Xbox has completely owned 2021 when it comes to games, consoles, power and of course services. With Xbox Game Pass it’s been easy to see that Microsoft targeted 2021 as Xbox’s biggest year.
The first year of the Xbox Series X has truly been one of the best for a console launch. With Sony’s PlayStation 5 having a lack luster of games coming out. It was Xbox’s exclusive games that set the standard for the console.
We know the PS5 and the Xbox Series X | S are going to compete every single year this generation. But we all know that 2021 was owned by Xbox.

What was the main reason Xbox owned 2021? Is it the games? The console? Or is it Game Pass?
@SnipeYouOut4Fun Fresh game? Isn’t that supposed to be the opposite? Why would anyone both for a game that they never experienced the gameplay, my poor little pony?🤣
Now the real reason why Halo won is because of its early multiplayer release. Not because it’s «fresh», bots, or any other lies that you 🐴 preached about.
It is also funny that PlayStation players (not insecured fanboys) voted for Halo because Ratchet and Clank might get in the final round. Unfortunately, that didn’t happened
You also forget that Halo has multiplayer, where people can post clips of their gameplay. Unlike, single player where people post clips here and there but soon will disappear. Keep carrying that L, dumbass🤣
Edit: Also isn’t it funny how you guys used to say «Quality over Quantity», yet look who’s saying Xbox have 2 games despite catching so many attention for this later part of the year? Last time I heard about FH5, is that over 7 million players played the game because of Gamepass😂
@Ryan so what you’re saying is backwards compat doesn’t matter right now? 🤣🤣🤣 a remake of your favourite game like Xbox has be doing for over a decade doesn’t matter🤣🤣🤣 forza can’t even run the one key feature (raytracing) for this generation🤣🤣🤣 tell everybody how cars just disappear and stuff.. 🤣🤣🤣
@Ryan deathloop was not an Xbox game at the time of release 🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣
@Ryanall of those games brand new releases the last 2years 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ if you don’t know what you’re talkin about don’t say anything at all 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ryan 😉 except for Demon Souls I don’t really care that thing looks and plays amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤦♂️
@K. Tucker absolutely not… to be at the top I do believe you should at least outsell your opponent LMFBO!! Not to mention dropping exclusive every once in awhile they’ve been regurgitating the same games for well over a decade.. at the top my ass you may be sniffing it that’s because there’s only to console makers really LMFBO🤣🤣🤣🤣
My xbox says otherwise 😂
@Ryan the only game you play is youtube 😂 keep drawing them pictures kid 😂 you got plenty of time until you save enough for a series x 😂 you can take pictures of your friends xbox 😂
@MVCPremiumGamer i literally own an xbox because i can 😂 i get plenty of entertainment at work from people like you and crying ryan 👍
@Ryan you pointing out that i have both new consoles is amusing considering you have none 😂
@Xstation Picture of your mom beside mine. Your not old enough for an Xbox, better stick to the kiddie station. I’ll tell your mom to work on your grammar lessons. 👍
@Ryan that isnt your xbox though. The picture is 😂 how old are you? 5 😂
With all the Xbox success it’s cool how pro Microsoft players for the most part are not encouraging a Sony smear campaign
Xbox definitely owned 2021, next year will be bigger🙂🙂🙂
Yes it’s because of gamepass.
I’m looking forward to Weird West, Sniper Elite 5,, Replaced, Darktide, Stalker 2 Redfall, Starfield and more I’m sure.
Saving so much money.
Keep it up Microsoft 😊😊
Yet gamepass has been out for years. It didnt help it win last gen did it 😂
I sold my PS5 after completing Demon’s Souls and just have bought the Xbox X and I am happy. 120 pounds for the Game Pass for a whole year of joy. Unbeatable at the moment.
@DriftBandit Good gaming PC is something on another level but unfortunately its not worth paying double price for a graphics card at the moment.
