They may count, as you still have to go through the store and redeem/"purchase" the games. Not outside the realm of possibility that more people than not only download the 1 or 2 a year they might be interested and not the full suite of games each month. |
No, the numbers make zero sense if you assume ps+ numbers are included. Let's take last quarter as an example.
Sony reported they sold 75.1m units of software and 28% of that number was digital.
That means they sold 54.1m software at retail.
Now if we assume just 20% of software is digital, and the other 8% is ps+ we get these numbers.
Retail - 54.1m
Digital- 15m
PS+ - 6m
They also revealed they had 34.3m ps+ subscribers at the end of that quarter, so as at least 7 PS4 games were offered that quarter (destiny 2 was a bonus game) there were 240.1m ps+ games offered that quarter.
So for ps+ downloads to be just 6m for the quarter that would mean only 2.5% were downloaded. I guarantee far more than 2.5% of people are like me and add every ps+ game to their library regardless of if they will play it or not.
It makes far more sense for the truth to be that ps+ figures are not included.
