Forums - Sony - Naughty Dog has sold over 40 million units...

is this sony trying to show people that they are doing okay and not doomed?
(cause they did this with PD and other Sony devs)

ND are among some of the best developers out there, hopefully their great contributions to the industry will continue.

Every sale is well deserved. Naughty Dog are some of the best developers in the industry (I know I'll be pashed for that statement, but whatever).

Don't let Seece see this, or your wish will come true!



Tease.

I'm glad people do research before posting these stories.  That figure is well over three years old and was taken from the company's "About Us" page (data was announced at E306).

 

"6:04 - Eight Days: Lots of guns, lots of gansters, great cinematical lighting effects, massive destruction via a gas tanker. Nothing in this game to challenge the genre of gansters and guns, but certainly a graphical update to a game type that we're all comfortable with. "Next up is a brand new game from a developer who since their first game in 1996 has shipped over 40 million units of software. I'm gonna let the video speak for itself" Shows untitled Naughty Dog game."

"To date, Naughty Dog has sold over 40 million units, totalling over USD $1 billion in sales."

Good game PS3center.

Wait, so this figure was from 2006,so that makes the 36,48 mil figure from the VGC data even more further from the actual number?

Yeah that's what I'm also wondering. Some games are definitly undertracked if that's the case.

Maybe Jak 1/2/3. I still see them on shelves selling for 9,99$.

I was in town the other day trying to egt the Jak games for my brother because he keeps taking mine and guess what. The was nowhere to be found. I checked online like ebay. Couldnt find it. Oh i should check amazon



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

Wonder why they left Jak and daxter and Crash bandicoot..



 

 

Take my love, take my land..

Naughty Dog along with Bethesda, Squaresoft, and Kojima Production are few companies that always made fantastic games.

I think dropping Crash Bandicoot was an epic fail on their part. Same with Insomniac dropping Spyro. Jak & Daxter are being made for the PSP right now but I still have hope that they'll go to the PS3 soon. They know what happen to their franchises when they sell them off now at least and I think that's enough motivation to keep the IP's within Naughty Dog (for console gaming at least).

I think they want to keep their main series only for one console.

Crash Bandicoot - PS1

Jak and Daxter - PS2

Uncharted - PS3

How is it an epic fail? They dropped Crash because they didn't think they could do much more with the series, and they didn't want to work on the same series for the rest of their lives *cough*Kojima*cough*. Naughty Dog isn't in the industry just for the money.



^^Crash Bandicoot made them most of the money, also it was one of the rare western games to sell over 1 million in Japan



Also why did Sony sell away Crash Bandicoot? It would be great to see ND make another Crash game.
