Thank you. That is ALL I wanted to see.
I have to admit that is extremely surprising. I would have expected the Xbox 360 to have been the dominant platform by a significant margin honestly.

I'm not sure if it's the same person on different accounts or what, but I could swear I see the exact same kind of post reguarly (down to the mandatory "I'm not biased, I own every console") and it's how the "PS4 has no Game" meme started...
In all seriousness though:
less games? no
less exclusives? no
I will refer you to www.listwar.com for all your list needs.

Based on past precedent, I'm inclined to believe Sony may drop the price towards the end of the year but I also think they might wait until Morpheus is ready.
Project cars devs said it supports Morpheus so maybe a bundle is in the works.

I have never seen hype that has lasted almost 1.5 years, though that's not even the main problem of your comment. The PS4 does not have less games nor have less exclusives. The reason why it's selling so well is because its library appeals to a wide variety of gamers.
March NPD. I can't find January's

Such fucking nonsense.
He's literally a nobody.
He had an account here for a week, Maybe? Contributed a few posts consisting entirely of hot garbage and got banned as a junior.
He's made a full-time job out of tweeting to Xbox PR accounts, minus actually getting paid.
He's the physical manifestation of internet fandom.

The "PS4 has no games" thing should be bannable at this point, it's not even logical at this point or even makes a lick of sense.

There was a flood of that coming from PC players
Which is pretty much where that sentiment comes from.
Because its the best platform. People don't buy the console with the most exclusives. That would just be silly.

The way I've always read the 'nogaemz' nonsense is basically this :
"PS4's line-up, compared to "insert competitor" in "insert time period" is either "less in quantity/quality" or "doesn't counter that big game that competitor has, so it sucks."
Which is bullshit, imo.

It is BS that's the point...it is trolling imo.

As a PC player I resent that comment. We have no need to mock PS4, an if I want to attack consoles "no games" is the last insult I would use. It is purely Microsoft customers who make such comments.

Here's what I have. On launch, the X1 version did about 1246k and the PS4 version did 1160k. Afterwards, the X1 version was above the PS4 version in NPD for December, January, February but the PS4 version was on top for March. I don't have exact numbers for these months unfortunately.
UK numbers, you have the link there. After launch, some weeks the XB1 version was ahead, others the PS4 but not by much of a difference.
In Japan, the PS4 version sold about ~120k if my totals are correct.
Given that everything else outside US/UK is firmly PS4 dominated territory, I think it's pretty good assumption that the PS4 version outsold the X1 version or at the very least, that the two are extremely close.

Its just anecdotal man. Not personally directed at you
Plenty of PC players have posted here with the same reasoning. Consoles have "no games" if there aren't enough compelling exclusives to warrant their purchase
Otherwise your needs are completely filled on a Gaming PC
Sorry if I wasnt clear

Almost all? No not true.
COD and BF appeal to the same demographic and BF sold more on XB1 in the US. But WW PS4 has a significant lead.

It amazes me how the PS4 continues to to sell better than The One, despite the PS4's shoddy build quality, low-quality controller, horrible online and lack of games.
I guess people fall for peer pressure, and base their purchasing decisions off of what their friends are doing, instead of going for the highest quality. Just like how people choose to drink Coors or Bud Light over a quality beer like Heineken.

Sorry the bolded ruins your entire argument since you mentioned Heineken and quality in the same sentence.
Care to provide some examples? Or are you just salty.

I don't understand how people consider Yuengling a quality beer, both that and Heineken taste like diluted piss water. Corona in a glass bottle, now that's living. Still piss water, but somewhat less so.
Didn't think a mod would fall for the bait
Learn to quote Kagari! <3 you
edit: darn you fixed it, you foiled me this time!
Oh man, I think we just became best friends due to Corona.

7.8/10 - Too much Heineken
This was a fun post.
All you people talking about Corona or Yeungling need to actually drink beer instead of sticking with the piss water.
Go out and find (I don't care how long it takes) a bottle of Innis & Gunn. You'll thank me later.

seems about right
i dont know the full details of the last agreement so im assuming it was similar.
"The agreement which began in 2009 now extends for all add ons and map packs from the mega-blockbuster Call of Duty(R) franchise through 2012"
a similar deal was made during 2012 e3 which was announced during micrsofts e3 press conference. which probably spanned to only early 2015. which would mean contract negotiations with compaines would occur right now for activision. this doesnt only include sony but would probably include negotiations with MLGtv
Actually that sentiment almost always comes from xbox players because you usually see a comment that the xbox has much better exclusives in the same post.
The sentiment from PC players is "lol you guys are arguing about 180ps when you're missing 30fps? 4k birches! "
P. S. It's obvious PS4 has no games because we're resorting to beer talk.

This thread - and others - inspired me to write something about exclusives, and how I think Sony's actually got the right business strategy when it comes to moving its titles out of the holiday release window. Hopefully some of you get something out of it - even if you disagree:

I know! You're a false prophet! I believed in all those teases you were giving but the truth is Sony just has nothing. I've lost my faith in you.
Your mistake was believing in me. I hope you've learned now Jomjom.

Bloodborne is co-made & owned by Sony, unlike the other 3rd party stuff.

But did they even do one for the PS3?

Salty member ends post with quality beer like Heineken.
EDIT: can't tell if trolling or not now that I reread it. Seriously though.. Heineken?
Heineken was to drive home that it was a joke post.

This. I believe the general overlooking of Persona 5 is laughable on these types of post, but just my opinion. Also those stating "wait after E3" were my initial thought from seeing the topic.
I get the concern (or the temptation to compare MS vs. Sony), but really we won't get an idea for both platforms until after E3 (maybe Gamescom and to a less extent TGS) on their true Holiday line-up.
As a sony fan, and owning all big three consoles, I'm just hoping there aren't too many delays for the cross-platform games.

As somebody who liks Yeungling, Heineken, Bud Light and Coors Light I'm feeling pretty insecure about my beer pallete.
My favorite is Blue Moon. Does that redeem me?

I would be happy if Sony introduces a "dualshock 4 pro" controller which has a beefier battery life, better plastics and better sticks with a swappable front plate. Maybe some back buttons (a la Scuf, cinch) for all these 3rd party marketing deals with 1st person shooters =P
Make it so on the E3 stage Sony.

I'm betting Sony has some stuff in the can for E3. It's Playstation's 20th anniversary in the US, so it's a big year for them to roll out some cool games. Bloodborne's success should help send a message that we want more great exclusives, and that hopefully the loud vocal weirdos who can't read in the first place that are more interested in marketing schedules than video games won't have a say in the matter. Ideally, they should be permanently banned from the internet, but that's just my ideal world.

Can! Like a Heineken's Can!
I hope Sony have some decent third party exclusive lagers lined up for this year's Christingle, because their first party stuff is minging.
