If you preordered before our cutoff that we had then yeah you will for sure. We were told by Sony to push for sales because EB?Gamestop have a deal in place that guarantees our units. They will pull stock from every retailer EXCEPT us. Hope that helps ease your worries!
My store it's definitely the case. I came into work and was told to take as many preorders as possible.
Results so far:
PS4 = 136 preorders (sold 47 units in day and a half)
Xbox One = 16 preorders (out of allocation of 30)
Cause the U.S. represents the world?
Up where I'm, my store has these numbers.
PS4 = 136 preorders
Xbox One 16 preorders (of 30 available units)
So it's going to take awhile for Xbone to catch up.
When I worked my last shift in my store on saturday the numbers for my store were.
PS4 = 136 preorders
Xbox One = 16 preorders (30 total units available)
My store is one of the stores that were slightly skewed towards 360 sales, so this was pretty telling for me. We were told up to friday take as many PS4 preorders as possible because Sony guaranteed they would fill our stock promising to pull from every retailer EXCEPT EB/Gamestop. So yeah Xbox On...
I was wondering if Sony could do something to allow people to play their old games. through Gaikai. I don't know how things are encoded, but, I assume every disc has some basic form of recognition of a game. If there is some kind of verification on a disc like I put in my ps3 game Uncharted 2, couldn't they just let you put your old ps3 game in and verify you own the game and allow Gaikai to stream it based off of recognizing the disc? Not actually reading the whole disc or rende...
How about the countries that don't have good internet? The people out in rural areas? They won't benefit from cloud computing will they?
The stuff for cable tv, how about if you don't have cable and only have Netflix? Then why would you care?
Pretty sure the bad guy with sunglasses and the people in that room were all speaking German not Russian. Although the guys that were outside at the 6 minute part were speaking Russian I think.
How about putting Monster Hunter on the PS3? You know how ridiculous the sales were on the PSP, but, Capcom decides not to bring that success to the PS3 with a new game? Instead they decide to put it on the Wii U?! So put one of the top capcom franchises on the system that moved 3.5 million units instead of the one that is near 80 million?! Yeah I'm going to guess the sales would be disappointing.
Those games are tied to your system, what happens if it breaks or the battery dies and is irreplaceable? What then?
Those numbers are only inflated because they purposely didn't send copies of their game to stores. I had customers coming in and caving buying points to purchase fire emblem as a last resort after multiple failed attempts to get a physical copy from us.
We were told to sell codes by Nintendo, because it looked like no one was getting more copies. Then guess what? We ran out of codes as well (seriously I had a WTF?! moment when we sold out of a digital code), so yeah ...
I think I'd like to see

First person shooter. The Syfy show and game are connected, the characters show up early on and make 'appearances' throughout the game and vice versa apparently.
Yeah they get 5-6 million units moved just in europe alone, why would they jeopardize sales and martet share like that? Sure they get some money up front from MS, but, that lost marketshare might not come back. 4 months is a long time and it'll ensure their products are forgotten. Out of sight out of mind as they say.
"I have PS3 so it doesn't matter to me, but I think it would have helped sales in the USA or Europe if it was for 360 too. "
"I hate that its exclusive to sony though :I "
Because that's where the market is. Not much point making the game for 360 when in Japan all the potential customers own ps3's. Kind of the same reason we see so many RPGs on the ps3.
It also says "And Other Next Generation Consoles."
I hear it plays MKV and MP4 files so if that's true it'll be the reason I buy it is to play video files, lol.
Until Dawn is a playstation move game, so yeah it's not going to be on any other platform. Also it's a Sony studio game.
I think they should re-release Aliens vs. Predator arcade game. It was an awesome game.

I love that people are defending microsoft by saying nothing has been sold like preorders don't make a difference? That is insane, my store as of the weekend had 165 PS4 preorders and we had only 22 xbox one preorders, microsoft would be insane to be okay with that, why do you think xbox one changed their tune so quickly? We only have a total of 30 units available for xbox one in my EB games and we've only sold 22. We are sold out of day one PS4 and in the couple days I didn't ...
