All software ranks are coming this Thursday. With lots of PS4s sold in June I want to see how Crash did.

Crash should be very high. It and arms will probably be in the top two or three software for the month. Call it a hunch.

Wow! If these are legit, thanks. NPD gets dull without the leaks. PS4 is a freakin' train this year. All the great exclusives helped I'm sure.

Crash bandicoot and Horizon doing good things to ps4 this year. Those sales vs xb1 are insane. The gold ps4 was good too. Despite Switch launch its ahead of it for the year too. What a time to be alive.

You would almost think the Switch is supply constrained and the PS4 had a 2 month head start while being in what is shaping up to be its peak year while the Switch is in its first (truncated) year which is almost never a system's peak.

Xbone is doing dreadful now though.

Edit: To be clear, I'm not downplaying the PS4's sales, they're pretty fantastic.  Just sayin, let's reserve gloating over beating the Switch until it's at least a remotely fair fight.

Wow those PS4 numbers are insanely high compared to the X1. I haven't been paying much attention to the sales lately, but I always thought PS4 and X1 were neck and neck in the US.

Their not really... and its much worse everywhere else in the world.

Haa ha. You're really enjoying this eh?





I get it though. I'm taking some selfies of me with the numbers.

This is likely gonna end up being PS4s peak year, and i doubt next year will see a huge decline considering the games that are gonna release that year, we saw a lot of great japanese exclusives for the PS4 this first six months and im sure they are a big reason as to why it has done so well, but next year we will see some big more mainstream exclusives being released like God of War, Spiderman and hopefully Days Gone (which i hope turns out good) and obviously more Japanese games will be relaeased and im sure at least 3 of them will be great, those being Nino Kuni 2 , SOTC Remake and Trails of Cold Steel 3 which is a franchise kind of similar to the Persona games but without the reputation it has world wide.

Xbox One beats the Wii U once again!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

It feels so good to have numbers again! Jal posting was awesome.

With the actual numbers out now, do you think VGC will use them to correct their own?

Also World Wide, since numbers are now upto June 3, the PS4 should be around 60.4m, not the 59.5m front page shows.
