That is mind blowing. This game is the success story of the generation.

It is? I think something like Horizon might be. 

Horizon isn't doing these kinds of numbers. It's a good game, but this is not only an achievement for Sony exclusives, but superhero and Spider-Man titles as well. The report said that this game alone had a more successful first month than all Spider-Man titles combined.

New IP vs a 60 year old property. I think Horizon is more impressive.

-------------------------------------------------------- My Thoughts:

 

In just 3 weeks of sales and Spiderman becomes the 3rd best selling game of the year.
It apparently beat out NBA 2K19 by a HUGE margin.

Also dispite DQ11 being on PC/PS4... and not a nintendo console (3ds or Switch) (for NPD), it MORE than doubled DQIX sales.
So thats good news, future DQ will probably keep coming to the west and release on playstation and PC.

Seems very impressive on Spider-Man part and a pretty big boost for PS4 HW.

I can't believe we live in an age where we are arguing which is more impressive between a game developed by Geurilla and a spiderman exclusive to playstation. Sony really weren't lying when they said greatness awaits.

And Nintendo yet need to release two its biggest games of year.

Mario Kart 8, Zelda BOTW, and Mario Odyessy are just killing it with their legs.

in just 3 weeks, thats really very impressive! Spiderman and God of War are the perfect team ^^

And great for Dragon Quest Xi - its the best JRPG after Persona 5 in the last years. The next big JRPG is Kingdom Hearts 3 in january

Nice to see how happy the people are about the Spiderman game :) Call of Duty and the PS4 bundles with Red Dead Redemption 2 will continue to push the PlayStation 4 hard. For us players a dream-year :)
