Maybe slightly.  But EA seems to be more interested in walking the line and not pissing anyone off.  The Madden thing is more due to an agreement between MS and the NFL, iirc.  But I wouldn't be surprised if EA starts to drift more and more to Sony in ways their current deals allow.


Yeah, EA is inbetween them. MS has FIFA and Madden, Sony has (this year) Battlefield and Battlefront. I guess it would be more correct to say that EA is on neithers side.


Indeed Teeqoz-san. EA really does not have a side. The only objective they are after is which of their franchises will sell better on the platforms. Personally, I thought that Fifa was better on PlayStation platforms, but I suppose I was mistaken. Either way, EA simply wants to generate the most profit from both by throwings their franchies that could potentially have a bigger fanbase than the other. I am certain that additional sales would be more than applicable in this scenario.

Hehe. Apparently the DVD player theory didn't pan out?

That's what's so odd. If we discount the DVD theory then what is left? The PS4 Fools edition has been sitting at 50 or above all this month so far. How can it possibly be at 100? It's currently at 41.

#6: PS4 Batman bundle
#7: XB1 Guardians bundle
#21: XB1 Halo bundle
#30: PS4 Destiny Bundle
#41: PS4 Fools edition
#64: WiiU Deluxe
#67: XB1 standard
#85: XB1 Halo 1TB

And yet the two XB1 bundles that have been below it all week are above it in the monthly.

Now is starting to be scary... where the fuck are Madden and Gears bundle? I mean... it's August...

#236 XBO Madden
#1,202 XBO Gears: Ultimate

I'm not THAT surprised about Gears ( i knew it was not going to be a sistem seller, even if i expect way better), but Madden bundle is doing really bad...

How do you access numbers beyond 100?

You missed my posts that could explain this odd situation:

If the objects ranked higher than PS4 have a big turnover (if they stay not long in the top 100) but at the same time sell more than PS4 sell in the whole month then there could be 200 objects that sold better overall during the whole month than the PS4 "fools edition".

But this month is only 9 days old and for those 9 days the PS4 has been at around 50 and the XB1 1TB bundle as been below that. How can the PS4 fools edition sell less and be above the XB1 1TB ALL this month?

If you scroll down to the product details, it shows it's rank also.
