Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

20M games sold? I thought ps4 had no games!

 

[Iacobellis]

To Sony: The Last of Us bundle to keep the momentum.

Price it at $400 and also include a month of Plus to boost subscription numbers and give newcomers more free games.

 

[Celestial Mortal]

Holy....wow.

Slow down Sony, FFXV ain't ready yet and you're already closing on to 10mil units....

Spoiler

reference to the GAF thread about FFXV release date in accordance to the install base.

Now there's some context. Do you happen to have the Wii numbers?

 

[Acquiescence]

Terrific console? ...... o_o

Uhhh, yeah. For a console with such a short life cycle, it sure did deliver the goods.

 

[jayu26]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

Guess again mate.

 

[bananas]

not related but...interesting. people are buying ps4 games!

That's not surprising considering PS4 games actually came out in March.

 

[Jburton]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

Nowhere near it, be lucky to be 5 million.

 

[Gator86]

and it's even supply-constrained for 4 of those 5 months. damn.

ps4 with vr and psnow. they freaking planned for this gen.

And they have a VR solution in the oven. This is Sony's game to lose to a ridiculous extent. I'm ready for this. PS2 gen was amazing.

 

[TheCloser]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

Try 4-4.3

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

This is good to hear, because I'm the only one in my circle of friends who got a PS4. The other 4 of them bought XBones...

How is it down in New Zealand atm?

 

[BlazingDarkness]

20M games sold? I thought ps4 had no games!

The software is easily the least appealing thing about the PS4 right now.
But that just goes to show the thing can sell even with a limited library.

 

[BlackBuzzard]

not related but...interesting. people are buying ps4 games!

Dat Infamous:SS.

 

[Majmun]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

Not even close, lol

It's around 2,2mln in NA alone, I think. And that's basically the only territory where it was doing well the last couple of months...

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Well done Sony. Devs please stop making cross gen games.

I'd imagine Xbox One is closer to the Wii U at 4 months than the PS4.

 

[Canis lupus]

Nice! I guess we'll be seeing 8.0 million sold announcement on E3.

More like 9m if they keep this pace.

 

[CorrisD]

That's pretty great news, good for Sony, after the somewhat of a disaster that the PS3 had, to then turn it around and then mostly sort out the issues it had with the PS4, they must be happy. I'm sure the NPD numbers will be a fun topic tomorrow, will be interesting to see that if Sony are second in sales how much of that million were made outside of the US.

I imagine this is one of the news items people on twitter were talking about in regards to stuff coming out this week.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

I'm not even sure it's officially hit 4 million.

 

[Colly_M_]

Great work from Sony, can we have a Wipe-Out game please its all we ask?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Oh, what are the Xbox One numbers, I'm guessing 6 Million?

4.4 million (shipped)

 

[outunderthestars]

Well done Sony. Devs please stop making cross gen games.

So much this. That said, I can't imagine there are many games in early development that are cross gen. This time next year a cross gen title should be a rarity outside of indie.

 

[5amshift]

God damn, what a year! Hope the hype and numbers can go strong through E3. I want to hear them announce over 10 million sold during the press conference.

 

[dreamer3kx]

Hope Sony doesnt get cocky here, they accomplished this by listening.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Damn and I haven't even bought one yet.

Same here. Looks like 10 million plus by the end of the year wouldn't be surprised if it hit 15.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Xbone definitely won NPD.

Not surprised though. TitanFall coupled with price slashing after price slashing.

 

[MisterXDTV]

4.4 million (shipped)

Sold under 4M (???)

 

[gigantor21]

Price it at $400 and also include a month of Plus to boost subscription numbers and give newcomers more free games.

I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but I don't know if they're making enough money from the hardware for that yet. Plus it's not like the PS4 needs the help.

I don't expect to see such bundles until the holiday season.

 

[anexanhume]

Infamous alone (1M/7M) grew the attach rate by 0.14

 

[Curufinwe]

4.4 million (shipped)

Link, please.

 

[Alchemist]

Nothing stops this train.

Devs, you can stop making cross gen games now.

 

[Maligna]

How is it down in New Zealand atm?

I still don't under stand this.

Also, Xbox... hope this is working for you, cuz damn...

 

[Celestial Mortal]

Nothing stops this train.

Devs, you can stop making cross gen games now.

Snipped

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

I still don't under stand this.

Also, Xbox... desperate much?

Apparently the PS4 is selling like crap in NZ

 

[ocean]

Don't read too much into this.

I don't know why this article has been flamed so hard. It actually makes a pretty solid argument. PS4 might (and probably will) wind up being a runaway success, but first-day sales figures are a very poor indicator of future performance.

Having sustained this pace for the past 5 months, on the other hand, does paint a very bright picture for this console's future.

 

[Majmun]

I wonder how long Activision's CoD agreement with MS will last at this rate...

 

[EmptySpace]

Hope Sony doesnt get cocky here, they accomplished this by listening.

so far they've adapted the next generation corporate thinking. they've loosened their ties around their necks and i think it's even more comfortable for the execs now more than ever.

it's not like they only listened to their customers. i feel like the openness and communication within their playstation division opened up and that's why they're having success now. it's good that they realised this sooner rather than later.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

 

[leadbelly]

The software is easily the least appealing thing about the PS4 right now.
But that just goes to show the thing can sell even with a limited library.

Just makes you wonder what the thing will sell when it actually has some games.

 

[SnakeEyes]

Apparently the PS4 is selling like crap in NZ

Don't believe okonnomiyaki.

PS4 is selling, Xbone is collecting dust.

Spoiler

This is just a claim, and not based on any sales figures

 

[Maligna]

Apparently the PS4 is selling like crap in NZ

Ah, okay. Wonder why that is?

 

[213372bu]

Snip

For your own good. edit that quick.. .

OT: What timeframe can we see for VR on PS4? Will it be up and running in two years?

 

[TheGreenGenetleman]

Jesus Christ in Jeans!

 

[Pathos]

Goddamn, grats to Sony. Straight ripping it lol.

 

[Coolwhip]

Nothing stops this train.

Devs, you can stop making cross gen games now.

150 million against 11 ish? Why would they do that?

Damn! In the same time period (4 months) PS4 already doubled Wii U numbers

 

[sublimit]

Very impressive for a relatively dry period.I can't even imagine the sales once the big hits start coming out.

 

[PeregrinSe7en]

Xbone definitely won NPD.

Not surprised though. TitanFall coupled with price slashing after price slashing.

we'll see about that.
