PS5 Owners Don’t Play Sony’s First-Party Games

[Gizmo_Duck]

Yea since they're the only region that releases that info on the annual basis. Or at all.
But I'll remember this post for the next time you refer to EU PlayStation sales or UK numbers with zero context or hard numbers.

Funny how that works, right?

It’s been this way since forever. Sony stans just want to convince you otherwise.

Even their most popular games only capture 10-15% of the fanbase.

This is such a dog shyt article.

So the most played games, based off the amount of time spent playing the games, are all extremely popular online multiplayer games?

Isn't that obvious?

The state of gaming journalism today is pure trash. Then they wonder why nobody respects kotaku when it comes to gaming news and opinions.

Sony stan facts

Nope Microsoft games usually have much higher attach rates. For example there’s less than half the Xbox ones on the market yet Halo 5 sold pretty much the same as uncharted 4.

Xbox gamers actually buy/play Xbox exclusives.

That's cuz for two decades they only had two exclusives allegedly worth a damn.

bruh there really is no FH5 OT, unless I'm just buggin. Wow.

EDIT: Disregard, someone pointed it out to me. Pro-tip for the future, my dudes. Put the game's title first and THEN the subtitle.

Whatever excuse you want to use.

Facts are, the overwhelming majority of PlayStation owners don’t give a fukk about Sony exclusives

 

[PS5 Pro]

I think it's time I shut people up/down

If that's the case, why does Sony and occasionally Nintendo sale 100+ million consoles and yet Microsoft can't seem to do so?

This 100 mil number isn't special. You're acting like there are 100 million gamers when in reality the numbers are lower. Yes new gamers are entering the market daily but what about inflation? Disc read error was left unchecked for 6yrs. That's why PS2 sold 158 million.

Now if the industry is expanding, why the PS3 only sell half of that?

Why is the PS4 (which was so successful and fastest selling) behind by 40+million in sales, the Xbox flopped and it (PS4) still couldn't sell more than a system from 20yrs ago when the market was smaller. So try to operate in reality...

They will never answer this

They also won’t answer why microsoft felt the need to go out and spend 8.3 billion on a publisher for exclusives if they didn’t matter

They didn't spend 8.3 so they can sit on their asses and go "look at our exclusives" which they could have done. They could buy timed exclusives like Sony but instead they spent 100 billion on a cloud, and they securing games for their Netflix of gaming service.

It's already a hit without these big games, these big games is what forces YOU you recognize what we already been telling you

Yep, they are celebrating 5 million people logging on to play forza, but that amount of people would never actually pay for it.

I hear you but you know what's odd about what you're saying? Forza horizon 4 is Xbox One's best selling game at over 10 million copies SOLD (GAMEPASS didn't exist) So how does this truth make you look? EXPOSED!!! much?

No that blunder is not why xbox one got destroyed for 7 years, it failed due to the lack of actual content being released.

Ps3 also had a horrible launch and rebounded by mid gen

And by rebound you mean made a bunch of shytty games that most don't exist today

It’s been this way since forever. M$ stans just want to convince you otherwise.

Even their most popular games only capture 10-15% of any fanbase.

Xbox series over 8 million sold
Forza over 6 million gamers
Meanwhile mega hits like Returnal barely surpasses 500k, too human did better and wasn't hyped as good.

Forza thread looking quite empty while they in here still talking about PlayStation games

Any Sony centric thread that does numbers usually happened for two reasons.

1.) Y'all just like to gossip about dumb shyt like "ooih man I can't wait for this"

2.) Often it'll be a thread of everyone saying they didn't like it. Bloodborne thread comes to mind. We have the highest rated next gen game and you worried about how often ppl post in the thread?
