I'm having a hard time believing GT did only a million too, especially as driveclub did 2 million and they got canned. LolSport, 1 million? Naaaaaah...
Plus the list seems to be missing loads of games like all actual highest games GTA/cod etc

So the games that are out within the next 6 to 9 months have little to no engagement and we can start getting excited for the ps5 in a minimum of 12 to 18 months.
Covid is a bitch.

I'm sad to see how most playstation fans don't care about gran turismo franchise anymore
I remember back in the ps1 days all my friends in school were obsessed with the game back then and even in the ps2 days
I hope gta 7 will return the series to its glory days

Playstation is doomed guys. Sony needs a Gamepass equivalent ASAP and no japanese AA developer is going to support it anymore cause Japan sales. Oh and #FireJimRyan.
Those aren't official number just estimated like vgchartz.GT Sport may have sold over 8 million...
Gran Turismo Sport Has Sold an Estimated 8 Million Copies
A recent report from a hedge fund has suggested a new sales figure for Polyphony Digital's Gran Turismo Sport. It's a big one too, with the copy total coming in at an estimated 8 million. That headline figure comes about midway through a massive 102-page document called "A Stronger Sony". In it,www.gtplanet.net

GT Sport has over 9 million users as of February. 1 million is impossible.I'm having a hard time believing GT did only a million too, especially as driveclub did 2 million and they got canned. Lol

Well....by the numbers alone, MOST PS fans never cared about GT, no GT has EVER moved 100 million units.....
You also need to factor that GT Sport is different from the main GT series and will see less sales then the standard GT, I expect GT to move monster units as I'm buying it day 1 for that return of those classic modes and I expect many more will too.
With it being cross gen, its moving some monster numbers if you consider no GT has ever actually done such a thing. I don't know if we'll see those old school PS2 numbers as thats the height of the series, but who knows, maybe a whole new base of consumers pick up GT

Deffo looks like insomniac were purchased to become the marvel machine for Sony. Cant blame them because its business and I'm so excited for wolverine. If they could do another hulk ultimate destruction I'd cream.

Yup. And GT has been in such a weird spot for me. I love racing but I don't pay for online, so I skipped GTS. And GT6 came after I had already jumped in on PS4, and no BC so I skipped that too.
It has been 11 years since the last Gran Turismo for me! So I really don't care about trailer views, as it is GT7 is easily one of the biggest releases on PS5.
I don't even understand the hype for Wolverine to be honest. A brute with claws means they need to absolutely perfect the combat. As said elsewhere they should've chosen Hulk instead, then they can have him jump far for cool traversal, they already have the tech from Spidey, and as Bruce Banner they can add interesting side activities.

Sometimes you have to wonder if people here are serious or not. Manchester United recently bought Ronaldo and just wouldn't shut about twitter interaction numbers about the signing because they know they can get higher sponsorship using this metric. How else are we supposed to gauge consumer response for an online reveal?

I have a feeling that if the color of the trailer had more green and said "GamePass" you'd care way, way more about the views.

That's a bit of a stretch. Look at it more practically; Insomniac have already done Spiderman, so its a no-brainer that they'd be the right choice for a sequel. Similarly as their games have been well received and Marvel seems pleased with the result, pressure could be coming from them to have Insomniac involved on Wolverine too.
I'm sure Sony intend for there to be more Ratchet+Clank also.

I understand that some people like stuff like this for reasons, but just like the weekly UK/Japan sales figures i think there should be a pinned general thread named "interesting statistics" for all of them to avoid flooding the forum with threads. I don't think that too many people are interested in Youtube clicks or sales figures.I have a feeling that if the color of the trailer had more green and said "GamePass" you'd care way, way more about the views.

Benji Sales usually combine views from the largest gaming sites like IGN and Gamespot

Sport feels more like a spin off or a Prologue (oversized demo). It has much less content, no real SP and is heavily online focused.

That's totally dishonest since he doesn't mention that and neither does he indicate which channels are being combined (especially if the combined channels together account for far more views than the PlayStation channel alone). What's even worse is that these combined views often get compared to the Xbox channel alone, since so many people are not aware of this.
So yeah, that's a pretty shady metric right there.