Lmaooo stop the cap you never owned a ps5
@Joel John Mathews Nobody over ten years old cares about the underpowered, featureless, obsolete tech, gameless PeasantStation. 👍
@Joel John Mathews I actually did hell I have another one I bought for my girl lmfao
You must be poor if you need to sell a console to buy another. I own both and I feel like a king and you call yourself a gamer?
lmao he said its not about console wars but xbox still losing to sony 2 to1 while saying xbox owned 2021 when they dropped 2 games within 2 weeks in holiday…. stop it and halo is unfinished
If a game has any form of glitch or bug it’s not a «complete game»
sales narrative already proven false, Sony is losing by 30 million subs though without a single game or feature all gen to even compete. 🤦
Stop being a pony and just buy a PC and gamepass
@haunted dreams Literally all software has defects. By your logic no complete game has ever been released. You’ve obviously never worked in software.
@Dupre of Trinsic well then I guess no game has ever been released properly completed 🤷.
Never been so happy to be an xbox fan!
I may prefer PlayStation over Xbox but let’s be real here, Sony CANNOT compete with the value that Game Pass brings and they won’t ever be able to since they are simply not wealthy enough for that.
Even if they could afford to match Game Pass with the day and date games and stuff they still don’t have enough first party studios to keep people subscribed and they will and can only buy small unknown AA studios which doesn’t excite many people at all. Xbox would also just bid higher than them for any third party deals so that wouldn’t work either.
Sony will have a tough time this gen since in this new era of services it’s who has the most money that wins so Xbox will 100% push Sony down to 3rd place, Nintendo will be fine so they will trest comfortably at 2nd place.
The spartacus thing is proof that Sony clearly can’t compete with Xbox in that area otherwise they would have actually made a good service since they have had many years to prepare one but they didn’t.
@Adrian Hosein I looked up the article and you’re right it’s not for all divisions, it seems to be for their entertainment divisions so mainly movies, Anime and gaming. Let’s say they split that in 3 it would give each of those divisions $6 Billion, you could actually do a lot with that so it makes me wonder what they are going to do with it, I hope they make smart investments at least.
I play both but main Xbox.
I don’t fully agree that Sony is going to have a hard time. I think that they will be just fine this generation, honestly. They are in enough of a lead to ride this generation out. Least that’s how I see it.
*Next* generation, however… 😒
That ain’t looking too good for them. Not unless something changes between now and then. 🤷🏾♂️
Sony makes their own franchises and those are the best reviewed games out there.
@Diego Antunes Right I love how sony created Wolverine, Spiderman and Street fighter Rofl. 😂
Well thats a dumb statement. If gamepass is making money it means it is paying for itself 😂
Its like saying someone can not afford to work 🤦♂️
Good to see Xbox on the front competing again amazing year alot respect
I’m not into stupid console wars, but I am into Gamepass. Loving the service, though i feel Xbox needs more studios to make it a must-have subscription. Ideally, I would want Microsoft to snatch up Square Enix’s western division, along with IO Interactive, Asobo, and Avalanche.
Asobo are tightly linked to MSFT. I’d be amazed if the next Plague Tale doesn’t land on GamePass day 1.
@Dupre of Trinsic PT2 is already confirmed as Day 1 title
@saemi74 Cool, no surprise there.
Anyone that hasn’t seen it yet needs to watch Power On.
Xbox puts out 3 games, one very unfinished and wins?
Returnal, Deathloop, Ratchet & Clank, Kena…
SORRY BUT NO!
Might wanna get your facts straight and your math…
Xbox put out 5 games. Halo, ForzaHorizon5, Age of Empires4, FlightSim and Deathloop.
Kena is not a $ony game, but a timed exclusive.
Deathloop is Xbox and coming to Xbox and Game Pass.
$ony put out 3 new games in 2021: Returnal, R&C and MLB.
MLB was day 1 in Game Pass.
«Very unfinished» is that Returnal you´re talking about? That was a messy launch…
@SilverSaiyan500 dude i own xbox and those games really dont deserve any time to play
Most of them are crap
@Amin Zarei wrong Microsoft flight simulator and the ascent are pretty good and bright memory infinite is looking really good
@SilverSaiyan500 gears tactics released before the new xbox. Flight sim released before the new xbox.
