Yeah! That´s why their Mega Hit called Quatum Break flopped hard (financially and game itself) even though this Greenberg guy once said :

"The pre-order sales had exceeded their expectation, and the title has the potential to become a massive success ; ... >>>best-selling original property released by Microsoft<<< since the release of Xbox One, outselling games like Sunset Overdrive, Ori and the Blind Forest and Ryse: Son of Rome.

Digital Foundry at it again ... DF aehm see img

Forza is the King of Racers? Why is it selling like shaite then?

Since 2005 (11 years), there have been 10 or 11 games ..., 5 years after the first FM they reached 10 mill. sold units and sold since then another 10 mill. or so (total 20 million copies). Nobody gives a damn, its not well recieved among pro Drivers, there has been never anything like the Academy or the FiA Joint-Venture .. it´s just there.

They YET have to create a fantasy race track ...

Especially now with "Play Anywhere" ... i see no reason to get an XB1s. I don´t buy any discs anymore, so that UHD 4K BD is worthless to me (the only reason i can see for some folks out there). I´ve played and dropped too much $$$ on former XB1 exclusives on the PC and so far, not one has impressed me.

Among those that i´ve played FMH3 and Ryse were prolly the best offerings, QB, Gearsofwar4 were huge letdowns (if i only had done some research, prio...

PART 2

Using this data, makes the PC market in USA (2016) 9.2 mill. big versus the 9.4 PS4 and 8.5mill XB1 gamers, add PS360/3DS/Vita/WiiU ... and you will notice that nothing has changed. There are waaaay more ppl. playing on consoles/handheld than on the PC per each country. (USA 2016 10mill PC gamers vs 24mill. (excl. vita/3ds/PS360) console gamers) or way more ppl. on console ready to drop $60 for a new game.

So how come, no PC title for full price on Day...

Sorry big "rant" incoming; TL:DR at bottom

if the PC was really dominating, GTA5 would have sold over 6mill. times on the PC alone, but they didnt. They shipped 70 mill. copies, sold approx. 15 to 20mill. on each Gen 7 platform. Ubisoft makes more $$$ with Console games than PC ... so how come?

$32bill. according to Newzoo, of which 27% come from PC/MMO Games, except for Minecraft nothing has sold on the PC past 6mill. times (besides GTA5 since ...

According to uncle google USA, Sony sold close to 9.5mill. PS4 vs the 8.5mill. XB1. Using this data :

100% "total US gamers, based on this info" ~19.1mill
78% "gamers" on mobile ~15mill.
49% on PS4 ~9.4mill. sold units/players
48% on PC ~9.2mill. players
44% on XB1 sold units/players 8.5mill.
23% on Wii U sold units/players ~4.5mill
excl. PS360
===========
242% ... too many play on ...

NewMonday ... dont worry, aint the first time Microsoft is stealing something and "rebrands" it (IBM while working with Sony/Toshiba on CELL (a 0.4$ bill. deal 2003-2006) ... showed M$ the blueprints of the upcoming CELL chip for their 360 "be built around the core that IBM was still building with Sony")

And few days...

No shit Sherlock :P

It better be! for a console coming next Winter 2017/2018.

I´ve made this console - world map (2015), need more data from Latin America, Afrika, India/East Asia and Russia (all i could find is, an article from 2011 about 75% being pirates) for a more accurate depiction.

Thanks.

"While we tried to recreate the PS4 Pro environment as faithfully as we could, we want to reiterate that our experiment isn’t likely to be precisely indicative of the PS4 Pro’s true performance."

PS4 Pro for $399 and close to true 4k reso. (checkerboard rendering)

versus

A pc for $630 bucks and without any OS or any input controller your pc is worth shaite. Real cost would be around $700 to 750. Come back with a full fledged p...

Sony also said, that they had no interest in another PS360 like 8 year cycle. Developers and publishers were against it and to emphasize it a bit : Sony said too that PS4 Pro would not "extend" their initial PS4 schedule plan/goal

5 years (2018, unlikely)
6 years (2019 feasible if apus by then make a jump worthwhile, 6TL Scorpio so PS5 should have twice or even more than that for 4k 60fps + 5 years)
7 years MAX (2020)

2018 see...

Assuming that UHD Players dont require a different layer to playback UHD discs, the fat PS4 should be able to playback them already as HDMI1.4a can output 4K30Hz (enough for 24fps and 29.976fps movies) and with the Slim and Pro HDMI2.0 supports up to 60Hz at 4K. Has anyone tried to playback UHD in the fat PS4?

Next week with the launch of the SLIM and most likely 4.00 this might change for better or worse (resp. nothing at all).

Here is the archive link of the forbes article / site

You must be very young ... else you would not claim such thing. You must have forgotten that ... the fat XB1 from 2001, the first box ... had up to 800 games or so. Out of those 800 close to 40% were exclusives, from Shenmue 2, Morrowind and so on ... (check wiki)

Then during 360 and XB1 the new XB1 from 2013 not 2001 ... /doh
GTA4 dlc 1 year delay
The Rise of Tomb Raider 1 year deal/delay ... ; You know why they´re doing that, right?

It was free for a long time on PS2 and PS3 / PSP / Vita ... but then Sony saw how M$ was milking the same cow, and ... well you know how the story ends. Ain´t no happy end ..

To be fair though, i don´t see any reason on paying for online as there´s prolly only one game so far and maybe with GT Sport that are worth the fee (the other being Bloodborne). What else on PS4 need to be played online .. maybe the next Battlefield, so about 3 games for me.
...

Thankfully i still own a pair of old school red/green/cyan 3D Goggles. Soooooooo much grey, only pictures from the past have more "greytones". 100 or more millions "spent" or "given" and so far all they have shown, were some ships, some actor CGi and the interiors of ship or stations that all look alike.

Maybe once its out, its actually good.. but so far /shrug

Copy&Paste Own Comment/Reply from above:

Sony is making around $70+ billions annually, of which close to 15 come from PlayStation (~21%). Microsoft makes about 90+ billions annually, of which $10.18 come from the Gaming and Computing Division (~11%). We don´t have any real Xbox only data (without the Computing part like Surface/W10 etc.) only MAUS.

Sony since 2008