Horizon has had 'little to no engagement'?:
Sure buddy, I'm much more excited about backwards compatibility anyway

GT Sport didn't appeal to me, but I still bought one copy to my nephew.
Now with PS5 and good old campaign GT7, I can just jump into playing a race or two without load times when ever I have time.
Hyped eventhough the trailer was total BS, just because of campaign coming back.

GT probably just doesn't have the same appeal to the showcase audience, maybe? I dunno.
Maybe they just don't think the release date will stick again.

I didn't know February wasn't in the next six to nine months...

The thread is about trailers from the ps showcase but I guess you didnt read that?"So the games that are out within the next 6 to 9 months have little to no engagement"

Let me elaborate on my statement so its clearer based on the thread.
So from the trailers shown at the ps showcase of games launching in the next 6 to 9 months there is very little engagement.

So because Horizon wasn't at the showcase I guess 'we can only start getting excited for the ps5 in a minimum of 12 to 18 months.'
Because Horizon is vapourware and doesn't count right?
Your 'point' is a nonsense, and the fact that you're continuing to argue it just reinforces the stupidity of it.

Horizon is gonna be awesome, I don't get why you're getting so bent out of shape over my statement I made about the viewership of the titles displayed in this showcase.
Horizon will be huge and I'm sure all of us will greatly enjoy it when it launches. Just chill.

You tried to link low engagement to being a reason not to get 'excited' for the PS5.
Yet the very next big PS5 exclusive...is a game with very high engagement.
If I'm having to explain this to you...well I don't know what that says about your ability to comprehend information....

All is well. Chill man, go play some games. I have a ps5 and I'm excited for horizon. I simple said the public don't seem to be as engaged over the trailers for games that are coming next year which were showed at the showcase.

I saw he mention it when tweeting about the Xbox E3 showcase and its trailers, because he did combine those as well.
Edit: actually, you're right. He didn't include them. Yeah that's wierd.

It's quite simple really.
Where do these numbers come from?
He didn't say views on PlayStation channel, but views on YouTube.
For example, check the trailers on IGN's channel.

I'm trying to guess what kind of mental gymnastics people are doing in their head to spin what was a solid showcase with some heavy hitters into some sort of "Sony is doomed" scenario. Especially when you consider what the competition has offered since launch.
Gaf never ceases to amaze me.

So for Xbox he only combined the official and developer channels but for PlayStation he is including every major gaming channel (whatever these may be)?
I know what he said and he is being rather deceptive really. Lots of people in this thread alone thought these were the PlayStation metrics alone.
If I'd combine enough channels without saying which ones I could create any metric I wanted. Also combining views like that is idiotic since there's no way of knowing how much overlap there is between these channels. What's even worse, he seems to be changing his methodology at will, creating even more confusion.

Thing is, guys, Disney are totally buying Sony in the next 5 years, so they can get Spider-Man back.
We'll then be getting films and TV shows based on Sony's gaming franchises:
* Uncharted movie series (soft reboot - ignores the current movie)
* God of War TV series on Disney+
* Horizon Zero Dawn TV series on Disney+
* Gran Turismo movie series (set in the universe of Cars!)
* The Last of Us TV series (the existing series will be labelled "Legends" and archived)
* Killzone teen cartoon series, with mech and space battles and shit like that - renamed to something that doesn't have death linked in the title.
* Infamous TV series - urban fantasy (is actually rather good).
* Ratchet and Clank - children's cartoon series on Disney+, where Clank can't talk and Ratchet makes weird stuff, like Wallace and Gromit.
* Resistance - animated teen sci-fi series about an alien invasion. Has fuck all to do with the games.
* Days Gone would be completely binned off (Sony's done that already, sadly, so ....)
Ellie and Aloy will become Disney Princesses, and Ellie will also no longer be gay (but she won't date boys either).

Or maybe you are overthinking it. Maybe he realised people asked for entire numberlast so this he did it.
