Shooters have been kinda weak so far this gen though.

My favorite is still titanfall, everything else is the same old shyt on consoles.

HALO :russell:
Hardline :gag:
Battlefreeze 4 :flabbynsick:
COD :beli:

Maybe SONY needs to bring back MAG @Rekkapryde :russ:

the claim is still baseless, and comes from someone that gets paid to promote their brand
How is it baseless? FPS games are selling more on Ps4 this gen. Just because he is a Sony Rep doesn't make the statement baseless.

If he said more fighting game fans are switching over to Ps4 twould that make it baseless?

If Gabe Newell said more people are playing games on Steam would that statement be baseless?

Baseless means without foundation. There's truth to what's said in the OP. You sound like you just don't want to hear about it :manny:

it's baseless because it's just thrown out there, with no data behind it

Come on. It's not hard to extrapolate:

More fps games sold on PS4
Bigger Ps4 install base.
More third party FPS deals on Ps4.

You can look at player counts for most games and I can bet you there's more people on the Ps4 version.
Bf4
As a matter of fact, BF4 was marketed on Xbox more and had timed DLC and still right now more people are playing on Ps4 version.
Even more than the PC version.


It doesn't need to be spelled out.

TYRONE GA!
a more accurate thread title "gamers are switching to ps4 this gen"

More like gamers (in the US) are coming back to Sony this gen :smugfavre:

this gen was over before it launched.

Told nikkaz then and it's hilarious watching those STILL in denial try to deflect. Back to second class console status you go.

Summary: too much money in PC tournaments compared to console tournaments and console players are getting tired of being paid less for putting in same amount of hours to practice and want that PC/CS:GO money :jawalrus:


actual post:
I actually think in the next year or two COD competitive play will swing back to PC from consoles. More tournament type buildings are popping up across the country in MLG style but they only support PC gaming (because league of legends, dota, CS:GO and hearthstone are so big in competitive scene - regardless of peoples personal opinion about them). Nadeshot started playing H1Z1 and CSGO on PC and even he kind of admitted call of duty competitive scene has been dry the past 2 years or so (it was almost a fad type competitive scene for consoles).

Believe it or not, PC had as long of run competitive wise as far as tournaments go than consoles did for Call of Duty(call of duty1-4), so its kind of already pre built in. The main difference is that on PC you can edit server files to cater to competitive crowd where on console you pretty much have to play whatever the creators of the game put infront of you.

if BLOPS3 does not bring it back to what it once was competively or even further (it needs to be a featured game at Dream Hack, ESL, etc.) then I think thats it competitively for call of duty unless they bring it back to PC to get real sponsors and money behind it :manny:


sales wise I dont think itll ever swing back in PC favor though. Too many young kids play it and most of them not about that PC life.
