Congrats to Sony on having a console that can play all of the UK's Top 10 best selling games of 2017.

@TheColbertinator - "As long we have the Xbox One X,power is our first priority."

While what you say is true about Xbox one X leading in power (& thus the best versions of multiplat games)...The problem is that Microsoft can't guarantee that they will always have the power advantage at all times.

Sony on the other hand can lean into power when they have that advantage, but can pivot to games when they see that as their advantage.

@cleft5 - "How many hours per day did he spend playing the game? Busy people actually don't have a lot of time like people without jobs or people that just plan on focusing heavily on this game."

I see where your coming from but the guy who I'm quoting is a developer for Insomniac...meaning Spider-Man PS4 is his day job

@shloobmm3 - "How do you know they are fake? I could say It took me a hundred days to beat a game without indicating that for each day I only played 2 minutes."

How do I know they're fake...Well if he was only playing a couple minutes each night then he wouldn't say that he had a "long night ahead of me" when he referenced his multiple play-throughs...

Nice try though

This is going to be great...I love that the developers are completing playthroughs of the game & it seems like a decently long game. I guess the fake rumors about this game being super short can be put to rest

I think BOTW has the edge too...But for me, HZD was more impressive since it was GG's first try at anything outside of a 1st person shooter. Using your NBA reference, HZD getting this many GOTY nominations is like 5 starting rookies on a team getting all the way to the NBA finals.

Yeah both BOTW & HZD top all games with 6 nominations...Both games are great...Both Nintendo & Sony should be proud. I also like how Nier:Automata & Hellblade both got 3 nominations too.

If Xbox did this in 2019...It will end Xbox...Here's why:

If Xbox dropped another console in 2019 PlayStation would paint them into a corner by dropping their next console in 2020. If that happened Xbox would have to deal with 1 of 2 scenarios:

1) Xbox would have to deal with PlayStation having the power for at least 3-4 years (say hello to 2013 all over again)

OR

2) Xbox would have to release ANOTHER console in ...

No way Xbox's next console drops in 2019...They cant drop a $400-$500 console every other year. The consumers would get burnt out, R&D and marketing/advertising expenses would go through the roof. They wouldn't have anything left in the Xbox division budget

@Woolly_ "More figures than any exclusive title will ever see. even on a single_platform." -- 2 things:

1) Exclusives were NEVER meant to sell more than multiplats...Exclusives are meant to be another reason for fence-sitters to pick 1 console over another...(and if you've looked at every NPD in 2017...its working!!!)

2) By you above quote, you must think Phil Spencer creating/buying new studios is a foolish decision then, right???

I love how some in the comment section say: "Sony fans trying to hype a game that no one really knows anything about."...As if Kojima is some no-named developer, who nobody's ever heard of (let alone played any of his content)

(((AND FOR THE RECORD: I'm not saying any and everybody has to like Kojima's work, I'm just saying...Use some rational logic & understand that others may like/love his previous content & trust Kojima to deliver this ...

@The Han - "Sony fans trying to hype a game that no one really knows anything about. Sony Fan logic for yea"

2 Things which prove the logic in this comment is ridiculous:
1) Kojima has a LONG history of known content...(you may not like it, but other people may love & trust his work)
2) Sony fans trying to hype this game is no worse than Xbox fans trying to hype a new Fable (a game that isn't even known to be real)

@The Han - "Sony fans trying to hype a game that no one really knows anything about. Sony Fan logic for yea"

Yeah...why would Sony fans hype a game from some no-name developer like Kojima...Its not like those fans know what kind of games he makes

(smh)

Its not about be intolerant of other gamers...

Its about people not facing the fact that: The 1st 10 months of Xbox's 2017 (with the exception of Cuphead) was spent hyping up the last 2 months of 2017.

70 Million PS4s sold is great...BUT WHATS MORE IMPRESSIVE IS ATTACH RATE:

ATTACH RATE went from 8.07 (487.8M games divided by 60.4M consoles) in June 2017 - http://www.sie.com/en/corpo...

to

ATTACH RATE of 8.75 (617.8M games divided by 70.6M consoles) in Dec 2017 -

Yup...Add Dayz Gone, Detroit & MLB release dates...and I'll be GOOD for quite a while!!!

@SourtreeDing

PS4 dont need games???

I'm a huge PS4 dude (just look at my previous comments)...But I hate when Console A gets a game & Console B's fans say "[Console B's fans] don't want it" or "[Console B] doesn't need it"...As PS4 gamers we should want as many games as possible on our preferred platform.

@feju - "LOL @ playing monthly sales stats"

More console sales...increases likelihood of more software sales
More software sales...increase likelihood of more sequels (and more games in general)

In other words. this is the reason why Xbox's AAA new IP (Ryse, Sunset Overdrive & Quantum Break) are less likely to get sequels than PS4's AAA new IP.

This is also the reason that Xbox probably isn't getting s...
