    The results of a new video game study, one overseen by professional psychologists, have been released and claim that Xbox gamers are more prone to be ‘toxic’ than PlayStation, PC and Nintendo gamers. The Buss Perry Aggression Questionnaire consisted of 29 questions sent out to 964 gamers across the United Kingdom with four key categories […]

    A UK study finds that Xbox has the most toxic userbase. Four categories were covered with Xbox leading all of them, whilst COD, FIFA and Battlefield topped the software offenders list.
    Animal Crossing came fourth.

        COD and FIFA G have always been toxic ... Battlefield though? I've had nothing but good times on battlefield.

            It'll be more to do with the ridiculously low amount of PS users that bother with voice comms!!

              I think this is because, for some, its like picking a team. And when you pick a team you become personally invested in that team (like football). If your team is coming up short time and time again you feel like you have to defend your position for picking that team.
              As for the games, i think there is a deeper sociological thing going on. COD is seen as a game that 'blokes' are allowed to play without saying they play videogames (same with FIFA), so there is probably some psychological 'Toxic Masculinity' bull**** involved.
              That's my take anyway.


              Edit: Animal crossing?? No idea.

                  So looks like we have a leak regarding the Xbox Series S and price.


                  $299 means the Series X will be between $399-$499 as expected.
                  Doesn’t look like the S has a disc drive from that picture.

                  Seems price may not be real or could have been shipped...

                    Xbox Series X $499, both to release November 10 according to https://www.windowscentral.com/xbox-...nally-revealed

                      Have to say I really hate the design of the series s, looks absolutely awful and looks more like a speaker or the xbox accessibility controller minus a pad. Really disappointing considering Microsoft hit it out of the park with One S and One X. In terms of console design I think the PS5 wins hands down. Price point is interesting though, from the looks of it the series s will be a digital only console.

                        If that price is right then its really competitive. Competition is good. Design is horrible.

                          This is exactly what happens when you prat about for so long against your rival. Good that the info and pricing is out but MS lost all control of the PR to make this a megaton news drop. The Series X is an ugly bugger but £300 is a solid price, they need to get media out on it hard and fast because with that design etc it just looks and comes across like a manky One S revision. The bigger item is the Series X pricing which presumably puts the system in the £449.99/£499.99 bracket. I don't think any of this changes anything for the systems fortunes but it does mean that like 2013 Sony now has the confirmation it needs to imminently drop the launch info for PS5 based on these details and likely wipe MS's system off the starting line.

                            I mean, it would be nuts if the PS5 DE was £299 as well.

                            Comment


                              I hope the PS5 DE is that cheap as then I'll get both.

                              Nice to finally have the important information. Agree that black grille on the S is just... Weird? Don't like it at all. I'll be getting an XSX then, maybe a digital PS5.

                                The spec gulf is so wide that it makes me now feel like Sony will wade in with £349.99 for the digital PS5 and £429.99 for the disc version sealing the deal.
