I agree with the first bit of your post. There will always be hypocrisy amongst fanboys. The Xbone gets criticized for running games at 900p and so should the PS4.
Besides that, ND never promised 60 fps, they were targeting 60 fps. Thats a big difference.
I always thought backwards compatibility was important for me too. But when I got the PS3 launch model (with bc), I actually never played PS2 games on it.
I'd much prefer UI improvements and friends online notifications and stuff like that.
The reviewer writes that the game needs more aim assist cause apparently he's too incompetent to play without aim assist (along with other bs arguments). Then yeah, it's a clickbait.
Honsestly, if this guy thinks he's entitled to write reviews and is a selfrespecting gamer, how can you say a game needs more aim assist? That's like a professional football player saying there needs to be a piece of metal in his shoe and a magnet in the ball cause he loses the b...
@WalterWJR Lol where is XBLSkull when the facts slap him in the face. It's funny that these guys are among the first to comment when a 'fact' (rumour) is a positive thing for their console, but when reality comes along they are nowhere to be found.
@TXIDarkAvenger
I don't think you understand the meaning of humiliating.
PS2: 158 million
Xbox: 25 million
GC: 24 million
If that isn't humiliating than I don't know what is...
@DeadManMMX God I hate when people say: "look at it objectively". You sound like your opinion is a fact, but guess what, it's an OPINION. The thing is, you can't look at it objectively because it's all subjective. So if a PS fan (like me) looks at it SUBJECTIVELY, he might say that he thinks it was a brilliant show. The best of e3 2015. But that's my opinion.
Even though vgchartz is not very accurate, the US is still a very competitive market (unlike Europe where the PS4 is decimating the Xbone). MS closed the gap in the US quite a bit during the holiday season. After that it has been growing again since january. And the big software difference for this week is because of the release of bloodborne.
@Utalkin2me
Haha you're right. And this guy is definitely nominated for the funniest and most retarded post of the month. Ah who am I kidding, he's already won it.
Except X1 didn't outsell PS4 in november. X1 only took november in the US and UK. Nobody denied that, only the margin was up for debate.
So who's in denial here?
The 13.5 million shipped were from september 30th, from sony's financial report. If you look at vgchartz global sales from around september 30th, you'll see that they had the ps4 at around 12 million (some pretty good guess work from vgc I think). So so far we agree. Sony had about 1.5 million PS4's in the pipeline.
But due high demand from the holidays, I think the number of PS4's in the pipeline is way lower now. Sony themselves admitted that today.
@italiangamer
Agreed, MS was so desperate for a win they chewed off another $20 for black friday. Making the price cut $70 during that weekend.
Even a monkey in a suit would have made all the price cut and free games decisions if it wanted to win november. I don't get why people are praising MS for this. It's pretty clear now that Sony would have won november if both consoles had the same pricepoint.
@HeMan
I've seen you desperately defending ryse on several topics about The order and Uncharted. You're right, there is no denying... That the Order looks so much better than ryse.
You're confusing US sales with worldwide sales. Xbone probably won november in the US. PS4 still sold better worldwide.
@Lev1903
I'm actually throwing a party tonight to celebrate the PS4's awesome sales...
But seriously, why do you make such a big deal out of my comment? I was just pointing out that the deal between EA and MS mostly benefits EA and Sony. I didn't say anything about consumers. I agree, the deal is good for xbox owners. But my point still stands.
And again you start to talk about games in an article that is about sales. But if you w...
@lev1903
Well this is an article about sales, so it's not a discussion about who has the most games here. I'm just replying on a comment, what does that have to do with me having Sony shares?
And yes, I do like it when the PS4 sells well. Because on the long term that means Sony will invest more in PlayStation because it's becoming more and more important for the company as a whole.
@abzdiine
Funny thing is, EA's partnership with MS is actually a win for both EA and Sony. MS pays for all the marketing costs for EA's games, while Sony and EA are cashing in on PS4.
Exactly,I have the feeling that Sony will only respond if they really have to. There's a big difference between Sony and MS this gen. Sony is in it to win AND make profit, MS just wants to win (at all costs apparently). And if you look at amazons current best sellers list, the 399 PS4 without any free games is currently above the 349 Xone with two free games. I know this doesn't represent the entire sales in the US at the moment, but it's definitely an indication that Sony is doin...
@ABizzel1
Ok good point. But if you're right than they will lose all the momentum they gained during the holidays. I understand they want to win the holidays but this makes it a pretty desperate short term move.
I don't think the price will go back to 399 again. It's a marketing trick, by saying the price reduction is only for two months more people will be tempted to buy one now. MS knows that if the price goes up again, their sales will collapse in january and PS4 will easily take the lead again. I wouldn't be surprised when MS anounces the Xone will be 350 worldwide in january.
On topic: Good week for MS in the USA even though they had to dig very deep to get there. Ev...
Nope, it's actually an average of 1.3 million a month. A qaurter is three months not four months.
