@get2sammyb these media create numbers include neither downloads nor download cards, famitsu has more accurate numbers.
and impressive number for ARK...must have been great marketing or something because usually western games don't do so well in japan and especially not when it's from a pretty much completely unknown studio.
@KingdomHeartsFan how exactly is sony supporting it? none of these announced games is published by sony. they're all smaller 3rd party titles. reminds me A LOT of the vita tbh. what are sony's next big vr games? do we know any?
vita's problem wasn't that it didn't have any games. it had and has plenty of 3rd party games (mostly smaller ones). it was that after a while it didn't have any big first party games. and i'm already seeing the same happening with ps vr.
ah. the poor man's smash bros. (well it is that quite literally..it's free lol)
i actually tried it out for a bit and have to say the wall jumping kind of breaks the game as you can save yourself out of almost any situation. they should remove that. they probably only added it to make the game at least feel a little bit different from smash bros., but it's a change for the worse.
having to be online for saving is such nonsense. what will happen when they'll INEVITABLY turn off the servers in a couple of years? (gt5's online has been killed after only 3.5 years and with gt sport out gt6's online will be next to go soon!) i won't be able to play the game at all anymore?!
woah..need to make some space for that then. wasn't expecting it to be more than 10 GB. and surprised it's already available as they announced it to only be available starting 11 am MET.
@KirbyTheVampire i don't think there's much they can do as sony still uses bluetooth 2.1. (whereas nintendo has been using the much more efficient 4.0 since the wii u(!) - the wii u pro controller had even longer battery life than the switch one...i can literally use it for several months without charging)
sony burned me with the vita. i might be interested, but definitely not day one.
just for comparison: wii u was a massive failure (much more so than the vita i would say) but still nintendo didn't burn me with it as at least the first-party support was..i wouldn't say very good, but it was good.
Digitally, I buy almost nothing that's not on a sale. One exception was Axiom Verge where the developer said right from the start "hey just get this game now because it won't go on sale for a long time". (went on a small sale after 3/4 of a year) Why aren't more devs doing that?
@Arminillo they are actually doing that for sales and pre-orders in the japanese store. each pre-order game gets one panel which opens up to all the different editions. and each publisher gets one panel for its sale which opens up to all the different games on sale.

Re: PGW 2017: PlayStation Plus Members Get Monster Hunter: World Beta in December

Re: Japanese Sales Charts: Shadow of War Somehow Manages to Conquer the Top Spot

Re: UK Sales Charts: Destiny 2 Down Dramatically Compared to First Game
@Mahe dude just look at that top 10. the first nine games are horrible.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Destiny 2 Down Dramatically Compared to First Game
@Mahe it's a completely pointless comparison. and considering UK have terrible taste in games it's actually doing quite well.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Destiny 2 Down Dramatically Compared to First Game
@TheHatredDMC why are you comparing a new IP on a new console to a nostalgia-driven remake on an established console?
Re: Review: Warriors All-Stars (PS4)
