The fact that they are doing this indicates they are confident in the game getting over an 80 on Metacritic. MSFT and Sony play the same BS game. If they think a game might disappoint - they wont let anyone see anything until they have stolen your preorder $$. If they have something really good to show - they will.

The bad part is people are soo stupid this works. Destiny sells 3.22mm on PS4 vs 550k for Mordor. The buggy, POS DC will probably outsell FH2. I cant believe...

Obviously Destiny has A LOT more to learn from BL then vice versa - but BL could learn a few things too. For me MP in BL is an after thought like Diablo. I think it would be great to make a large number of of quests sooo tough that they require a group. Introduce a new tier of ridonkulous gear that is locked to 4-6 man epic raids.

I'd also love them to introduce competitive MP, but not just in instanced BS games like CTF, Dominance or Hutt Ball. Do it like Dark/Demon ...

I'm an Xbox fan and even I have to agree the PS4 is killing it. If MCC doesn't lead to a few weeks of big wins in at least the US, then we have an issue. Xbone outsold by 50% in US and 3:1 in Europe! Worse yet Fifa and Mordor out sold 2:1 on PS3+PS4 vs 360+one. FH2 ONLY sold 250k!!!! Software sales are key to getting continued support. Good news - of this turns into a continued rout expect X two in a few years.

I've got an Xbone and am looking forward to SO. But this list is garbage. 7 of the items are the ability to change how you look, which has minimal impact on game play.

MSFT said it has been spending $4-$5 BILLION a year on cloud servers for the last 3 or 4 years. I think there servers will hold up fine. The gap between their resources and Sony is massive.

Wow that's a real shame. Now the game will sell only 40 copies instead of 60.

DC is disappointing. But so were Killzone and to a lesser extent Infamous. Disappointing doesn't mean bad, just not as good as expected.

Sorry no. It may be a brilliant game, but so we're Dark/Demon Souls. Those had very modest sales on a FAR larger install base across 2 platforms and PC. This will sell 1st copies if it's lucky. No way it competes with H5 or UC.

Wrong. XBone GPU has same Tflop rating as a 750ti (1.3) and access to a lot more ram. PS4 has Tflop rating slightly below a 192 bit 760 (1.8 vs 1.9) not the 256 bit which jumps to 2.3. And with coding "to the metal", getting rid of backwards compatibility overhead and the lack of optimization due to cpu/GPU fragmentation - you COULD get better results out of XBONE or PS4 then 750ti. BUT you are pairing the 750ti with a 4th gen core i5 or i7. That blows the AMD APU in the Xbone ...

It's not. Not for gaming. Sure you get the nongaming functionality of PC, but a console like the PIC or Xbone delivers 25% to 50% more oomph then the equivalent PC parts because of optimizations that aren't possible for games made to run on tens of thousands of different configurations.

None of these are GAMES

Worked great for the last driving game that tried it.

Destiny needs an open world and less instancing.

4139d ago 2 agree0 disagreeView comment

That's one way to win in Japan - rename it the PerveBox and allow full nudity cartoon school girl, tentacle nuke holocaust anime-porn and have an upskirt channel. Give XBone a new meaning.

And I'm an HUGE XBone supporter so I'm not trolling!

Prediction Time.

XBone has sold 20.6mm software titles globally so far. TF 2.17mm, COD 2.04mm, Destiny 1.76mm, F5 1.52mm and BF 1.46mm.

How many copies of H-MCC do you think get sold BEFORE Black Friday?

My prediction is 2.5mm. By the start of next year I think 5mm.

By comparison I expect FH2 to close in on F5's 1.5mm and SO to do 1mm.

The difference between Xbone and PS4 is 900p vs 1080p at most. 40% more pixels! And you play both on a TV from 10' away. Science will tell you that you can't tell the difference unless you have better then 20/20 vision. But Sony trolls are like antivaxxers that don't believe in science. They swear the difference is night and day. But I'll trust the tens of thousands of dollars in video gear I have including. 65" 1080p Panny plasma, a 50" Samsung plasma and a 10...

I have no problem with anyone that says there isn't anything that they personally want to play - for either system - YET. I feel the same way about the PS4. The multi plats I want play (Wolf, Mordor, sports) are just as good on Xbone as PS4 and every exclusive I PERSONALLY want to play is on Xbone - DR3, F5, FH2, SSO and MCC. Who am I to say you have to like these more than ISS, LBP or DC. It's called an opinion and everyone is allowed one.

The people I have a prob...

WiiU is starting to put together 1 hell of a library. Might have to buy one.

First of all this is just US, so it's not that unbelievable that MSFT will win a month every once in awhile. They have won weeks before. In fact with MCC and SO, they are gonna move a lot of consoles in the next 3 months. I wouldn't be surprised if they win Xmas. Not saying it's 100% guaranteed, just a possibility.
