Why release a demo for a game 10 months after it releases?
It’d be cool if game trials were a thing again
Why do some people act like the advent of a next gen console mean there’s no point in buying a current gen console?
PS1 sold 50 million by March 1999 in the midst of ongoing hype for upcoming 6th gen consoles yet still sold 50+ million more for the rest of its lifecycle.
PS2 sold 100 million by Nov 2005 in the midst of ongoing hype for upcoming 7th gen consoles yet still sold 50+ million more for the rest of its lifecycle.
PS3 sold 70...
MGSV for certain
What kind of question is that? A console doesn’t just lose its value just because its successor is about to release

“Besides Death Stranding, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Resident Evil 2, 2019 has been a poor year for major video game releases on PlayStation 4.”
Yeah if we ignore Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers, Monster Hunter: World Icebourne, Kingdom Hearts 3, Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled, Borderlands 3, Apex Legends, Devil May Cry 5, Dragon Quest Builders 2, The Outer Worlds, MLB: The Show 19, Bloodstained, Mortal Kombat 11, Control, Samurai Showdown, Call of Duty: Modern Warfa...
I just hope they eventually rerelease a previous month’s content so that people who missed getting something the first time can get it again
It’d be awesome if sometime in the future Nintendo rereleased SSBU with all the DLC included like a lot of other fighters do
Of course, I’m just pointing out the individual stats
Here’s something huge that people should also consider
Nintendo consoles have sold 322.54 million
Nintendo handhelds have sold 429.67 million
Sony consoles have sold 447.6 million
As if one game could really discourage developers from making remakes from a particular platform
No crap. Care to state other obvious things?
That doesn’t mean they’re in the hands of consumers at the date this was reported
It’s tiring having to repeat myself
The fact you keep repeating the obvious means you don’t get it. Obviously Sony will sell the surplus of PS4 units at retail, but that will be at a later date. I’m not taking about a later date though, I’m talking about the amount of sell-through from the time this financial report was recorded.
Since when did I ever say PS4 wasn’t doing well?
Idk why I have to keep repeating this.
Obviously that 102.8 million will be sold in time. I never said it wasn’t, that was never in question. I said that 102.8 million consoles aren’t in the hands of consumers.
I state that there’s a difference between sold and shipped numbers because there is. Shipped amounts are gauged by sold amounts, but they’re not interchangeable numbers or terminology.
Idk what’s wrong with stating the obvious.
- When Microsoft claimed Xbox One shippe...
“I occasionally see this notion in hardcore gaming communities that PlayStation is merely a lucky brand; it’s argued, for example, that if Microsoft hadn’t messed up with the Xbox One launch, then the PS4 wouldn’t have been anywhere near as popular.”
I’d like to meet the people who actually have this misguided mindset.
“It often gets ignored in the American-centric media, but PlayStation’s ability to establish itself in regions such as the Middle East and...
Why are you making it seem like I’m saying shipping units are pointless?
Idk how you can say stating the basic fact that shipped and sold aren’t the same amount is downplaying success.
How does saying shipped and sold aren’t the same amount automatically mean to you that I’m somehow saying shipped numbers are meaningless?
I’ll wait on how you somehow came to that ridiculous conclusion
@ kay
You know in Sony’s reports they still classify shipped and sold as two distinct totals right?
At the beginning of 2019 Sony even reported that 94.2 million PS4s were shipped while stating it sold 91.6 million units in the same timeframe.
@ Jon
Sony previously reported that PS4 shipped over 100 million in July. Sony is reporting that they just sold over that moment recently by September.
@ rain...
@ Knush
Shipped isn sold. If you think they’re the same you must believe 2017 is not the year Sony sold over 20 million PS4 units
I have a feeling people will misconstrue 102.8 million shipped as 102.8 million sold.
“ A total of 2.8 million PlayStation 4s were shipped during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, which is down 1.1 million from the 3.9 million shipped during the same period the previous fiscal year.
Sony also altered its previous forecast that it will sell 15 million PlayStation 4s in fiscal year 2019, which runs from April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020, to 13.5 million...
Since when was Age of Empires an Xbox franchise?
