I am enjoying Killer Instinct, Forza 5, Titan Fall, Dead Rising and soon Halo MCC, Sunset overdrive, spark, and Forza Horizion 2. Don't worry, when sony goes bankrupt and Nintendo drops out of the console race due to the fact they can't make money off of consoles anymore you're are welcome to come to Xbox. Just don't bring your japanese weboo games.

It's just a pity that all those games are being played by so few.

The PS5 Exists.

And
"The Last of Us Remastered continues to have strong momentum on PS4; it was the top selling first-party title in August."

And now this incredible bundle with the white PS4 and Destiny in the usa. that's madness.

NPD doesn't count bundled/digital games.

Edit: Either way, its 3rd party multiplat. PS4 has more sold in US than X1.

It's too bad these sales mean jack for Sony. They lost way too much money on the ps3,psp and ps vita that the ps4 will probably just make them break even on the Playstation brand. Also, they are going bankrupt so they won't be here for long.

Wow. Someone a little hurt by the PS4's success? And your info is completely inaccurate. Sony made money off the PSP, and I'm guessing quite a bit of it. The Vita isn't losing them money, either. And finally, Sony is still at an overall profit for the Playstation brand. Sure, they burnt through most of the money they made from the PS2 before they righted the PS3, but the PS1 money was "still there."

If you want to see a brand that is still in the red, overall, look no further than the Xbox brand. They made NO profit off of the Xbox OG. And even though they started making money a few years after the 360 launched, it NOWHERE covers how much they lost in the first 2 years of its release. Why do you think MS investors want them to drop the brand so much?

LOL. Enjoying this generation? PS4 fans are.

I am enjoying Killer Instinct, Forza 5, Titan Fall, Dead Rising and soon Halo MCC, Sunset overdrive, spark, and Forza Horizion 2. Don't worry, when sony goes bankrupt and Nintendo drops out of the console race due to the fact they can't make money off of consoles anymore you're are welcome to come to Xbox.

Your gaming sessions must be repetively routine considering all those games save for Titanfall were out since last year... Not to mention, DR3 and Titanfall are on PC, where both games run much better. The closest upcoming exclusive for the X1 is FH2 and that's still a month away. Yeah... I don't think anyone would enjoy that kind of gaming lifestyle.

And Japanese games are awesome. Gotta learn to distinguish your personal tastes on Japanese games from their actual quality

PS4 sold more no matter what... Madden with or without bundle.

Crazy surprise for me.
