Rimeskeem4487d ago

@ArmGunar

and when it releases in Japan it will have over 10 million

FamilyGuy4486d ago

Lol, if the PS3 gets a price drop it'll end up out-selling the X1. Just look have close their sales have been already.

FATAL1TY4486d ago

Way ahead. I'm wondering if they held back some stock units, since it's not even out in Japan yet. Things are looking really good so early on.

blackpanther254487d ago

Damnnnnn....i forgot the ps4 is not out yet in japan.

T24487d ago

Japan will be a bloodbath for Sony as usual. Downright painful

Ashlen4487d ago

Hmm, I'm not one to question Vgchartz but 2 hours ago they had different numbers posted.

These were the January 25'th numbers before.

PS4 151,876
XBO 72,751
PS3 67,526

aceitman4487d ago

they where estimated numbers till the final numbers came in.

Bathyj4487d ago

That comment is so funny Im giving you a bubble for it.

Ashlen4487d ago

Everything on the site is an estimate. It's impossible to get sales from every single retailer. That has been stated on the site itself many times.

PS4 68,458 62,752 N/A 151,876
3DS 39,427 45,939 39,439 134,129
XOne 50,446 17,600 N/A 72,751
PS3 14,623 24,053 13,619 67,526
WiiU 20,459 9,895 9,039 42,318
PSV 3,733 10,242 22,386 41,809
X360 22,445 12,749 321 38,381
PSP 1,272 9,816 3,496 21,318
Wii 6,048 6,944 391 14,695

I dunno it's just strange that all the other numbers seem to have stayed the same except PS4 and XBO...

TheTrooper4487d ago

Lol, you got these XBox fanboys downvoting you.

Rimeskeem4487d ago

To make it up to them the xbox one got all the sales it deserved too

NatureOfLogic4487d ago

PS4 is starting to dominate like everyone predicted. MS flooding retailers with Xbones can only get them so far. February gap will be even wider.

Concertoine4487d ago

You realize that the retailers buy the xbone from MS..? MS cant just ship 10 xbones a week to involuntary retailers.
Its clear that they overestimated sales and have plenty left over to ship as needed.

Bathyj4487d ago

Wow. Nearly 5 million already.

PS4 will lead be 3 million at least by the end of March.

Dun dun DUUUUUUN.

ABizzel14487d ago

If sales are consistent numbers should be

PS4: 5.6m (excluding Japan launch)
XBO: 3.8m

PS4 should easily top 6 million consoles sold by the end of February with the Japanese launch. Now they need to work on getting PSV TV to NA and EU bundled with DualShock 4, and patched for touch controls to help Vita sales, and Sony will be all good.

Unlike Japan I can see PSV TV taking off in NA and EU, because prices is always one of the major primary choices in buying gaming hardware. Hopefully it gets the rush it needs to get a bit more 3rd party support, and 1st party support.

KakashiHotake4487d ago

I think holiday time will be the best time to push the Vita Tv bundles in NA.

Sarcasm4487d ago

It will get an easy 400-500k by Feb 22nd.

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

Cacabunga21d ago

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot19d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose21d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE20d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername20d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy20d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde20d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8620d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8620d ago (Edited 20d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300020d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle20d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7720d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
