Idk it's chop full of incorrect information. I mean it was clearly made by a fanboy...

True, but I guess they have to laugh at something.  Especially with how things are going with One currently 

Like I said in a comment, it would be funny if it were true.  Probably went a little overboard with the sales part of it, but I was feeling extra saucy at that moment in time. 

Anyway, Sony exclusives sell just as well as MS's.  The only problem is that Xbox fans seem to like to compare EVERY exclusive with either Halo or GeOW, as if ALL MS's exclusives sell that well.  GT is like Sony's Halo.  UC is like Sony's GeOW.  GOW is like Sony's Fable.  Last of Us, a new IP, outsold every Forza but 3, and could become a new 4M+ franchise.  Heavy Rain outsold Alan Wake by ~2x.  Then, you have smaller franchises (something MS definitely lacks), like Infamous and R&C, that sell 1M+/2M+ every time.  Then, we have all those new IPs Sony is developing for the PS4 that may become larger franchises, as well.

The Craig's List part was the funniest, didn't expect that. Good effort, not the best, but I always get a small laugh out of these when done right.

A. People still do this? thought that video and trend died years ago.

B. The video is reserved for things that... ya know... cause a reaction. No sony fan that I saw reacted badly to the news

Nope. In fact, there is a channel dedicated to Hitler videos that has 62,000 subs! The most famous  video that channel uploaded has 2 million views. They are not really dead.

I have found Hitler videos funny in the past... but I don't think any Sony fans (or anyone who owns a PS4) who have never played a Gears game would be too fussed... i get the impression many Xbox Fans don't really care too much for the brand either (well on forums anyway).

Never played one, never seemed like my cup of tea, never going to buy it regardless of platform its on. Let people have their fun and hitler videos :)

Alan wake was awesome regardless of it's poor sales. It's a shame MS have no stomach it seems for games that sell poorly the first time around. AW could easily be made into a successful franchise. It has a lot of potential as a game. I think it sold 600,000 before the massive discounts came, which isnt particularly great, but the DLC sold very well apparently.

But yeah, it's easy to compare non like for like, or just focus on those titles that sell exceptionally well.

this seems kinda pathetic for all the gaming fans...

Could have been funny if there was any more than a "meh" reaction from Sony fans.

Was there ever a Bayonetta 2 exclusive to Nintendo Hitler reaction video? Now that was a fan meltdown worthy of a Hitler reaction video.
