Interesting! Of course, they're still way behind on the PS4 as well.

Thats a lot of people with very expensive Destiny regret!

There has to be a way to get these people on to online gaming forums and inform them of their awful purchase.

Wonder who these people are, because I've encountered many who are pretty satisfied. I remember similar sentiments when GT5 received its 84 Metascore (ridiculous, I know). Yet, it continued to sell, and sell, and.....sell!

Right, because that is totally the prevailing attitude on the internet!

Critically the game didn't even approach expectations. A horrendous game? No.

But nothing like what those hundreds of thousands of people were expecting!

According to VGChartz, the PS4 only sold 60k+ more in the US than the Xbox One dispute having a bundle that was in the top ranking at Amazon and GameStop for months. Either the PS4 is massively undertracked or the Xbox one is massively overtracked. I believe that the Xbox One got a decent boost so I believe that this will be one of the greately single undertrackings of the the year for the PS4. It doesn't take much of an analyst to figure that out.

Also, there are huge indications that the White PS4 bundle outsold the Xbox 360 Destiny. So, I will go as far as to say that the PS4 is undertracked by at least 200k.

I don't know what the expectations were, but that has nothing to do with the discussion. 

Sure you do

The game is better than gamers expected... everybody that played the Alpha/Beta is loving it.

The didn't matched reviewers expectations.

Did you play it? Give me the reasons behind you claims about it didn't meet the expectations... what did you expected from it? Right now people can't stop to play it... it is like drugs... so vicious.

Clearly the provailing opinion on the internet is negative because the ones with a positive opinion of it are too busy playing.

The negative opinion however, doesn't seem that big when you consider that the game looks set to have sold over 3 million copies across all platforms in the first week.

Sure theres some people moaning about it, but a provailing amount of 3 million?, no, not at all.

Im sure "hardware" for this week includes the Wii U.  Unlike some here, I do acknowledge its presense, at least sales wise.


That's nice coming from you.

You need to sto implying stuff about people. Not only is it rude, but it gets us off topic.

Which gamers? Who thats loving it honestly expected a 75~ game and pre-ordered it honestly?

The beta yes. Not the full game. Given the reactions its bumped down the list. Might put the requisite ~15 hours into it once its cheap.

That explains it pretty well.
