lets hope all those new vota owners buy severed. suprised the ps4.5 rumours didnt stop the sales :) im sure everyone is getting ready for uncharted

I keep seeing people say that the PS4.5 rumours might collapse the sales, or that they're surprised that it hasn't happened already.

But they're forgetting that the mass market doesn't care about some rumours about a more powerful PS4 coming out sometime in the future. Those people want a PS4, and they want it now. The people discussing the PS4.5 on the internet, people wanting to hold out on purchasing a PS4, and people getting upset about the whole thing, are actually in the minority.

Yeah, I don't think many realize that the vast majority of people who buy and play consoles and console games don't spend any time trawling game sites or tech sites, and even if they do don't pay much attention to the rumors those sites spread. People like us that post on forums are enthusiasts, generally representing a few percent of the population at large, if that. That's why I seriously doubt Sony or MS are going to announce their upgraded systems until a few months before launch, as the drop in sales between rumors and an official announcement (with accompanying mainstream news coverage and advertising) is going to be quite large. 

And I can vouch that Ratchet & Clank is indeed an awesome game, so enjoy it Gribble.

I'm surprised R&C is still in the top 10, even only being available from 3rd party at above MSRP. QB dropped fast, already at #61.

They are pretty cheap, but it's really strange to see them on the top spots nowdays XD

Final Fantasy IX and Origins are also #193 and #215

Dat PSOne JRPG swag knows no equal.  It funny to think that some of these games are older than some of our community members!

I went looking for LoD to see if it was also joining the PS1 JRPG bandwagon... but opposed to those at 20$ it's at $100, so it's really low, lol.

Yup, those games are older than some people around here.

$100!?! Man!

People just keep buying the CoD bundle, ffs Sony, push yours.
Uncharted will do great, but that bundle is so damn low.

Is the era for wanting to pay $400 for a PS4 over?

Those are good games, i don't know about Chrono Cross, but Final Fantasy Anthology is much older than me, the "Final Fantasy Anthology", as i remember, have Final Fantasy 6, and or (i cant remember for sure) Chrono Trigger.
