Microsofts funny response is back after four months. I missed those. They always makes me laugh.

Same here. And looking at your avatar makes the wait for Spider-Man harder.

Really? Halo Wars 2 is going to push hardware this far into the cycle?

Why wouldnt it?

It might move units but no where near the level NIOH and Horizon will push the ps4.

Not to mention Persona 5 for NA. That's a lot of exclusives already for PS4 in February. Gravity Rush 2 wouldn't even be a month old before PS4 gets more exclusives to the console. It's gonna be difficult for Xbox to steal February for NPD.

Ok.. I've got to know. Why don't sony/ms release numbers? Especially puzzling for sony. Why is it ok to announce 50M sold but not release their NPD numbers?

Maybe NPD owns the copyrights to the numbers, and only allow Sony/Microsoft to give out certain information?

Yes NPD owns the rights to the numbers. And MS and co. pay to get accesss to those numbers on the grounds that they can't share the information. But that's put in place so Sony doesnt go announcing to the world what MS numbers are if MS doesmt want the world to know.

What I don't know tho is why don't Sony share PS numbers. It's their own numbers and they have the right to disclose that information if they want. I mean, as bad as nintendo was getting it they still shared their monthly numbers. So what gives?
