Well... the thing is the goal is to sell copies and make a profit to fund the next game.

"playing" doesn't mean a person actually paid.

The problem is that Microsoft doesn't provide real numbers and makes up records to break.

Look at BandaiNamco today they released actual sales figures for Ni No Kuni 2 not some BS "players" number which allows then to double count and manipulate numbers to make it seem like it did better compared to any traditional measurement of success.

A lot of the flack Microsoft receives would be greatly reduced if they would just stop with all the B.S...

But the difference is lots of people claim bugs on State of Decay, you however are the first person I have seen say God of War crashed.

I set like ten records this morning alone.

It's easy to break records when you just make up category's on the spot and don't compare yourself to anyone else.

Well look at the actual profit from game pass.

It's 100 games sold for $10 those games can't be free. Microsoft is selling it's new games for pennies.

10.00/100=.10 they are selling their games for =<10 cents.

I don't know how they plan to fund future game development using this sales model with out going hardcore GaaS.

"players"

How many people that "played" State of Decay paid 10 cents or less for it on gamepass? Not to mention game share and people who bought in on PC who got a free copy on xbox who I'm sure you double counted.

Get back to me when you have actual sales figures.

Now I don't consider this an accurate representation but I just checked Twitch and Detroit is #1 and God of War which released over a month ago i...

The first game had long legs, I expect this game will also. I imagine it'll settle somewhere between 1.5 and 2 million buy the time it's as old as NNK1 was when they released NNK2.

Either way 900,000 is really good for a game like this.

How about all the other exclusives like Horizon:Zero Dawn or Uncharted or Detroit or Gow of War or Gravity Rush 2 or Yakuza or Street Fighter 5 or Nioh or Bloodborn or Odin Sphere and many more including upcoming games like Spider-Man, The Last of Us 2, Ghosts of Tsushima, Death Stranding, Dreams, Dragon Quest and many more.

That is just a short list of highly rated PS4 exclusives.

Oh and you can play also Witcher 3 and all the other multi-platforms.

2 more years or 4 more years of PS4 outselling xbox 3:1 what does it matter?

I saw Starlink and I said to myself, "huh a AAA space shooter that could be cool". Then I watched the trailer and saw the toys you have to buy and attach to your controller... and I said to myself (to quote Jim Sterling) "Oh Ubisoft"...

I could see that, like Demon Souls where the tendency changed.

@G3ng4r

So in your previous comment you complain about people on wiki saying what they think it is for not having information yet here you are complaining and telling people what it is with out any actual information.

Just relax, wait until they reveal concrete information about the game.

To be fair they said that after I posted my comment.

It was in development for PC, not PS4.

And regardless Sony has had much better quality control across the board on it's games than Microsoft..

The launch state of H1Z1 is better than PUBG is after being in beta on xbox for months.

Keep dreaming.

@agnosticgamer

It seems dotesports.com needs the Microsoft brand thesaurus too.

How about we use the link from Microsoft

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Passes 3 Million "****PLAYERS"**** on Xbox One

https://news.xbox.com/en-us...

Article from Jan 2018... So get out you...

H1Z1 got 1.5 million downloads the first day.

BTW Did you get Ni No Kuni 2 at launch on your xbox?

@agnosticgamer

That's 4 million people "have played it".

Please get your Microsoft brand thesaurus out so you can understand the marketing terminology.

PUBG launch in beta on xbox was an absolute mess.

H1Z1 launch in beta on PS4 runs nearly flawlessly.

You can say what you want but clearly Sony has better quality control and it's not just these two games you can use as an example.

1.5 million downloads on the first day.
