Forums - Sales - UK PS4 and Xbox One exclusive sales comparison in 2014

Great sales for the XBO exclusives, SO was well received by the UK.

^^ yup thanks for that. (this was aimed at dare devil shark)

Also this list shows just how big an effect going mutliplate can have. Some games are surprisngly higher than some big exclusives of the year, like planet vs zombies. Its very clear that EAs dicision to make titanfall on ms platforms was a huge failure of a dicision, and one they surely are regreting

When is that PROMISED free version of Driveclub coming? or are they holding it back now until the sales dry up a bit more?

Bit naughty that isnt it.



Welcome dude. Havent seen you in a while. I guess they are waiting sales to go down.

Well duh drive club, tlou, and lbp3 have been bundled with every system. We saw FH2 overtake DC on the charts before all the bundling. This also taking into account FH2 came or earlier. So overall good stand alone sales fire XB1 exclusives. 

And that changes the fact the PS4 exclusive outperformed the XB1 exclusives, how?



 

The PS5 Exists. 


You should add the beginning of the year exclusive.

Titanfall vs infamous

Because bundles account for 100% of sales. Duuuhh

Even if they did and I ingnored your sarcasm, a sales of a game is a sale of a game. I've never understood this artificial way of reducing a simple fact.

Pretty underhand if you ask me.  MS would get murdered on here and Gaf for acting like that.


Actually they shouldn't release it yet. The game works but connections (syncing lobbies, loading leaderboards etc) still take longer than they should. A game that takes less than 10 seconds to load a race track should not take +20 seconds to sync a lobby, that defeats the whole purpose. They need to continue improving the netcode before releasing the kraken. Otherwise it'll worsen the experience of those who paid for the full game.

What it highlights is that XB1 exclusives sold nearly as much as ps4 exclusives despite the smaller install base and very little bundling compared to ps4. Pretty much exclusive games and accessories is how the companies make money and basically sony gave away a pretty big chunk of their revenue.
