Keep in mind though that this month MS is doing the $175 trade in for X360's and PS3's at Best Buy again so NPD might not be a complete slaughter yet.

I feel bad for microsoft, seeing the Fallout 4 X1 version last and even the PC version ahead of theirs just suck, i mean not only do they haver the marketing rights for Fallout but they are allowing mods with the X1 version, making the X1 version the definitive version of the game on consoles.

if microsoft was acting as they did at the end of the 360 gen i wouldnt care but after this E3 and seeing that they are pushing new IPs and are focused on gamers it sucks to see them like that.

WOW AT MARIO MAKER! o.O

I honestly think the Gears of War ultimate edition will flop...
Halo MCC sold 660k in November NPD... Halo is bigger than Gears, and was 4 games...

I think Gear U.Edition will be lucky if will sell half of those numbers... i will go with under 250k in August NPD...

Cannot say I am surprised Ryng. With due respect, Mario games generally have excellent sales. Mario Maker seems to be primed for great sales due to the fact that it has taken what we love about the franchise and has made it into something we all can craft into our own desires. 

 

Allowing gamers to craft their own games in their own way while retaining creativity and simplicity is something that will always help sales; brand recognition and polish to boot.

 

 

Anyway, to the current topic, seems that Sony is just gaining even more ground day after day. I wonder what the percentages of the Arkham Limited Edition Bundle are going to look like come the weekend.

I think you didn't see the talk with Todd howard after the show right?
They will allow Mods on PS4 too
They said it will be like that....Early 2016 Creation Center for PC > after that Mods for X1 > shortly after that Mods for PS4
And Install base is doing the work

oh, for real? thats really cool i thought it was an X1 exclusive feature :O anyway im still kind of sad for them, those marketing rights seem to be wasted money and that still sucks, but then again the PS4 has almost double the install base so its really hard to outsell that, but the fact that the PC version is also outselling it on Amazon is kind of worrying.

Also, Splatoon has held onto its relative position (again, using the PS cards and Xbox Live cards as references) really well. So it's looking pretty solid so far..
