Can PS4 break the 1 million %?

only if the "previous sales rank" drops below 10001, because that's how these percentages are calculated

Great.



Hope you guys realize Black Friday is more of an in store retail thing (Walmart, Target, etc). Usually within the first hour as well which as i said earlier this month, could very well come down to who has more stock as i expect both will be selling out.

You guys put way too much faith in hourly ratings on amazon and its been like this all month. Any time one or the other passes each other its snarky remarks from either group, some based off scams while others legit. Just wait for VGC and NPD numbers and then make all the snarky remarks you guys want but Amazon is not the be all end all retailer, especially hourly. Its a good indication of what is going on, but as i said before, Black Friday in specific is more of an in person retailer thing (mostly in the first hour). Black Friday is about first comes, first serve where it reaches the mass audience.  Amazon will be a tiny fraction of what places like Walmart sells on Black Friday




       

Yeah I like to see Worldwide chart from vgchartz. Showing PS4 domination is always good....

OK we'll stop having fun and celebrating like others did for the whole of November so far. We'll just act all boring just for you!

Can you expand on this please - "everyone knows that PS4 got a great next half"?



I mean next year first half has many exclusives and big 3rd party games.

GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.

The next hour has updated. It's still the same except the PS4 standalone has move up to #77. Can't beleive people are buying that when you can get a PS4 for the same price with 2 games.

I guess games really don't sell PS4's, it sells itself.

Shadow of Mordor is a serious winner on Amazon this Black Friday. Couldn't have happened to a better game.

$20 price tag is doing wonders for inFamous Second Son, which is great for the game and great for prospects of a sequel.

Large drop incoming for Dragon Age I feel. Full price game at a time when everyone is hunting for a bargain.

How do you know that I: SS is doing well? I want it to sell well, but at this point after its release I don't think it will get a huge boost.

Currently 14th in the hourly best sellers which makes it the best selling exclusive, better than recent releases such as Driveclub, LBP3, Sunset Overdrive and Halo.

Nope, game sells consoles and its very known fact that PS4 has many exclusives planned for next year and particularly Bloodborne in 4 months(Order 1886 in 3 months) and they can expect more from PS experience event in a week. PS4 has word of mouth that its the best place to play games including exclusives and better 3rd party(in holidays) next year(atleast for first half of next year).
