I know this thread is NPD specific but I can't help but get the feeling that Sony is chasing a worldwide sales figure to release soon (Possibly PSX). What is that figure? ...I don't know. 30m? 35m?
But I think it will be made a big deal of soon.

27m - 27.2m would be my guess.

edit: Sorry, I was thinking you meant the PGW.

PSX is december right? If so, ps4>30m is a garanty. 



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Yeah, 30m sounds about right to me. Perhaps 31m because I can't remember if PSX is at the start or the end of Dec.

Yep PSX and 30m+ sold announcement makes sense.

November is going to be nuts for PS4.

What? With christmas the gap between the start of the onth and the end of the month should be at least 2m. I actually see over 3m on december alone.

Please, explain your point. Have you been here in the last 2 years? 

May be this particular SW add was nothing diffente from every other hollyday add that just include the particular bundle at the end.

However, this is the behevour Sony´s droids have with every PS4 bundle. It´s always the talking how a particular bundle AND co-marketing will push PS4 far above the competition. 

It wouldn´t be that evident if PS4 had real exclusives or timed exclusives every hollyday.

And yes, it pisses me off how people are supper ok with Sony PR BS when there are duzens of threads on how Titanfall (p. ex) is not a real exclusive. Or worst every second part IP also is just a money grab and not a real investiment.

Regarding Titanfall, you're surprised that people frown on a deal that even Respawn themselves were not happy with?

They got stabbed in the back by their publisher (EA) who made a deal with Microsoft that they didn't want.
So you don't have to try very hard to dislike this deal. Doesn't matter what console it's on.

Obviously the deal was valid, but EA really should have reached out to the developer.   That really just seems so disrespectful.

While I agree with you about being disrespectful...

The Publisher has the right to sell the game to anybody they want... developers have nothing to do against that after they sign a contract with publisher.
