Has that been confirmed? I think they said something about GTA V on PS4 being "something very special" thus hinting at exclusive content or something along the lines, but has their been any official confirmation?


yes, in a way. they said back at E3 there will be some kind of special incentives for PS4 owners. so most likely it will be exclusive DLC which will end up being timed.

I think we had a thread like this a couple months ago. Back then the majority (including me, I think) said that the 3DS was the most likely to do it, looking at its shipments for the year up till now I can't say that I still find it likely.

The PS4 has been crushing expectation constantly, so maybe that'll do it black friday or the last week before christmas, I'm not betting on it though. PS4 is gonna get its million units week(s) next year.


it already had a million unit week

however 3DS wont hit it this year. last year it has a huge ammount of games and it was its peak year. this year shipments are bad (and it is over tracked) and its on a downward trend now, add to that there are new consoles on the block. 

PS4 might in black friday week or the week before christmas. it certainly wont in either sep or oct.

Yeah ok, I excluded the launch weeks.

But I agree, black friday or the last week before christmas there is a slight chance of it happening, other than that it would take a miracle I think.



maybe ps4 can have a million selling week,.. i doubt it though.

none of the other consoles have a chance.

Gamescom Gigaton: Knack 2 out this December.



I doubt it, maybe the 3DS when he gets an official price cut.



If Xbox One goes down to 350 sure, I could see it selling a million. No price cut though I expect something like 600-700k during black Friday week. I think PS4 can get 1 million for black Friday though



I think the next gen consoles are both still too expensive to do 1M a week.

I'm sure they will get close though.  

3DS has a good chance of doing it.  It did last year, and a smash bros. bundle would sell it nicely.



I doubt any will. Maybe the 3DS will squeeze in there (if it gets a price cut it will for sure, but I think Nintendo will wait until 2016 for a price cut). And the PS4 will get close.



Bets:

1. If the Wii U sells closer to 10 million LTD by 1/3/2015 I win. If it sells closer to 9.5 million LTD by 1/3/2015 OfficerRaichu15 wins (winner gets 2 weeks of avatar control)--Lost.
