Doing maths with PS4, I'm starting to believe PS4 will reach 20M sold this year too. PS4 sold around 9M the last 3 months of last year. I expect PS4 selling even more this year, maybe around 10M, according to this site PS4 near 84M at the end of september, so that will put PS4 near 94M total sales lifetime. According to Sony PS4 sold 73'6M by the end of 2017, so that means another 20M selling year for PS4...and everyone is disussing about PS5 being next year.....HA!.

Sony's forecast was always a joke to me. I know many took it as gospel and a sign the ps4 is dommed to decline to irrelevance but I always maintained a yearly prediction of 18m+.  We'll find out soon how much higher it goes.

Playstation 4 is the new beast, and I think it's well deserved, considering how many interesting and quality titles have come out since 2017

New beast? Did it replace the old beast of PS4 2017 or something lol :p

“PlayStation 4 hardware unit sales achieved an all-time October high for the platform,” Piscatella said. “While PlayStation 4 hardware dollar sales reached its highest point for an October month since October 2014.”
This was actually one of the best Octobers for any PlayStation console ever.
“October 2018 unit sales of PlayStation 4 reached the highest mark for any PlayStation hardware platform in an October month since the PlayStation 2 in October 2002,” said Piscatella.

PS4 just can't stop breaking records. Highest October ever and at €299. WOW.

Look at those October PS4 sales. Declining gradually from 2014 to 2017. Look at this data one would probably conclude last year on the assumption PS4 would be still €299 and pro €399 that we would see further decline. Instead it smashes it out of the water. PS4 will end up going so far over 100m I think most people even grasp the reality yet.  

 

Top 10 best selling games so far this year

  1. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4**
  2. Red Dead Redemption II
  3. Far Cry 5
  4. Marvel’s Spider-Man
  5. NBA 2K19
  6. God of War 2018
  7. Monster Hunter: World
  8. Madden NFL 19**
  9. Grand Theft Auto V
  10. Call of Duty: WWII**
All top 10 best selling games of the year are on PS4 and likely sold the majority on that platform.
