console" and everything runs better on it? I'm 100% sure they did. So it's a move the goal posts to suite your agenda kind a thing.

Games do sell a console, but also marketing it as the most powerful console and everything will run better and look better on it also sells a console.

Lack of exclusives? Forza, Halo, GoW, Crackdown, etc. Congrats Sony, you're outbuying contracts for "exclusivity", which is a bunch of garbage anyway. Sony doesn't own activision, they simply pay whatever activison wants to keep trash dlc exclusive for a month.