You can only count the ascent, halo, forza, and the gunk.
Age of empire 4 is not on the console.
Yet magically you count pc as being a part of xbox and also manage to count flight sim because it was ported to xbox 🤦♂️
Also if third party do not count then remove the ascent. Thats 3 games now.
@SilverSaiyan500 how about virtual fighter 5, guilty gear and destruction all stars ? Ps5 owns 2021
also you can watch the power on story of xbox season one on Microsoft store for free And 2021 belongs to the xbox
I think 2022 is going to xbox biggest year ever
I hope Microsoft buys EA and puts them in line. Having EA titles like fifa would be groundbreaking
No.. before that we need WB games imagine Exclusives from super heroes
No need to buy EA, the partnership already puts thier games on gamepass
I’d rather M$ purchase WB Games and Take 2!
Yeah. Rocksteady are really good developers would be nice
My last console was the 360. Halo Infinite release had me look up what the newest consoles were because I’ve played Halo when it was under Bungie so long ago. I was VERY lucky, I went from not knowing there was an Xbox Series X to having one in three days flat. I’m very happy to get into this at this inflection point for the Xbox world. Lots of catching up to do (once I finished Halo Infinite, of course!) and lots to look forward to. Great video, thanks!
Wow people need to step out of their bubble, the only thing that xbox owned this year was most disappointing game of the year. Halo infinite was a boring slog compared to previous halos that received a graphics downgrade before release on the world’s most powerful xbox, its like since game pass went day and date for new releases they think its ok to drop the ball with AAA titles, worst still most of the community agrees with them. Wake up people.
Don’t they have a PR department for this kind of content? Seems to be 99% of Xbox channels/podcasts.
they got the biggest W in gaming today.
I really like how Microsoft stopped ignoring PC gamers. Keep it up X-Box, love the free games.
I have the series s and ps5. I bought the Xbox specifically for the backwards compatibility and Bethesda.
After getting the ps5 I’m a bit disappointed that I don’t really have anything to play….. Played Spiderman remastered and finished it today and finished miles Morales a few days ago. Now it’s literally a waiting game for something worth while to come out. I don’t like ratchet and clank but I bought hitman 3 on the ps5 which looks awesome
I’m being silly here, but I feel kinda funny about you playing/finishing Spider-Man: Miles Morales before you finished Spider-Man Remastered.
It just… weirds me out, man.
*shutters*
@Iskinder Bucari I finished Spiderman on the ps4 and then miles Morales after but on the ps5 my saves didn’t cross over so I did miles Morales first just for the fact it was shorter
Next year is going to be exciting! Can’t wait to see what the other Sony studios have planned and hopefully more news of PlayStation’s gamepass idea is announced!
Sony has zero games to compete and Farticus is just combining the two turd services into one steaming turd. 👍
PlayStation will never have anything as good as Xbox Game Pass
Lesssss gooo, Xbox is getting back into its glory days
I’m a playstation guy, and yeah xbox brought it this year. You love to see it. I’d love to get my hands on a Series X. Looking forward to 2022. So much amazing gaming to be had on all platforms.
A reasonable PlayStation player? get out of here
@jord 121 haha yeah the reasonable ones probably don’t engage on social media very often 😂 Don’t know why PS fans would be upset with xbox’s success. Competition is how we got the ps4 generation.
@Nolo Lothbrook lol look like u are becoming more of a Xbox fan now u don’t have push square skizzleaxe or even PlayStation themselves on your subscription channel section but u have Xbox and dealer and a few Xbox channels guess u switched up quickly 😂
Xbox has a Great unofficial Mobile System in the Backbone One Mobile Gaming Controller, which turns your phone into a Portable Xbox
If you told a PSFB this they would laugh in your face and tell you that the PlayStation 5 owned 2021. Which in all honesty the XBX practically owned Technology News throughout 2021. It doesn’t take a genius to do a little research to see how much the XBX was mentioned in 2021, and there is no denying this.
