This is what is going to happen when PS4 gets the 50%:


















































Nothing.

More marketshare = More investing in games

What is it that causes more investment in games for a platform, in your opinion?

It'll hit the 50% market share, though I have doubts for 60%..

When the ps4 has the 60% of marketshare it will have all the multiplatforms... oh well this is happening today, and the past year. The same happens to XBO with the 28% of the market, it will not change. Also we have to think that ps4 is not the center of the universe in this matter, because if you count ps4, xbo. wiiu and PC, then suddlenly that marketshare number is not as impressive and Ps4 not as relevant  (30% maybe?) And of course, when a company gets everything doing... mostly nothing, with a 70% of marketshare they would need to do absolutely 0. But when a company is fighting for it the chances of the company making great things on its console to make people buy it are higher. When everybody buys the console because is the new trend, and we all have to buy it, then they need to make no effort whatsoever. 



I'm glad you can admit sales is in your blood. You are inheriting your birthright, passed down by your PS2 forefathers. You would melt down a PS4 into hot liquid, and inject it into your bloodstream if you knew it wouldn't seriously harm your health :P.

It was a great feeling. I shall taste sweet sweet sales someday in the future.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
