I took the PS Plus discount on Deathloop and I'll take advantage for Ghost Wire Tokyo too.
I really think Sony should do this way more of the and especially with their own first party games. They offered the PS Plus pre-order discount also for Hitman 3 and few other games like Sifu.

Hope it's a new IP. They haven't made a new IP since the PS3 era, in which they done two new IPs. Damn, they used to be so productive and efficient.

@BoldAndBrash Same here. I'd never understood why to care for these executives until Jim Ryan getting on top of Playstation and changing the things that made Playstation well Playstation. I really don't think any Petition can change the course of the executive position though. It gotta hurt at their bank account. That's the only language they speak. Give it a couple of years. They might lose or at least stagnate financially.

Jim Ryan sucks. Bring Shawn? Sean? Shaun? ***** it! Bring Mr. Layden back.

How to spend 3.6 billion dollars and still catch an L.

Yes, I payed for the upgrades. Can't wait to play em, but first, I'ma finish Lost in Random then back to the adventures of Nathan Drake the Great and Cloe Frazer.

@Reeneman Because I simply want that. Certain games are perfect for it. Mostly games like Dead Cells and such where I just go thru runs but also wanna watch some YT or something on Netflix while I get me some runs.

@Bentleyma I know that trick. Thanks though. But I still would want one not pinned next to it but rather a small window over on the screen at the corner.

Awesome. I still hope Sony integrate PiP with video games and streaming services like YT and such.

@nessisonett I don't know how you come up with "better", it's clearly different. That's all I said. It's rather silly to imply that different means better. Looking through Steam top 100, there's a concrete differentiation of games being played. Nothing wrong with that, at all. And funny that you mentioned FIFA being a main console game when even FIFA on Steam had more players than God of War. I guess, there are some overlapping incidents after all.

That sounds shockingly low tbh. That was the peak? So much buzz and high praise. I really don't think it'll get higher than that unless the game gets its first sale. But seeing the other games being much more played, one can tell there's a hugh difference between console gamers and PC gamers. I hoped for more to be frank. That's my favorite game right there. Regardless, I can't wait for God of War Ragnarok.

Boom! System seller

From 4 million to 10 million is definitely remarkable. The Power of PS Plus is well said. Congrats to Ghost Ship Games.

Insomniac Games got 2 games in the top ten NA and one game in Europe's top ten. They are carrying Playstation 5 without a doubt.

Also seeing Kena and It Takes Two in the top ten is really neat.

So Playstation 5 has sold 1 million last year in August and Xbox Series consoles overall reached a million just right after Christmas? They are damn close then! I mean UK was always a well balanced market but that's almost even. Well done Xbox.

@velio84 lolololol the loop of promo never stops. And we thought, it was over.

No matter who is behind Twisted Metal. It's gonna flop hard. These kind of games aren't requested besides by a very loud minority on the internet. Just take a look at Destruction AllStars which is the same game, more or less. Plus Destruction AllStars was on PS Plus and still nobody cared. The Nostalgia factor won't help whatsoever. Just wait and watch.

That's a lot of hours. That what turnt me off about AC Valhalla. And I still haven't bought it because of it.

Btw have they meanwhile shown console footage? The games out soon, isn't it? It's about time to showcase some console gameplay, instead flexing with length of the game.

In retrospective, it was a really good year.
Highlights to me were
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Control Ultimate Edition
Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Battlefield V
A Plaque Tale Innocence
Hitman 2
Mortal Shell

Let's hope this year will be at least as good as last year.

@Culjoseth Are you slow? I already wrote it!

The Playstation 4 outsold the next gen Xbox Series consoles? Lolololololololololololololololololololol
That's hilarious.

I don't think Sony ever been able to support more than one platform. And as PSVR needs its own games, it'll distract Sony to a certain degree of supporting Playstation 5.

Was to be expected.

I can't wait. I haven't played The Last of Us for a while but after that masterpiece that The Last of Us Part 2 was, with the untouchable combat, audio design, animations, AI and general gameplay, I really wish to see The Last of Us to have all that.
I hope it's true. Even though I still want to see something completely new from Naughty Dog. Day one, no doubt.

Days Gone was a B-Tier title thru and thru. Bend Studio promised so much but delivered next to nothing upon their promises. No camp system, no "carma" system, no multiple choices and so on and so on. The characters were one dimensional as it can get. And story was solid but the pacing was abysmal. They dragged it at any possibility. The combat was generic and unpolished. Every shooter that needs a slowdown mechanism to actually be efficient to shoot, is simply bad the shooting mechanics itself.

U criticized Sony alot for green-lighting certain games and Red-lighting others, but red-lighting a sequel to Days Gone 2 is probably the best decision they have ever made. Bend Studio is the big blemish at Sony first party big studios. They literally have never done a game that I liked. Sony should reconstruct Bend Studio too in my opinion. They just don't function as the rest of the big ones do.