And if they still keep on just say ZeniMax Media and they will shuttle away to a corner and cry over Elders Scroll being an XBX Exclusive. XBX was strong throughout 2021 even Black Friday the biggest selling console wasn’t the PlayStation 5 it was the XBX. Oh, I bet that hurt like a bitch. 😂
When is Project Insignia finally releasing?
The moment they hit shelves ? Ummmm , I’ve yet to see a Series X on any shelve , they’ve been online orders for scalpers to grab. I would love to have seen them on shelves , but that was a lost luxury we don’t have anymore. There was two ways they could have done this better , one : actually sell them from stores and on the shelves
Two : let everyone order the one they want from stores so they can come in and pick it up when it arrives.
But no , they want to make them all online orders so scalpers can grab them and mark the price up double and in some cases triple the price , if they cared about the people getting the console , that’s what they would have done. They only cared about money and that’s why they don’t care if we can get one because they already got their money.
👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️
Delusional. Stop smoking that crack. Crack kills.
Halo Infinate was so boring I uninstalled it.. very overhyped and overrated.. Forza Horizon 5 was good for 2 weeks and then game got boring fast.. the only good games Microsoft has is the Gears Series.. that’s it.. maybe Halo 5 too.. Destiny 2 and ESO is the only games I play on Xbox.. the the honest to God truth.. don’t believe the hype
You don’t really have an Xbox do you? 😏
Halo is a overrated crap
But in my id a forza is soooo good
This video like a block of cheese has so many holes in it!!
You fanboys are all the same. Xbox took 2021, Sony have had the best 1st party, who cares.
I own both consoles and I couldn’t care less who does what. I just want to play games wherever ..
Halo GOTY, 7/10. Graphically it’s not great even for a cross gen game. The story is not good and the ending, well the less said the better. Lastly no variety in the open world everything looks the same.
As Halo fan it doesn’t touch the originals Fanboys!!!!!
That halo is crap
People just want to be obsessed with something
I think it’s safe to say M$ is going to own 2022 also!
I think its looking pretty even exclusives wise to be honest.
Got to love these delusional xbots. They don’t release a game for 12 months after the release of the xbox. Now they release 2 games at the end of the year. And suddenly they are killing it. Even though playstation has been releasing games consistently from the launch of the ps5 all the way throughout the 1st year.
But you guys can go ahead and take your imaginary W. But the rest of us that are living in reality know the truth. I’m kind of used to xbot damage control tactics these days.
God there are a lot of salty ass Sony Ponies out in the wild.
I thought you all had PCs? Why so mad?
People must realise Game pass is the massive game changer in gaming ,and with all the AAA games to come with all the new studios ,you would be a fool not to think Xbox are going places big time
Halo Infinite is freaking hot fire. Dark Souls is my favorite genre bar none. but I have to say Halo Infinite put my playthrough of Dark Souls remastered on hold and I never put a Souls games off for another title.
I agree .. Halo has been game of the year for me dude .. I already have about 10 days of play time between multiplayer and campaign lol
The Apple iPod turned 20yrs old in 2021 what did apple do ?
Nothing 👌🏻
Lets goo!!! xbox is beginning the counter offensive! Similar like the counter offensive in the east in January 1942! Now we encircle the playstation and continue to press relentlessly to win this new generation! 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Next year is gonna be more of the same! I can’t wait!!
Na…. Let add insult to Injury and say “stole”. Stole it from PlayStation because they got greedy
The beginning of the end for Sony and video games!
Was a pretty mediocre year to be honest.
Only new released games I bought was Resident Evil Village, Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods Part 2 and the Quake 1 game. Everything else been been lame, uninteresting drivel.
Still there is Dying Light 2 coming….but the real big one is Starfield at the end of 2022.
