JustBeingReal predict 27,000,000 PS4 in 2015 too... |
27M is a 2015 sales possibility if PS4 gets GT7, other exclusives we haven't yet had announced and a price cut down to $299 at some point this year, along with the games we've had announced for this year already.
Considering the system did 14.1M with the games it had last year, the price point it had and 3rd party preference, better indies than the competition, it's highly likely vastly improved sales figures will happen with what we know is definitely coming out.
3rd party games look a lot more compelling in 2015 compared to last year.
Last year there was Infamous Second Son and Driveclub for big AAA exclusives and First Light as an add-on.
This year there's The Order, Bloodborne, Ratchet & Clank, Until Dawn, Tearaway Unfolded, Uncharted 4, Deep Down, Let it Die, Fat Princess Adventures, Drawn to Death, Killstrain and Sony's already confirmed they have more exclusives to announce for this year, that's a much better line-up than what we had in 2014 and 2013 combined.
There's also Rime, WiLD, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Tomorrow Children and Alienation, which look very good, along with the as yet unshown Shadow of the Beast, Sony likely has more indies to announce for 2015 too.
Persona 5, Dragon Quest Heroes seem to be exclusive in the west.
No Man's Sky and Hellblade for timed exclusives
I did say that based on what we know to be coming out at least a 50% improvement in sales is likely. So 21.15M with what's been announced, expecting a price cut from $399, to $299, GT7 and more AAA excluisves, more 3rd party and bigger indies to do nothing to push that up much higher is pretty ridiculous.
Selling 27M is a 91% increase compared to 2014, not really ridiculous if everything above I mentioned happens, but unlikely if some stuff doesn't.
