I agree with Souls games are unforgiving...I love how they force the gamer to be strategic.
I'm sure Horizon will do just fine if you don't buy it right away
Your wallet is gonna sue you
Let me reply by using your own "Playground Games new IP will be exclusive to Microsoft" argument:
"Well, Activision has a good relationship with Sony so it makes sense that the new Crash game is exclusive to Sony"
If @TheColbertinator's comment is to be believed ("Got my copy early too. I dont have a PS4 though so I just tossed it." ), then GG thanks you for the free money

@ImGumbyDammit
Your math is accurate but your premise is wrong. Ubisoft & all other 3rd party publishers don't care about software sales per capita of each console's population. Publishers care about overall software sales on each console.
Furthermore, the math in your comment is only relevant if we assume all console owners like the same games. And we know that's not the case. So some games will have a closer margin & others will...
Well PS4 has won every NPD since PS4 Pro released...just saying
Gotta love the Xbox PR
Remedy had close ties to Xbox and the 2 new IP they're working on will not be tied to Microsoft (source: https://www.videogamer.com/... )...So close ties doesn't necessarily mean much.
I love this line: "The gap in time means that if Horizon Zero Dawn is not a huge success, as many anticipate, many gamers will be given the excuse to focus playing games on other consoles instead."...The "other consoles" he's referring to have to be the Switch right. I don't know of any other console that has any other games that can't be played on PS4 "between the release of Horizon Zero Dawn and the release of the other anticipated PS4 exclusive games, ...
@timotim -- "Was never a game that was going to appeal to a wide audience." -- That is completely irrelevant to a price cut 2 months after its release
@LikeAGlove
"ms putting their games on xbox and pc is EXACTLY the same as sony putting their games on pspro and ps4" -- WRONG...Microsoft hardware is not needed to play Microsoft software
"its just that the beast scorpio has everyones attention because it is just beastly compared to any consoles before it" -- TRUE...Every console Microsoft & Sony puts out will be more "beastly" than the other's from now on. Scorpio w...
I know right. The idea that this year's MLB might be completely different than what you might have expected...is kinda funny
If you don't like the previous Show games then your probably not going to like this. If you do like the previous Show games then you'll probably like this
Well then its a good thing that Sony thought about getting the game out to the fans more than they thought about how much money they would or wouldn't make
@Hendog1981 "In 2013 it was over 46 million subs"
You do realize you can have an Xbox Live subscription without having a GOLD (paying) subscription, right?
If you want to compare the number of non-paying people with PSN or XBL accounts, then your right, in 2013 Xbox had over 46 million total people (paying & non-paying accounts) with XBL...But in 2013, PSN had over 110 million similar accounts (source: 3327d ago 9 agree3 disagreeView comment
Question: "Which video game giant will have the most successful 2017?"
Answer: The same video game giant that had the most successful 2014, 2015 & 2016. And that would be PS4. The train this generation don't stop
@BizzaroUltraman & @Overload
Microsoft was into sales #'s this time last year. Remember they said, "Every title in our exclusive 2015 holiday games line-up – Halo 5: Guardians, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Forza Motorsport 6 and Gears of War: Ultimate Edition – sold over 1 million units" (source: http://news.xbox.com/2016/0... - paragraph 2, sentence 3)

@MasterCornholio & @Overload
People absolutely say that. But a lot of people use that EXCUSE because they know Microsoft wont come out with digital sales. Those are the type of people who want to take the debate away from the quantifiable & move it to the un-quantifiable (in an effort to not be verifiably proven wrong)
Whats really funny is watching the Sony Haters try & move the goal posts now...
1st it was: PS4 Slim (and later PS4 Pro) FLOPPED!!!
Now the very same people: I thought PS4 Pro & Slim would sell better than they did
[All in an effort to make any PS4 results look bad]
comparing Horizon to a Souls game is ridiculous b/c the difficulty settings can be changed in Horizon. Souls games are Souls games b/c the difficulty setting can't be changed & thus, unforgiving
