Looks like people are being upset yet again. Can't say anything good about Xbox now can we. Microsoft has done a lot for us lately. 4k blu ray, hdr gaming, gears, forza horizon 3, recore, quantum break, dead rising 4,killer instinct season 3. However, I guess people just hate on it for whatever reason.

As a sony fan, I agree.  Nobody can deny that MS is really trying.

A lot of people are doing just that.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

They know MS is really trying, they just wouldn't admit it

Again, who and where? I've genuinely curious. I've seen a lot of complaints about MS bashing in this thread without seeing much actual bashing.

Apparently " a lot of people" said that the xbox wasn't even going to win an NPD this year. I'd love to know who said that and the context of it. They have won two in 2014 and 2015, so assuming they wouldn't this year would be absurd.

I say "would be" because I doubt it actually happened. I'm guessing at most person (who was probably banned for being extremely biased) said it - and that suddenly become " a lot of people".

"A Lot of People"  may be the  actual name of a single person.

This thread is dead without numbers. Hopefully someone comes to the rescue soon, because if we don't get any more U.S. hardware numbers then most of the reason I even have for coming here goes away. Can't talk sales without any data, after all. I still have a project that needs finishing, but it will never be complete without the necessary numbers. I miss the days before NPD started treating sales numbers as something that deserves as much secrecy as nuclear launch codes. For years we got numbers every month, readily available at numerous websites. Now it almost seems as if they believe that we plebians aren't worthy of knowing something like how much a game console sold. No, that's valuable information, and only those with deep enough pocketbooks are worthy of it. Meanwhile, in Japan we get hardware and top 20 software numbers every week free of charge. NPD really, really needs a competitor that can gather reliable sales figures and publish them publicly.

So, it just so happens that I have access to some numbers this month.

 

1+1=2

0.99999.....=1

3.14159265358979323846264338

....What? You asked for numbers. I gave you some!

“Thanks to our fans and their excitement for new Xbox One games and the recently launched Xbox One S — which is the only console available this holiday with built-in UHD 4K Blu-ray,

More like, for the next 3-4 years. xD

Scorpio launches in like 14 months



Sony must be delighted with how low key this NPD has been. I've never seen such a quiet NPD thread on gaf.
