sony has to pay less, but they can afford less so its no  big deal for m$.   i dont think we will not see so many exklusiv 3rd party games, most will come to pc too, because sony and m$ dont care about ust beeing console exclusiv.


Sony as a company is focusing more on it's playstation division and I'm willing to bet they are willing to invest in a lot more 1st and 3rd party exclusives (among other things) to draw in more people to the ps4. You spend money to make more money. Sony is banking a lot on the ps4. How much money MS has compared to sony doesn't really matter because I'm sure MS is only gonna devote so much resources to the xbox brand.

On a console that's sold 14M? Yes I'm impressed.

realy? i mean, some games impress me, but most of the million sellers, meh, was so clear that they sale well.

im impressed with the evil within  and shadow of mordor sales, even with killzone and infamous but the rest was just obvious.

How unimpressive, I mean they have sold more consoles and have less games to choose from than MS. Now if their console was selling worse and they were releasing more games I would be impressed by PlayStation =P

You know, digital gaming is huge in PS4.

They also have less $60 retail games to choose between.  Competition has also sold less systems, while having more $60 games to choice between. So them not hitting 3 million is more likely and if they do with the number of units sold, it would be a massive acheivement at it's current state.

cod should be over 3 million by now dont you think :P


Sony is at attach rate is 3.79 for COD AW

Xbox one is 3.28  for COD AW

However Xbox One has Halo MCC, Sunset and more $60 retail games to choose between. So you could say that the .51 less attach ratio is really just spent on other games.

Ps4 over all attach rate is 4.03

XBox One Over all attach rate is 3.99.  

So this is a virtual tie and both are keeping the exact same attach ratio. meaning they are selling the exact same amount of games.

XB1 also has a COD AW bundle, so that boosts it's rate.

By $60 do you just mean, retail games?  Because you know, XB1 had more game discounts than a mother lover.  Sunset Overdrive & Halo MCC are already $45.  Forza Horizon 2 is $35.

I'm boggled by where all this XB1 has more games comes from.  PS4 has more retail games, and more digital games.  It is also giving away more games with it's online subscription service, which if anything could reduce the amount of games people buy.