Multiple game project you say huh? Sounds promising. I hope for a new IP like a Fantasy game or a Sci Fi game or an Agent game. You know what, I would take any game by Naughty Dog.

I'm still waiting for an acquisition of a fighting game studio because of Sonys direction into E-Sports.
They have Polyphony taking care of the Racing side of things, Guerrilla Games might develop a FPS for that but one big fighting game, made by Sony is, missing.

8 million copies in 18 months?! That's a giant now. Could it be Sucker Punch's best selling game ever? Hugh congratulations to Sucker Punch Productions and Sony. Easily one of the best games last generation. I'm stoked for whatever their next project is.

Let's see if Sony can support the PS5 and a VR at the same time this time around. I hope the output for PS5 games won't suffer because of this.

@Jarobusa I played around 24 hours of the game and platinumed it by then. But I'm pretty sure it's doable faster. I really took my time with it. The biggest challenge for the platinum was the Combo Training with Master Wu. But also that is really manageable.

@PegasusActual93 Should have read the article instead skipping through it, I guess. Thanks for the heads up.

Yoooo I didn't know Ken Levine is working on Bioshock 4!! I thought someone else was. Even though "reportedly" the game is in development hell, I'm really pumped now about it as this is how I found out Ken himself is working on it. Hope it'll turn out according to Ken's vision.

Isn't really my month but still a bit better than the previous months so that's for that.
I'm looking for Dirt 5 the most.

Big Yikes... Samy not only having bad takes but also bad games.

Has anyone played Ender Lilies? I do like the graphics but I'm not sure about the other aspects like difficulty or the feeling of the combat.

Oh yeah Iki Island was very neat. Hope we'll get some news from Sucker Punch Productions upcoming project.

Sony has definitely done a great output so far, but they desperately need PS5 only games. All the cross gen titles are annoying tbh. Even though I'm looking forward to all three of em. I really want to see another Playstation 5 only game like Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Returnal or Demon's Souls. If these cross gen titles is all they have, then I'd see it as a failure and a big middle finger for all early adopters.
I hope they have some announcements up there sleeves that nobody would see coming.

Well, I thought FF7 Remake 2 been in development since the release of FF7 Remake. Would be odd, if it wasn't in development yet.

Oh it is a brand new game? I didn't know that. I really hope Sony continues that trend releasing brand new games on PS Plus day and date, just like in the PS3 era.

I'm about to finish FF7 INTERmission. And after that I might finally pick up either Hades or Death's Door.

Strong sales.
Got myself FF7 INTERmission. Might pick up Hades too.

That's friggin amazing. I wonder how long it takes to get FF7 Part 2. Might take a while as FF 16 ain't even out yet but still can't wait for both of em.

Oh look it's the BFF of Godjima. Nice that he has some fun too.

Jokes aside, massive numbers. Congrats to Geoff and team. It was the best Game Award Show, at least trailer-wise.

@WallyWest I am aware of Game Pass but I always thought that Game Pass was supposed to boost video game sales not completely erase them. At least to the executives at Microsoft. They constantly said that such a subscription model would assist in sales, as gamers would get a chance of playing these games before buying them.

As someone else in the comments replied to me and said that most who played Halo Infinite, hasn't even gotten the earliest Achievements. It just got me wondering, if the executives from Microsoft has totally missed their goal or does it just apply to smaller titles of the whole "Game Pass boosts sales talk.

@Richnj Good points. It's just when I grew up Halo seemed to be the biggest thing. Now it was in the top ten for a week and it's already at the bottom of the top 20 in the second week. Feels so weird.
But your points make sense, the last Halo was in 2015, which wasn't that well received. So I think people are more cautious because of that.

It really looks great. Next year gonna be spectacular.

Ratchet and Clank almost back in the top ten is nice to hear. Not sure if we'll get another Ratchet and Clank this gen, after Insomniac seems to be very busy developing Marvel games. But you never know. The sales should be in favor for it.

Halo already out of the top 10 is crazy. All that talk that Game Pass boosts sales seems to be ridiculous now. Or maybe it just applies to smaller scaled games.

I've been waiting for a discount on the DLC since release. Even if it's just 5 bucks, I'ma take it.

Spider-Man Miles Morales is such a fantastic game. I'm pretty sure the demand for Spider-Man has never been bigger. And the launch of the movie definitely helped it a bit. (which is also fantastic)

Geez, Halo only at number 4? Has any Halo ever launched so poorly?
Seems like a safe bet it'll be out of the top 10 next week, just like Forza Horizon 5 only maintained in the top ten for a week.

Battlefield? Already?! Dayum. Didn't that game come out 3 weeks ago?
