A game that is strongly associated with PC, I typically expect to skew towards Xbox for some reason. I guess it might be an artifact of the fact that Xb360 dominated PS3 in USA and UK where these historically PC games (Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Witcher, Diablo) are pretty popular. So it seems to me that a game like Diablo III doing roughly the same proportions as the install base (slight but statistically insignificant advantage to Xb one) is a good sign for PS4.

I still expect popular fps games to perform better on Xb one relative to install base, much like certain types of games did better on PS3 in the UK and USA relative to install base. Despite all the exclusive extras I think Destiny will sell better relative to install base on Xb one. Though Destiny should sell better on PS4 in absolute numbers. At present Xb one is 66% of PS4 in the UK. I think destiny on Xb one will get up to 80% of PS4 Destiny sales.

Nice hold for TLOUR. Hopefully it will cruise along at 8-10K until the holiday lift and see some good holiday sales before fading pretty quickly in the new year. Still it will have done its job.

Hardware should see a bit of a boost for PS4 and Xb one. But probably not a big boost given it's a late port.

Doesn't it have a marketing deal with Sony?

If it does it's a shitty marketing deal here because I haven't seen it advertised for any platform.