So happy that Friday I will be a two current gen console owner for the first time ever. I got my Series X on eBay last Christmas, and I just purchased my PS5 on eBaby today. Even though it was supposed to arrive next week on Tuesday I just tracked the package, and it said its in transit and should arrive this Friday. My Series X is going to be my go-to console like I have been saying, but it will be nice to have a PS 5 too for Sony exclusives. I miss PlayStation a little since last console generation I went with the PS4 and PS4 Pro when Microsoft pissed me off with their anti-consumer policies. I’m Team XBox again now, but I do want to play Spider-Man Mile Morales, Rachet and Clank, Horizon Forbidden West, and any other good Sony exclusives that may come out. XBox is my favorite, but I am not a fanboy fanatic that acts like they can’t enjoy games on both consoles. Since I got the Series X last year and my PS5 is on the way I might buy myself a Switch for my birthday in May even though I haven’t purchased anything from Nintendo since I got rid of my Super Nintendo and got a PlayStation back in 1997
Xbox is the best
What Xbox needs to focus on in the future is innovative hardware. PSVR 2 will be dropping soon and Xbox has nothing like that. Games like Resident Evil 7 were great on PSVR last generation. Xbox has nailed their business model (Game Pass) and has enough studios now to keep pumping out AAA exclusives regularly. But it is now time to give us exciting hardware that can make games more immersive.
You mean sick Hardware 🤣🤢
LMAO, the only thing OWNed are the gaming studios that they buy like Bethesda because Microsoft is unable to have a solid first party line-up on their own! The PlayStation brand will always remain supreme!
It wun eem no actual games til November lol. 2 bangers at the end of the year but every other console had exclusives all year long, not just 2 months
The main reason why that happened has one name: Phil Spencer
He did everything just perfect, even recognised when they did wrong like changing the Gold and GP price and revoking the changes. He is not just after the money but gaming culture no matter what device you have.
Xbox done what??? Wow so much denile… have they had a better year?? Yes but have they dominated this year….God no!! Not only has gamepass stagnated ps5 has sold twice the amount… they released 2 triple AAA games after having nothing for 2 years…
Still crying on Xbox videos without a single game, feature or specs to even compete all gen. Poor little unicornkid. 🤫🦄🌈✔️
@Ryan only took the xbox defence a few hours to spring into action this time… probably zalker’s sock account 🤣🤣
@Chad Studd You are literally crying on an Xbox video about the irrelevant, underpowered, featureless, gameless, obsolete tech PeasantStation. 🤦
@Ryan you might wanna come back to the real world champ
@Chad Studd Just facts little unicornkid. Why not go to a unicorn channel and talk about your kiddie games and complete lack of a single next gen feature? 🥕🏇💨
how about pc? pc always wins.
Love your videos, you deserve the best for your channel!
I’m a Sony guy or rather was I got every Sony console from ps1 to ps5 and I’ve only had like 2 Xboxes in the past the original and 360 release but this gen I picked up the series x together with the ps5 and I must say that xbox isn’t competing they are leading and that kinda makes me happy because I like to see that type of turnarounds it makes it much more interesting than having Sony dominate forever.
The gaming landscape will never be the same with what Xbox has done in 2021.
The delusion of the xbot is something to behold….console releases a game that should have been released at launch a year ago «Xbox dominated 2021». 🤣. Brace yourself folks, 2022 is here.
Xbox has been so good this year. I have been playing so many games on Game Pass and I am having a blast with Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5. Xbox isn’t messing around anymore. And we are still getting more exciting stuff next year, I can’t wait!
That’s why I’m happy I have all 3 consoles and a PC. I love all gaming.
I love xbox and all. But owned ps5 in 2021? please…. In value yes it is much better but in sales they are not even close. I have barely touched my ps5 after getting my series x but lets face reality.
Microsoft owns 2 of the GOTY contenders too. Deathloop and Psychonauts 2.
xbox had an amazing year, saying it owend 2021 😪 because if we talk about
sales/money made nintendo second place is playstation, xbox in third, xbxox also had the least exclusives/timed exclusives released as well, again all these big companies did amazong and gamepass being a great deal for the people is going well and has been the best thing for xbox but in no way has it owned 2021
