Lol Rol told me not to get his hopes up with this one.

Well Rol are you happy now

Happy about the Xbox One sales. It's time for bananaking21 to get the champagne out.

However, for complete satisfaction I need confirmation for a sub-200k month for the PS4.


Told you I wasnt overhyping when I said Xbox One NPD = DEAD

But, if you took Next-gen only, says "inFAMOUS Second Son was the top selling next gen software title in April"

Not sure what that means..

Infamous was the best selling next gen exclusive for the month. At least that's what I take away from it. 


Next gen only so that excludes games like titanfall so pure spin.

I was given three different answers there lol

Also, considering that VGChartz showed the XB1 winning April in the US... can we get a GAF mod to ban it from twitter also?

Wow VGC, I'm starting to think I wont be checking your weekly numbers anymore...

For comparison, 360 numbers for April from 2006 to 2013, from GAF

360:

April 2006 - 295K

April 2007 - 174K

April 2008 - 188K

April 2009 - 175K

April 2010 - 185K

April 2011 - 297K

April 2012 - 236K

April 2013 - 130K

Why MS continues to use the X% over 360.  It's only going to bite them in the ass at the end, since they are going to have to stop and people will continually bring up when they constantly did.

VGC: XB1 - 217k, NPD - 115k


Terrible...


and people were upset when we called bullshit on the vgc numbers. 

But, they are the only numbers we have, so we MUST except them at face value.

We still need the PS4 and WII U numbers for sake of discussion or maybe meltdown ...

So, basically, a game in its 3rd week outsold Kinect Sports Rivals. Might be another reason for dropping Kinect - people don't want to play Kinect games.
