I can definitely see the X1 continuing to fall now that the Titanfall hype is starting to sizzle out. All Sony needs is stable supply. Then, launch MLB next month, exclusive marketing for Watchdogs in May, Driveclub in the Summer, exclusive marketing for Destiny, and then the Order late 2014. Add to that some hype building by showing off a bit of PSVR at E3 and it's going to be a very tough road for MS this year, especially if all they have is a HD remake, a game from a mediocre developer, and yet another Forza. I very much doubt QB will make it this year, and even if it did, it's not the system selling, buzz making type of game (see Alan Wake).

Do you understand that no one care for your biased and uterly wrong "predictions"?
You can down play and hope XOne will fail as much as you want. It won´t change the reality.
The reality is that Xone is performing better than much of people here "predricted".

I doubt anyone cares what anyone else cares. No one on here really knows anything for sure, and they're called predictions for a reason. The X1 won't fail in NA, and UK, elsewhere it's a very different story.
The X1 is perfomring so well, that MS is packing in their most hyped game ever for free, and issuing price cuts left and right. That's truly the mark of a successful console. At least, that's what you're saying, right?

Wasn't there a report that that PS4 digital sales were a lot higher nowadays than expected. It'd make sense given all the PSN $ cards at the top of Amazon charts (though Amazon isn't a big indication of much). inFamous Second Son was the first, full priced digital game I've ever purchased.

You arent getting it, they said it had at least 850k retail pre-orders. Which was completely wrong.

I'm not defending Derp, since I doubt they're right, but it's not like VGchartz numbers are any better than theirs. We won't know either way until there's official numbers, all we have now are estimated and guesses.

Insomniac isn't mediocre, and Sunset Overdrive looks amazing.

Based on a CGI trailer and their bad track record these past few years? How'd you come to the conclusion? I mean, at least if we'd seen something about then maybe, but we've literally seen nothing. We know more about QB than we do SO (and that's saying something).
I honestly want to know where the hype for SO is coming from outside it being an Insomniac game exclusive to Xbox. I must be missing something because I swear no one gave a crap about them until they announced Xbox exclusivity (the reaction to Fuse, their two "Ratchet" games, and the constant hate for R3 would have led me believe otherwise).
And regarless, SO isn't a hype building, system selling game. It's good for people who already own X1s, but it won't be moving many systems, it's not going to help MS' future prospects unless it comes with a nice, fat price cut.

I don't care that it's exclusive to Xbox, it looks like a fun game. The E3 trailer was fantastic, if the gameplay is anything like that I think it will be a great game.
|
That's a big if. Insomniacs history as of late, would lead me to believe that it won't be the case. But again, that's just my opnion. It could be you really loved their past few games, in which case I'd see why you're hyped. I just didn't. Their Ratchet Future Trilogy was great, and R1 was great. Everything else they've made has been meh last gen (especailly hated what they did to R2). I also hate their handeling of the Ratchet IP
But as I said, I may be proven wrong. It could be they return to form, and in that case, I'll enjoy playing it in 2016/2017.
