What? Are you really saying this? Updates makes a console competitive? Ok. You win. I am out of this conversation.

Looks like you really haven't read that other thread.

Read it. It will change your mind about things. I mean the International Business Times is saying it. If anyone has insight into gaming it's them.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

International business times says one thing. Another reputed site says other thing. Wake me up when Xbox One starts to dominate PS4.

I believe is meant as a joke because of this http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=187661&page=1


Yeah. And a few days ago another famous site cited PS4 to destroy Xbox One. They sites all talk, no action. If these updates doesnt convert to Xbox One domination then its meaningless. And we all know that.

The gen just started. You need to give it more time. This is going to be a 7 year generation. Anything can happen.



i will be shocked if this gen last 7 years,  4k is starting to come out and the price is starting to drop on it, on top of that these 2 systems arent really that powerful, normally consoles come out and are as powerful as top of hte line  pcs this gen its like a mid grade pc   5 years is my prediction before we see ps5 and xbox2 or whatever the hell they will call it.

Everytime someone says Halo for Xbox, I think Mario for Nintendo, but that isn't even symmetric. Halo is more like Xbox's Zelda. They don't have a Mario.

CherrypickChartz

Why cherrypick?

tl:dr

WW LTD

Zelda = 75 mill, Halo = 53 mill, Mario = 529 mill

Globally in the US

Zelda = 39 mill, Halo = 40 mill, Mario = 267 mill

Conclusion: Halo =/= Mario, Halo == Zelda

Why include games that have released, games that have no data, DLC, IOS games, games that aren't even part of the franchise, and etc?

Halo is a much newer franchise, it's above Zelda.

Nope, irrelevant. Everything is included to remain objective.

All of this data can be found in VGChartz by Charts>Game Totals "zelda" "mario "halo" (individual searches)

Claim: Halo is Xbox's Zelda.

Evidence: Zelda and Halo's life time sales are within 1-2 million of each other, Zelda outsells Halo globally.

Rationale: Zelda has peformed the same over time as Halo has even though halo has done it faster (Higher Average), this is basically the situation with the PS3 and 360 magnified. Lack of global prescene of Halo however, negates most of Halo's age discrepancy. Not to mention Age discrepancy is pretty irrelevant considering many established franchises have been outsold by younger ones. Wii Sports for example sold more than all Halo games combined despite being a generation younger than it.

This Mario, Zelda, Halo comaprison argument is ridiculous.

Halo sells well and so does the other two...

How is that irrelevant? ... Halo outsells Zelda, that's a fact. Just because a new franchise outsells an older doesn't change the fact that Halo has been a bigger franchise than Zelda for years.
