I wouldn't be surprised if they're going to announce it later today. Sounds like the site wasn't supposed to announce it just yet.


Press Releases usually involve more than one group of people which is why it is even more reason to be skeptical.  If there was a press release there is a good chance other sites would be reporting it but they arent.

And this is where the problem is.  Somebody mentioned VGC earlier, and that is fine and all but VGC has always been up front about it being educated Estimates.  Sites like Insiderp (of course this isnt the same site so who knows)  are not being up front about things and are making it sound like it is officiol news when in reality it is most likely a guess on their part.

It wasn't a global launch though. It comes out in Japan on May 22.

People seriously doubt this? Even VGC agrees.


It's not the people doubt it, it's that they don't want to believe. I'm pretty sure inFamous should be passed 1 million by now.

Ah here you are again ...

Nobody is disputing the figure (I for one believe it's over 1m) just the source being obviously BS. (until proven otherwise.)

i dont see why titanfalls would even be brought up but lets put things into context.

-only the 2nd big title ps4 really has and lets face it when your hungry youll eat anything

-its available in 48 markets vs 13

-heres the laughable part titanfall is always online.  so people with crappy wont buy it  or even in some areas cant even buy it because it was  canceled it in their area

so for all the sells jockeys why do people even compare games?  tbh i never really cared for the argument about sells at all.  it always boils down to preference.  some good games sell like it was a turd and vice versa.


48 versus 13.....x1 is easy to get in those marets, and those markets are tiny, and sony dominated how much diff do you think those tiny countries like costa rica wioll add? Seriously? They won't make much difference.

 

Only second big title for ps4?? Same can be said of Titanfall and x1....ps4 has a lot more coming now until fall then xbox does in MLB the show, Daylight, FF14, Bound by flame, drive club, last of us is also rumoured for the summer.

say what?   ryse, dr3, forza, pvz, titanfall .  so no the same cant be said for the x1.  and to answer your ? pennies add up.  why do people always talk about whats coming up when were talking about the now?  i wouldnt have even added my 2 cents into it if it wasnt for the lame comparison.

Because not everyone likes to be short sighted.

Good news for gaming imo

A non TDM Bro Shooter selling 1 million plus when only 6.something million PS4's have been sold so far is good for the industry I would think.

Lack of games the so far in 2014 for the PS4 surely played a part in that though

has nothing to do with being short sighted its truth avoidance.   

when you are speaking of whats present now talking about whats to come  is irrelevant especially when youre talking about a singular subject
