hmm, considering the US is around 400 million people and PS4 is sitting around 10 million here, they're almost as many gamers over there percentage wise as the US, the country with the most gaming consumers. Honestly would never have thought that. Good job GCC! happy to share one of my favorite hobbies with you.
@ NEO,
I hope so, but even during their strongest time, Sony still outsells them worldwide same as during Sony's slowest time. It's an uphill battle.
All that said, not much love being shown to the Wii U. a shame as it's a nice console. to this day I still say if someone only has enough money for two consoles, I strongly suggest the Wii U be one of them. It'll complement your other choice much better than those two do each other. PS4 and X1, for a...
I honestly expected the holiday bump last year to show X1 selling more than PS4. I figured for that particular snapshot (holiday season) NA and UK sales could over come the rest of the world. But according to that PS4 sold around 6 million during that time and X1 around 4.
I'm primarily a playstation gamer and I'm happy to see the PS4 selling so well as it means better support for my preferred platform. But on the flip side I don't like any company having domination l...
I really liked the first game. Wish this had stayed single player as I'm not really a multiplayer kind of gamer.
But oh well, as long others enjoy it.
Well we created our own monster as far as stuff like that goes. We want our games bigger, better, prettier, etc. but also want the price tag to never move from $60.
I know no one likes hearing this, but we pay too little for games. especially when many of us wait for sales before picking something up. (this is facilitated by things like PS+ and GWG always leaving us with something to play to hold us over).
With them taking home the same amount of money with more labor a...

Just a stroll towards the cable cars that take the characters to the mountain. I think there's two collectibles along the path. Didn't really amount to anything.
Apart from MMO titles and spin offs, the 13 games are the only ones I avoided in final fantasy. granted if X tried another title I would have avoided, but still, 13 takes the cake for almost killing my interest in a series I love.
Thankfully type 0 with 15 coming leaves me with optimism.
Batosai!
PS3 store often crashes and causes the system reboot. so if this fixes that, I'm all for it.
You the same insipidghost that wrote the "why I left xbox and then came back" piece? if so, great job man. almost exactly my experience. Wish you had the option to teach this guy a thing or two about how to write up a good column.
same here. I got mine and I thought it was nifty. A nice little sum up of my gaming year.
There's a link to another story in the article titled why I left xbox and then came back. It's funny it's almost exactly my experience.
Agreed. they seem to be at their best when they're hungry and itching for the top spot.
I missed witcher 2 on GWG a few months back, but I already had a physical copy at the time anyway. But for $5? yeah, I'm getting it again.
Well context matters. You're talking about a Wii U game releasing a flagship exclusive title. and comparing it to a multiplatform game and assuming everyone on those units sold belongs to one individual. I own all three consoles and am planning on buying a steam machine next year, I'll only buy one copy of that game. and there are a significant number of people that own both next gen consoles, a PC or some combination of two. Not to mention the people that buy those platforms spe...
I second this comment.
*stamps approval*
Not at all.
For me, hands down the best soundtrack so far this year in gaming.
Sure rapture and witcher and such are awesome, but for my money, life is strange is on a whole other level when it comes to music.
I had to laugh when he said Xbox was the console to beat. It's funny cause it's been getting beat.
I like the "well enough" approach myself. As long the consoles sell well enough to keep getting great support from third parties, and well enough to keep the industry away from turning into mobile centric, and well enough to compete with each other (which ensures better exclusives, features and such) then I'm happy.
As for who's on top, I don't care too much, just want them selling so well and so close to each other that they continue pumping out awesome content...
