Mid April would be a good time to announce the new console IMO. Show some features, specs and 3-4 games, build hype for E3 2013 and show all you got. I bet Sony and MS will do the exact same thing.

The Xbox 720 game I am looking forward to the most is Halo 5. Yeah, I am a Halo nerd and LOVE the franchise. Other than that I am curious to see what Black Tusk and Redmond are working on. The first game as a 1st party studio by PressPlay looks awesome so far, so I hope MS gives th...

Nope.

The 41% market share includes the Wii U.

PS3 is at 220k for this month.

By cutting the price by 50 - 100 USD and release a popular game in Japan.

And where are all the Japan =/= the world comments? In the next 2-3 weeks the Vita will be behind the 3DS again in every region.

This is another urban myth story. Replaced RRoD units are not counted as a sale as long as they are under warranty. And the warranty was extended to 3 years, so a VERY tiny fraction bought a Xbox 360 twice and even less because of RRoD.

I bought two Xbox 360s. One for the living and one for the bedroom.

Anyway, Microsoft and the next Xbox is in a MUCH better position than they were last gen after the original Xbox. Sony on the other hand is in a much worse ...

I think Skype and TV services are actually quite a big selling point for many many users. And let's be honest 99.5% of the games will be multiplat anyway.

And all this "strictly focused on games" is stupid IMO. I would be pissed of my next xbox wasn't a multimedia hub for the living room. That is actually something positive, yet people spin this in something negative. And if the rumored specs are true, the next Xbox can EASILY play games like Killzone 4 as w...

Gaikai will be for backwards compatibility and it won't be free. MS charges for multiplayer gaming, Sony charges for backward compatibility. You heard it here first.

That was pretty awesome.

15k less than the 3DS right after a price cut and a pretty big title coming out in a few days is good?

Care to explain?

Especially with new smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy SIV coming up, which has way better specs than the Vita.

Niche is one way to describe it. Dead is a better one.

4854d ago 2 agree14 disagreeView comment

Only on N4G is a flop like PSABR that sells 450k worldwide a "fan-service" and a hit like Kinect Sports that sells 5.52 million a "waste of time and talent".

Even better:

People say that Rare is dead now, because they only make Kinect games (Again, they developed 1 (ONE) Kinect game - Kinect Sports. Season 2 was developed by BigPark).

But in reality the developer of PSABR is dead. Like REALLY dead, they had to close the ...

Still not enough to be a relevant gaming platform.
The Vita is dead in the West for some time now. It died last holiday season.

And it gets outsold by the direct competition in the last remaining gaming market that actually cares about handhelds - Japan.

my thoughts exactly. You can quote me on that:

NO way in hell will sony ship 16 million PS4s in 2013.
For example the PS3 had 2 million consoles available in its release-year in 2006.

Kinect was a huge success (eventhough you guys still try to deny it) and it sold 8 million in its release-year. Both...

It is the week after the price cut guys. This is actually a bad sign for things to come.

Soul Sacrifice might keep the sales going for antother 2 weeks or so but in April you will see the Vita below 25k again.

4856d ago 5 agree46 disagreeView comment

45k is still poor after a $50 / $100 price cut.
Heck the 3DS outsells the PS Vita almost 2:1 the week after the price cut.

Let's see how sustainable these sales are.

Seems legit. -.-

Because according to OFFICIAL statements, there is not even a next Xbox planned.

MS: No the Xbox 360 is still our only console, we won't replace it anytime soon... But the successor will not block used games. Thank you.
