Absolutely agree. MLB probably won't move as many systems, but it could move a few and it'll sell very well.

Watchdogs will get exclusive marketing for PS4 and the best version will be PS4, it'll be identified as a PS4 game (much like CoD is an Xbox game) and it'll push consoles.

You guys really shouldn't underestimate Last of Us. It's a huge game and a lot of people missed out on it (especially in NA) because they were stuck with 360s. It can definitely move consoles, and it'll sell very well to 360 converts.

Desinty speaks for itself, much like Watchdogs, PS4 will be the best place to play it and it'll have exclusive marketing. Maybe even a bundle, it'll be big.

And the Order will be definitely be their big game. inFamous sold 1 million+ in 9 days, by the time the Order comes out the install base will probably be double, it'll definitely sell very well

Just because you don't like baseball, doesn't mean everyone doesn't. MLB has consistently sold pretty well. It's not a big system seller, but it can help and it'll do well. For it's fanbase, it's certainly a big deal. 

Not sure thats a good thing to shout about!

Op is right, anyone saying otherwise is in total denial.

MLB wont push that much but Destiny + Watch Dogs + ac unity will push much more PS4 than XB1.

Then about the exclusives, about XB1 , Halo 5 is for 2015, Sunset Overdrive will push like MLB, Quantum Break will push an average amount and the only big release to help XB1 against PS4 is Halo 2 remake, considering the fanbase it will surely push a good amount.

about the PS4, Deep down, Lily Bergamo and MLB will help a bit, Driveclub will push an average amount and The Order will be the big system seller
about th

I'm from the UK and couldn't care if it was or wasn't a system seller. I'm not having a go at you, it's just boring that you're saying the same points over and over again and then others keep replying with the same stuff over and over again.

Damn, hes a ms troll just trolling the sooner you all stop quoting the troll the better.  

this was an ok thread, was.

I imagine MLB does actually give PS consoles a pretty large boost in the long run. If you want to play a baseball game, you pretty much have buy a PS console if you want something decent.

Over the years MLB probably pulls in a couple hundred thousand customers. Sure it's no Halo or Uncharted, but ignoring it purely because it doesn't sell 5 million per release is pretty silly.

OT: TBH both the PS4 and X1 have a pretty lackluster year. I wouldn't say either is better right now.

But it's not. Not really, anyway. All that is is marketing jargon. No one buying Destiny for the XBO is feeling jipped or like they're getting a lesser version like with COD on the 360 at the start of last gen. It's absolutely nothing like the COD situation. It wasn't the exclusive content and bundles that sold COD to 360 owners last gen, it was Live, and Sony doesn't have that leg up over Live this gen, even if people agree that Plus is the better service. With Liv, it may as well have been the only service.

PS3 First Year

MLB 2K7 launched on PS3 and X360 on the week ending March 3 at this point PS3 had a userbase of 1,028,680 and X360 at 4,902,737. MLB 07 The Show launched the week ending May 19th with a userbase of 1,294,421. Now remember at this time PS3 was in not in a good way with gamers, and cost $499.99. 

X360 First Year

MLB 2K6 launched on X360 the week ending April 15th to a userbase of 1,267,720.

Now I could go on and on over the years, but I am just going to do this year one comparison. Basically, Baseball games sell around 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 every year across all games, and consoles. X360 sold 370,000 Baseball games its first year, PS3 sold 560,000 Baseball games its first year. 

PS4 already sits at ~3,000,000 sales (USA), which is more than both X360 and PS3 combine in their first year upon Baseballs arrival. Not only that, PS4 has much more popularity, better marketing, and and a cheaper price point. Additionally, MLB 14 The Show will be the only Baseball game on current gen systems.

MLB 14 The Show on PS4 will have an LTD much closer to 1,000,000 than 300,000. 

Couple of things to take into account.

PS4 is currently selling more than XBO, it has at the moment the public more on it's side. If the XBO price cuts fail to close the gap, why do people assume that when the key games come out, it won't push PS4 hardware further... it seems quite simple really.

MLB: Wont do anything worldwide but will benefit Sony obviously in USA... small bump at least.
WatchDogs is seen as a PS4 game, though poor trailers hasn't necessarily helped.. though again no one has seen XBO version.
Destiny - this is being pushed as a PS4 game, and with a higher user base will definitely sell more on PS4 (and bring more people in to PS4).
Sunset B... I'm expecting this game to fail to be honest with you.
Project Spark: Not actually expecting this to push hardware and would expect any jump to be less than MLB (sports fans are crazy :).
Quantum Break: This is the only game that I think more people will be interested in for XBO (if released this year)... and unfortunately I am not sure its going to sell that great (it might do a Alan wake)... of course if it releases early in the console life (maybe not till 2015) then there is a good chance it will push hardware/sales (fingers crossed it sells well I love Remedy)
The Division, I expect this to be delayed. But even though it might have exclusive DLC for XBO, I expect it to push more PS4 sales.

That's my general opinion on the games, but there is one point about Pushing PS4... it's selling really well, so these games will only improve its lower sales number.. So if the gap is 100k a month, then you can expect these multiplats releases to push that figure higher, and even if its a low number (say MLB only helps push PS4 push an extra 20k consoles say).. this will just increase the gap between the machines.

So for me it all depends on the price cuts from MS, if it will do anything extra, and we have the other countries for MS in september, so we may see it close the gap in the monthly figures some. Of course Sony in previous years has seen itself do well Jan to August and MS have caught back up in the holiday months. If Sony can ensure enough stock and still have forward momentum, it may be a totally different story this year.
