Yeah, Microsoft is playing a different game because they also leverage PC and will of take advantage of mobile. We have games like RE4 being able to run on an iPhone 15 pro is making me think that mobile market might become a player for AAA in the near future. I assume Microsoft is going to make a mobile store to take advantage of that, so it should get interesting.

Mobile gamers not tryna pay AAA console game prices. They gone have to price that shyt very low.

Yeah, they ain’t selling 60 dollar games on phones. Anyone wanting to spend that much money to play games has a console

No it isn’t. Resident Evil 4 sold 4 million World Wide, there is no data for Starfields world wide sales.

You think RE4 only sold less than 500k in the U.S. but sold 3.5+m elsewhere.

And starfield was the best selling game in the U.S. for the month but sold like shyt everywhere else.

The gymnastics you stan’s do is wild

wow this is actually crazy

Bethesda’s first number 1 title on a game that isn’t even multiplat and ona subscribtion service. Yet coli concern trolls who’ve never played the game really formed like voltron and tried their damndest to slander this game at every opportunity and act like it was a failure

You really think if starfield sold 4 million copies in a week microsoft would be quiet about it

and yes, its very possible it sold like shyt in other territories. It dropped off the uk charts in a week and didnt chart anyone else

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Thats how you know Larry’s are full of shyt.


They will act like starfield is a major success for getting a number one spot on the npd for the month but be silent as hell or come up with a million excuses when it comes to forza sales or any other games on xbox not charting.

They already told you it was their most successful game launch.

They told you they had 1 million concurrent players. 10 million total, and 2+ million early access.

Your #Shambles kept you in denial.

Cope brehs

 

[Hitchens]

For it to outsell MK1 and dislodge Madden it sold well.

This does not mean it met or exceeded sales expectations.

They still holding on.

This is what happens when you live in a misinformation buble.

Dudes having trouble reconciling with reality

 

[Fatboi1]

Curious to see the sales next month.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

wow this is actually crazy

This is what happens when you only get part of the information

I agree for the most part, but consumer habits can change. I don't think gamers will move to mobile, but it could become a viable option within 10 years. hypothetically, if Microsoft and Sony created a mobile store and allowed the games to have cross buy functionality with their respective platforms. Then I think it's possible for AAA mobile gaming to kick off, but I don't see this happening this gen

 

[Half A $]

They keep saying they aren’t even trying to sell more consoles than Playstation. I don’t even know why people keep harping on that comparison.

Are you stupid because there's a very obvious reason why they aren't trying to.

Would be like the Browns coming out and saying our offense isn't trying to be as dynamic and explosive as Miami.
