Wasn't Killzone over 2m?
He just mentioned that all Sonys PS4 retail games have sold over a million at least right. Plus Final Fantasy is usually a bigger franchise than these (bar the exception of TLoU, but that was a year old remaster anyways).

For one week.
Thanks to Knack, PS4 has sold over 10 million units.
Thanks to Mario, Wii U has died a slow death.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
Pretty sure both of those games will sell very well and be the most talked about games of the year. Next gen games sales have literally nothing to do with a game that's been in development for 8 years being delayed. There's no correlation at all seriously. FFXV was announced way too far ahead of any of these games for their sales to affect it in anyway shape or form.
Hopefully they do that with Killzone soon. That team was still releasing free multiplayer maps but the community is very small. Might give it a shot in the arm and have an actual playerbase enjoying the free maps.

WWHD did hit 1 million thoughSo a mediocre platformer, terrible shooter, port of a last gen game, and a rehash all managed to sell over 1 million each while gems like The Wonderful 101, Windwaker HD, Ryse, etc. haven't? Damn shame.
I'm not sad and I'm not a children !
On topic : Nice results, all these games are pretty good/awesome !

I see people have a knack for knack
They already gave away 400k in Japan, they're probably done padding the numbers for now.

You were warned, the game never looked good at any point before it launched.
to be a better game it would have to stop being Knack. so, why not make an entirely different (good) game?

I remember enjoying Knack at a demo booth, most likely because it was my first time using a PS4. I will gladly play both it and Shadow Fall once they are PS+ games; I imagine they will be the first retail games to be selected.
Daaaaaamn. Mario got Knacked the fuck out.
It's like he took a break from all that ass whooping for a week, then returned for a lot more.
I think it's safe to say, at this stage, that PS4 owes a large majority of its success to Knack.

Resogun didn't get a million downloads?
I'd assume so given NPD had it between 150-200k. Hard to get to 1m without that 400k.
I enjoyed Knack. It wasn't perfect by a long shot but I could easily see a sequel on the horizon.
Probably not paid ones no.

Knack vs Mario in UK is a utter fascinating Gaf-meme, for so many reasons.

Oh come on now. It's not nearly as bad as you try to make it. Knack is a very good game. I have no regrets buying it at launch. I really hope they release a sequel.

I couldn't agree more.
Knackersfield - 64 horses meet their bloody demise in a huge beautiful pasture at the hands of the new mechanised, dancing (yet strangely sad eyed) employee. Insects continuously cause increased delays, much frustration and discontent.
After a year with little to no improvement our formerly shiny lead finally concedes Turkey Masturbator might have been the better job choice after all.

Great news for keeping people in jobs!
I enjoyed Knack quite a lot. It's a good game, not great, definitely not bad. My son loves it and it seems really popular with the kids, a lot more than I expected especially when we have all the usual WiiU titles in the house as well!

Oh hell, guess I stopped following after Knack dropped off (was still wrong in any case). Those are surprisingly good legs. Thanks for correcting me.

Havent played knack but read it's mediocre.... If i had a kid i woulda definitely got it for them - just not too much kid friendly games on ps4 yet. Esp at launch.
Bought all those except tlou (which I have for ps3)
Dont really understand the hatred for knack.
was it the best game ever? No. but it was still challenging. Good variety in enemies imo.
In a way its the demons souls of 3d brawlers. Challenging, punishing (ok not as bad, but dem checkpoints) and the sole reason u die is because of user error
