All these numbers are wrong. Killzone sold 270k in November according to NPD and DR3, Forza an Ryse all sold between 220k and 185k, or did I miss something?

It's not surprising. PS4 sales are higher in the NPD, Killzone is a FPS, and the only other exclusive PS4 owners could pick up is Knack. Look at what Resistance did during the PS3 launch.

I am surprised that Forza outsold DR3 but then again idk the sales history of the DR franchise. Not surprised Ryse sold the least of the 4, new IP and all.

And wow less than 500k for Killzone. I would have thought it would do more.

Yeah...looking at NPD, not a single launch game on either console did 500k not even COD.

Probably a sign of strong launch lineups. Battlefield, CoD, NBA, Ass Creed, there were a lot of strong MP titles to choose from.

I'll use an old excuse I used to hear in the 7th gen. Microsoft fans aren't just into big first person shooters. The Xbox One fanbase is diverse so they purchase multiple genres....even though an FPS is the most purchased game on the system. PS4=ShooterStation.

The only reason Xbox was able to stay afloat is because of a shooter franchise, whereas Sony built the PlayStation on MANY different genres.

He is being sarcastic

Oh god! I feel so stupid! I didn't read the first sentence D:

Sorry D:


Doesn't make your first sentence *any* better or more true.

I'm sorry, but the Xbox would not be where it is today without Halo.


This is not what you said in the first time But who cares anyway by now. Almost 80 million bought the system, check the sales of the game you are talking about and you are easily contradicted.

I like what you did there. Heck even last year we got couple of threads about how Halo 4 outsold all PS3 exclusives combined. I guess rinse and repeat now from a different perspective. 

Edit: Also how they say on neogaf. The first post nails it.

I believe that is whatI said the first time "the only reason xbox was able to stay afloat is because of a shooter franchise"

Best selling launch exclusive... it is.

And Dead Rising 3 is the second best selling launch exclusive... > Forza... seems something is wrong with the numbers here... I'm happy DR3 sold that much.

In the otherside I'm a little sad Knack sold low compared with these others.


I'm happy as well; DR3 may be the worst example of next-gen graphics of the launch bunch, but it is one of the most enjoyable games right now.

Forza isn't a high seller
Some people think it should be but it will never be just cause it doesn't have the community behind it.
It had a chance to sell "good" just cause it was techwise the only real NextGEn Game from the Xbox One Launch Lineup but you can't make community love a genre they don't care that much for.

KZ at least is the most favorite Genre of the USA and shows of NextGen graphics.
