This is so sad that people love these games that much.


nothing wrong with liking cod i rather like shooters myself.  the sad part is most of the people that brag about exclusives never buy them.  people can say what they want about the wii but they have numbers the others will never match

No there is not, but what I find sad is that these games don't really add much to each game for their $60 pricetag.  Same engine, pretty much same MP with added tweaks to make it look like a different game, Michael Bay explosions/action over a 5-6 hour game.  Of course they know they will sell a shit ton anyway so why waste more money then needed to make it.  I've hated the last 3 COD games and I do hope the franchise declines rapidly in the next couple games so they might actually make a worthwhile game that's worth my time.

Of course this is all purely subjective.

GT 5 sold last year 1.55 Million. Its sitting at 8.86 Mil. So maybe in a years time it might be a 10 Million seller. Now the question is will the next COD be faster ?


It's actually shipped 9.2 million compies by Sept 2012 so I think it should be sitting around the 9.5 million mark now and will pass 10 million by the end of the year becoming the 5th 10 million seller. GTA V will hopefully become the 6th and the new COD should become the 7th (sadly)

Yeah, TLOU will be amazing.  Looks like a game that deserves to be a 10 million seller.  Sadly it won't because not many sony games make it that high, but it should settle at 4-6 million, i think.

Actually, VGChartz number looks pretty out of reality. GT5 last shipped data in september was 9.2 million and that was before the hollidays.



Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

.....Not to be a troll ....but this is just depressing :(

Same here. It shows the way gamers are no longer individuals. I come from an age when all I had was my imagination. Gamers are just another indication that people have lost their own identity and instead just follow the latest fads/fashions.



 

The PS5 Exists.

And here I thought some non shooter would make the list. Silly Weedlab ...



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

Man, I was born in the wrong age, miss you 90's, the only thing bad about that time is that they didn't have a good internet.

That's probably what made the games so good . It gave way for great local multiplayer and games were less mainstream. It also allowed developers to focus more on singleplayer and better gameplay. And hyping a game that wasn't good was much more difficult without the internet hypetrain.
