Turns out Xbox One sales were less than half of the PS4’s, says Microsoft itself
In 2016 Microsoft stopped reporting sales figures of the Xbox One, but recent documents from the company have confirmed how little the console sold compared to the PS4.
If you remember the early days of the Xbox One, they were a bit of a disaster due to some poor early decisions (that were admittedly quite quickly backtracked), and three years after its release in 2016 Microsoft stopped reporting sales figures. But now as reported by The Verge, in some documents filed to Brazil’s national competition regulator, Microsoft has admitted Xbox One sales figures were less than half of the PS4.
“Sony has surpassed Microsoft in terms of console sales and installed base, having sold more than twice as many Xbox in the last generation,” said Microsoft, as translated from Portuguese by The Verge.
Spider-Man PC files reveal that co-op and PvP were once being developed
One curious player has dived into the PC files for Spider-Man Remastered, and sure enough, they found something interesting.
The interesting bit being that Spider-Man very well could’ve featured co-op and PvP elements in an alternate universe. Twitter user, DniweTamp, shared screenshots of what they’d found in the game files, and they reveal that co-op and PvP were once in development for the superhero title.
The screenshots have also since been checked and verified by VGC. The information comes directly from the games executable files and shows that multiplayer mode would’ve included callouts to ‘the Superior Spider Man’ alongside a winner message. It also appears the two characters would’ve stepped into the shoes of either Miles Morales or Peter Parker for the rumble.

Why Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered PC devs want players to “feel like we’re honouring the platform”
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered is the latest ex-PlayStation exclusive to rock up on PC, following a collaborative effort between original developers Insomniac Games and porting specialists Nixxes. It’s also a skyscape-swinging, baddie-decking good time, so says Alice Bee’s review, and one that comes with plenty of special features just for the Windows version. I’ll be posting a more performance-and-hardware-focused guide to it later this week, but in the meantime I called up Jurjen Katsman, founder and senior director of development at Nixxes, and Mike Fitzgerald, core technology director at Insomniac, for a chat about how Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered makes the jump to PC.
Over 20 years later, we’re getting a new Fatal Fury game
It was a big weekend over at EVO 2022: as well getting new character announcements for Street Fighter 6, and what appears to be a Tekken 8 teaser, SNK announced that we’ll be getting a new entry in the fan-favourite, long-dead Fatal Fury/Garou series, too!
This new game – of which we currently know precious little about – will be the first entry in the series since Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Which launched way back in 1999. Some 23 years ago. Talk about a comeback, right?
As was the case with SNK’s other recent fighting game, King of Fighters 15, no release window or platforms have been named. You can probably expect to wait quite a while for that info; we didn’t get more specific information until quite late into the KoF 15 marketing cycle.
