The point is that is the only number that anyone should reference. Also, nowhere in EA's statement does it say that bundles are not counted, although it clearly makes a distinction between digital sales. MS pays for the game in bulk, thereby qualifying it as "sold" and attaches it to a bundle; that's how bundles work.

Looks like I'm playing the Fact Police today. From Sony's own press release in late 2012: 15 million Moves sold. Takes about 30s to find that info with a Google search. You should be a fiction-fantasy author, considering your aptitude for revisionist history and make-believe.

Last reported figure was 950K on X1, during launch month, and EA has refused, in their own conference call even, to update the figures since then. Stop pulling numbers out of your a$$, or from VGC, which is basically the same source.
It's an actual fact that you're wrong. CAPS won't change that. Just look at Metacritic, or any release schedule to see how misguided you actually are.
You'll get dozens of disagrees for posting factual information regarding the disparity in the volume of games available on each platform, but bubbles for the effort.
@dcboy
Add LBP, Singstar, Planetside 2, GG: Xerd (spelling?), Natural Doctrine, and Kingdom Under Fire to the list, and you start to realize how desperately Xbox fanboys are grasping at straws. PS4 has more exclusives, more releases overall, and the best-performing versions of multiplat games to boot (on console, not PC).
Next month's NPD will bring a whole new level of delusion and goal-post moving to the debate.
Because MS spending gobs of money on advertising has worked so well with the public thus far, in this gen? The same people that go for the Halo Remastered are the same people that bought an X1 for TF: the diehards. Sales during March, where the console and the game could be had for $450 or less, have already proven that the X1's issues are deeper than marketing, price, or perceived value.
So much wishful thinking from so many jaded fans, who should be directing their ange...
There is no "issue", other than peoples' skewed perceptions of reality. PS4 has twice as many announced and available games, when compared to the X1. Why is this fallacy still being perpetuated. The reality of what is available on each platform now:

@ Septic. You keep making what you believe to be clever analogies, but you have yet to admit that you brought "boring" as an opinion into this discussion. You do not decide what boring is for other people, only for yourself does that judgment apply. But please keep jumping fences and throwing out more and more gibberish whenever you fail to tackle issues that you have raised. Its almost unbearable to read what you write, because its so hilariously full of ranting and poorly worded. ...
Exactly. Everything "works best" on a wired-connection. This isn't news, its a cheap manipulation of words for a click-bait headline.
@ Septic. Getting all worked up isn't good for you. More deflection, again, with the "tears" comment, as usual. If you haven't noticed, I'm not the one throwing around exclamation points, creating graphics to illustrate my insanity, and generally working myself up into a frenzy. In fact, little of anything in my posts comes off as excited. You, on the other hand, are acting like a chihuahua who got into mommy's speed. It is delightful, however, imagining the red-face...
Since this is in Japan, I hope that they were talking about Legend of Dragoon, or Wild Arms. We've missed a generation, or two, with each, which is shameful.
I didn't say that the entire game should be structured like that, only that "some" of it should be. Its features like that that keep gamers hooked, while away from the F2P and DLC money-grind. Diablo 3 has elements, which include randomized loot-dungeons and do a great deal to extend the game, without additional fees.
It would be nice if this game had some random, or procedural elements for enemies and quests (like in Skyrim), but I haven't read anything to that effect anywhere, as of yet. Gameplay like that would really keep me hooked to a single-player game.
@ Septic.
Allow me to spell it out for you: the spurious premise of this article is that MS and Sony have somehow "swapped messaging". You supported this, in essence, with your rebuttals and claims that the show was "boring" (your words, immortalized--also falls into that "opinion" camp for which you were slamming another poster). The idea that Sony's show was somehow less about games, right there, is wholly untrue. They showed more, empirica...
@Septic
Again, you miss the mark, which isn't surprising, given your ability to obfuscate and to be obtuse. Sony showed more games at their presser, period. Count them up, over twice as many as MS had at their event. Oh, and they managed to talk about new hardware and media services too. Any other assessment is hyperbole, willful disregard, or delusion. I imagine you have a rebuttal that falls under all three categories. F2P games count, and they showed a flash reel of ov...
It wouldn't be N4G if people did that. They don't even do it on Neogaf. What is this mythic site that you speak of, where persons examine all the information at hand before putting forth opinions?
Read the article? Its the TV buisiness that's killing their profit, movie, cellphones and gaming are all doing quite well. He's turning it around, its just not happening fast enough for some investors. Its all written in the article. No concern trolling is necessary.
Well, its F2P, so you'll get the whole game for free soon enough.
Just like that Titanfall 900p patch, right? I mean that happened...Oh, wait. Its amazing how easily people fall for PR nonsense.
