How can Microsoft refer to the 2016 Xbox One games as a "Line-Up" when there has been only one exclusive game released for the console?

One game is not a line-up Phil Spincer!

I thought R&C would outsell the PS4 version of DS3 well...i eat the crow then.

Am i the only one who waits for the monthly NPDs to chuckle with MS PR?

Theres actually been 2.

Hi NeoGAF. Miss me yet? Well, thank your lovely moderators for treating me and my friend like a piece of shit and making up lies.

I'm done with forums from that incident (it's just not worth it), but I'll help out this month, I guess. Still have permission.

Prefer if you wouldn't post hints about this on Twitter, Zhuge. I wanna see how long it takes for NeoGAF to notice, lol.

Hi Aqua!

Thank you so much!



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Thank you Aqua, much appreciated.

Very close for Xb one and PS4 there. Surprising that Sony didn't come out with PR given PS4 is up YoY. "PS4 continues to see YoY growth...blah blah blah, humbled, blah blah, Ratchet and Clank, Blah blah, Uncharted." The PR almost writes itself.

I guess since 360 is still posting 5 digit numbers NPD will continue to report PS3 sales, but really it's about time to let the last gen die completely.
