160 people pre-ordered The Last Guardian this week!

Eonjay4612d ago

LOL. And in a few years when the Last Guardian is dominating the charts, Sony might actually have to produce something.

NewMonday4610d ago (Edited 4610d ago )

- 360 still dominating in the USA

- PS4 has 4 games in the top 10 vs 2 for XB1

- AC4 numbers are almost identical for the PS4 and the current leader the 360, the PS4 achieving this on launch vs a console with an 8 year old install base means the gamer migration will be BIG and FAST.

- Killzone: Shadow Fall at #7 is the only exclusive overall in the top 20

Eonjay4612d ago

Interesting note: Xbox One future owners are overwhelmingly picking COD over Battlefield 4. PS4 future owners are are more balanced between the two. Any theories as to why the COD is dominating so much on Xbox?

lastofgen4612d ago

Well, considering that vgchartz gets their pre-orders wrong many times, I wouldn't want to make any conclusions based on this data.

grassyknoll4612d ago

DLC comes out a month early on Xbox One. Its depressing timed dlc has such a big impact on sales.

Eonjay4612d ago

That not what I mean. I mean COD vs BF4.

COD is essentially tied on XB1 and PS4.
Also COD and BF4 are essentially tied of PS4.
But COD is destroying BF4 on Xbox One.

grassyknoll4612d ago

In response to your reply: Call of Duty DLC comes to Xbox One a month early, so Call of Duty fans are buying it for that platform (& more likely to buy the system)

Eonjay4611d ago

Again, thats not my question! I am talking about COD and BF4

not Xbox One vs PS4

gedden74612d ago

Think about it..

CoD on Next Gen is the same exact game but better lighting and shadows (not to mention the groundbreaking fish AI tech)..

So what kind of "gamer" would buy that for the xbone or ps4? The uneducated, casual gamer...

AceBlazer134612d ago

i have 2.
1. maybe because as much as they defend games like ryse and forza they really aren't that interested (ironic how they used to think they had more exclusives when none of them are getting support)

2. anyone who would waste money on xbox one obviously is a diehard xbox fan and cod and xbox go hand in hand like pb&j.

lastofgen4612d ago

I'm sorry, but you don't deserve even that one bubble. A comment like yours belongs to the once-existing open-zone on n4g.

And don't even get me started on your 2 statements. I can find so many breaks/inaccuracies in your arguments that it'd blow your mind.

Hicken4612d ago

And yet, rather than details those inaccuracies, you spend your entire comment trying to attack his bubble count.

Meanwhile, your other comment doesn't say much of anything, but just tries to dismiss the numbers out of hand so you don't have to deal with them.

Didn't you used to have one bubble, too, lastofgen?

roland824612d ago

Sony fanboys like you really make me not want a ps4.

torchic4612d ago (Edited 4612d ago )

I think you could've made your points in a better way but your first is absolutely spot on.

Ryse, Forza and Dead Rising 3 are all languishing at the foot of the pre-order charts. CoD has always traditionally sold a lot more on Xbox (much like FIFA always sells a lot more on PlayStation) so I guess it's just a case of the vocal minority vs. the quiet majority. most Xbox gamers shifting to next-gen want more of the same, CoD & Halo. you just had to take a look at the tweets during the CoD: Ghosts MP reveal to see that and there's nothing wrong with that.

same goes with PlayStation. there's a very strong base of players there who enjoy games from Japanese devs (that would never sell even 10 copies on Xbox) so that group of players will expect similar support when shifting to PS4.

otherZinc4612d ago (Edited 4612d ago )

@AceBlazer,

I'm buying the only 1080p "native" @ 60fps game releasing on next gen consoles; Forza 5.

I've yet to pre-order it (the collectors edition) as I'm going to buy 2 copies of Dead Rising 3, 2 copies of COD, & Skylanders. Buying 2 of some games for co-op play with my kids as I've done with XBOX for years now.

XBOX ONE is far from a waste as everyone in my family will have many uses for the XBOX ONE.

That's where my disappointment with the PS4 is: Killzone:SF not having a co-op feature in its campaign in 2013 is inexcusable.

We've been playing campaign co-op since the Regular XBOX & its flagship shooter Halo, why is Killzone:SF not doing this...it's ridiculous. AND NO, that side mission co-op KZ:SF is offering for a $20 download isn't campaign & not satisfactory!

It likely has a lot to do with the way COD is marketed here among other things.

JunoDivided4612d ago

Because XBOX is arguably more popular in the US (we will see when it finally comes out) and US audiences are typically more biased and don't like change therefore they are buying COD

Niv4612d ago

Still no Titanfall on the list.

4612d ago
Bundi4612d ago

Still no infamous on the list. No Halo 5 either. No The Order on the list.

Wow I wonder what these 2014 games with no release dates have in common that's keeping them off the chart list...oh yeah, they are 2014 games and have no release dates!!

Why don't you turn your worries towards DriveClub instead?

Hicken4612d ago

None of the other games you listed were originally thought to be launch titles.

TitanFall was.

Bundi4612d ago

Originally? By whom? DriveClub was not thought to be a launch title either?

Hicken4611d ago

I'm talking about inFamous, Halo, The Order.

Drive Club's got the incentive of pretty much having a free trial that leads into a discounted retail edition. So you're gonna have some people that preorder it, but smart people would test it out with Plus first, THEN get the full version if they liked it.

But I guess that wouldn't impact preorder numbers at all, huh? We should worry about Drive Club's numbers, because nobody would be smart with their money and take the Plus route, right?

Lalanana4612d ago

Very good numbers for both consoles. Keep it up.

christocolus4612d ago (Edited 4612d ago )

i never judge sales of anything based on preorder numbers but its good to see the xbox one games making some significant increase over previous weeks..

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes - 10 Years of Brick Bustin'

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes made it's debut 10 years ago today, and remains a popular entry in the series of LEGO videogames.

badz149951d ago

The game so good I had to buy it twice on the PS4!

actually, it was because my toddler broke my first copy in half LOL

ChasterMies950d ago

My kids thought I was dumb for selling the Xbox 360 and buying a PS4 until Legal Marvel Superheroes dropped on PS+ a couple of months later. The game is like GTA for kids with couch co-op and a lot of humor.

badz149949d ago

The game is still one of the best LEGO games ever IMO. The sequel was a letdown for me

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth1564d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo1564d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy1564d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad1564d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX1564d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam1564d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje1564d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad1563d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude1564d ago (Edited 1564d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain
