So.......... Let's go back a little bit.

Remember when Sony denied EA Access? Why are every single EA game being sold 2x more on the PS4?

..... Which leads me to believe that Sony really doesn't need EA Access if evidence shows people are actually buying these games.

Yeah man. Microsoft is trying really really hard to outdo them in terms of everything - sales, popularity, i.e. critical/commercial success.

xbone got Ps4 one week last month and there's NOTHING for christmas coming out on Ps4 that can compete with halo.

halo is the 3rd or 4th most iconic video game franchise of all time behind mario and pokemon and maybe zelda. the halo collection
(which, by the way, lemme get into a rant real quick about remastered games... every time there is a new gen console out, are they always gonna keep doing like remasters? we had the halo 1 anniversary come out last gen and it was supposed to be a big deal. and now they have that re-remastered for the xbone along with the other 3 halos. so when we have our Xbox 2, is there gonna be like a 4K halo anniversary/collection/whatever?

and that's a thing with Ps4 games too - gow, jak n dax, beyond two souls, tekken tag tournament.... which is the only one I ever bought. and it's tekken tag remastered hd, the Ps4 is HD not 4K HD, i wanna be able to play that shit on my Ps4 but I CAN'T coz it's a PsTHREE game on a Blu Ray disc. I suppose they could just release it on the P.S Store on Ps4 to download and play it like that but that would mean legitametely paying for it TWICE for the same product... TTTHD for Ps3 and then TTTHD for Ps4 even though it's the exact same game.

It made sense when I got it for Ps3 because at least there there was the HD difference plus it came with a demo for TTT2 and the movie which was Tekken Hybrid, but there would be 0 difference if I were playing the game on Ps4. UNLESS, it's TTTHDONLINE... yeah. That would be sweet and worth paying for again)
will most definitely have the xbone outsell the Ps4 in December and effectly close the gap by a LOT if not completely close it, and then begin overlapping with the Ps4 starting next year. I'm calling it.

Can't even decipher half of that.

Unless EA Access is really making an impact through Digital Sales. I guess we will know more about it when EA has an earnings call.

Aqua has some great posts about what it is Pachter does for a living in the other thread. I consider checking them out.

Spoilers: this isn't actually his job

Then he should seriously consider keeping mum on the matter from here on out because it seems like he has less knowledge about how the gaming industry runs then some folk here on GAF.

yes I said that, you was banned for trolling in the past and you said I was wrong. So which is it ?

You are renowned for it, you can't help yourself. You are no better than the people you are pin pointing at in this thread.

"I can't help myself?" Give me a break, I turned my ways around. If I haven't, I would've stayed banned. This is a gaming forum. I don't care what you or anyone else thinks about me.

And let me just give you a fair warning: Be careful who you judge. Because one day, somebody's going to look back at what you wrote, & it's going to come back on you.

According to /r/xboxone we're all a bunch of mean-spirited children and Sony fanboys - thanks to this thread. That subreddit is difficult to even browse sometimes.

Folks, read the OP before posting, this has derailed the thread long enough and we'll be cracking down on members who can't bother. Consider this fair warning.

It should be added in text.

I couldn't care less about the sales order, so I didn't pay attention to it.

However, going back to the OP, I can barely read the tiny small print that points out bundled hardware on my phone.

I'd say it's an easy miss for those trying to see console order. Especially on mobile.

Probably best to take it to PMs.

Think we would need stats of EA Access game sales to make statements like this as fact. But either way, EA games are still going to continue on doing well on the PS4. The userbase is too big and many people don't own two same gen consoles.

Pay no attention to the username behind the poster...
Poster who has named himself after some kind of grim reaper casually mentions he's beginning to stalk people who share a common interest with him, and is then surprised to find out one of his assumptions is incorrect in relation to the location of some innocent.

I'm just saying.

We have 3DS numbers in OP and can determine close to Wii U numbers as shown in OP but otherwise not yet

Speaking of, we have a minimum 3DS number ("more than 140K") and then a % increase over August. The % increase leads to 141K, so that's what I plan on using for predictions unless something better comes up. On Wii U, we have "almost 50%" increase. 40% would be ~83K and 50% would be ~89K. Therefore, planning on going with 85K for predictions, again, unless something better comes up. :)

Cheers, tears, celebration, denial, salt, anger, & flat out batshit craziness. So much icing on this bizarre cake the sugar rush is turning into a blissful headache.

Lord All Mighty high up on His throne! This thread has delivered!
