Mario Kart 8*
Grand Theft Auto V
Call of Duty: WWII

Monster Hunter: World
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege
A Way Out^

Sea Of Thieves
Kirby Star Allies*
FIFA 18^
I'd like to point out how Lemmings were bragging about Sea of Thieves March NPD sales claiming that the high initial were something other than game starved fans jumping the gun to play a game that was hyped up by MS for 4 years...
I pointed out this fact and some triggered xthots were trying to argue that I was trying to make excuses for Sea of Thieves coming in 2nd.
So I challenged them to bet if they believed Sea of Thieves would be ahead of MLB The Show on on next months NDP, not God of War but MLB...

Looks like a healthy game industry to me and it looks like everyone is doing pretty well which is good for our industry. Still laugh at the fanboys making up excuses for SoT selling well. You people are pathetic.
You think those are "excuses"?
Ok, Forget God of War for a moment...
SoT narrowly outsold lightly marketed MLB 18 The Show this month, if those are excuses, are you confident that SoT will still be ahead of MLB 18 on next months charts?
Again, not asking if you believe SoT come out ahead of God of War, but yearly released MLB the show?

No one took the bet but I'd like to point out the results.........
MLB The Show 19 STAYED at #3 from last month (talk about staying power)
.
.
.
.
Sea of Thieves dropped from #2 to..................#18!
Looks like both Sony's MP+SP games >>>>>> Any MS MP games.
For all that talk about how singleplayer games are "just a few hours and done with it", I would bet that most people played Sea of Thieves a lot less hours than people who played God of War. Just goes to show that people will stay engaged with a good game or even a second playthrough than people who want to kill the same skeleton for hours on end because OMGOnlineGame.

The thing is, Sony ALSO has more higher quality MP games than MS so the entire argument is a wash.
MLB The Show...IS a MP focused game! > Sea of Thieves+State of Decay 2
MLB The Show beats out any MP game MS put out this year...in Sales and Score.
Xbox really isn't superior in any game related area this gen outside of "arcade" racing. (Sony still has the best exclusive Sim this gen)

I love how Lems stamp their feet when you suggest that GT is better than Forza, but for their steering model and racing AI, a lot of hardcore driving game oriented circles leave Forza out of the running completely opting for other cross platform/pc centric titles instead.
Nice to see The Show still has an audience. Congrats on the DS4. Definitely my favorite controller. Looking forward to see what they can do to improve DS5.
Also, nice to see some Nintendo games making it on the chart.
And while I'm wearing my sand kicking boots... It's a little weird that people think MS is splashing money on the XBox this year considering they are subsidizing their E3 presence with a company owned property rather than participating in the show itself. MS only presence on E3s grounds will be via a Mixer booth.
Did you also realized how Sea Of Thieves break records for MS and niche game like MLB 18 outsold Sea Of Thieves?
I noticed that lol. I remember lems saying SP games were "one and done" and people would be playing and talking about SoT for a long time because it was MP. ? Only for it to completely flop out of the top 17 a month later, and get rekt by MLB a niche sports game!
This whole thread must be extremely painful for lems to see how wrong they were with everything. They haven't been right about anything this gen and this whole thread is a pimp slap into reality for them.
not much of an achievement, there were two billion less people in 1995, that's roughly 25 percent more people today.
Not to mention gaming got more popular in general, and cheaper too.
The price of games has hardly increased, a super nintendo game was 50 bucks back in the day, now it's 55-60, 50 bucks back in 1995 is the same as 84$ now.
Dat damage control. By the same logic you're using the Xbone is a monumental flop of epic proportions since it's doing Gamecube era numbers in 2018.
what damage control, who cares about amount of sales apart from stock holders lmao.

This is the biggest goalpost move I've ever seen here.
Now the size of world population counts? Where does that put Xbox one then?
Lol
of course it counts, how old are you? 12? what's so hard to understand about basic mathematics.
This once and for all puts to rest the "exclusives don't matter" argument. What further proof could anybody possibly need?
It took 18 months to get the first real big exclusive (Bloodborne)...
By that point they were already way ahead, the snowball effect of the generation had already begun.
Coupled with cheaper prices (for a long time) and far better world-wide brand power....
Exclusives help, but it's not why the gap is so large.
We all saw what you tried here!!!
But a nice try though.
Killzone, Infamous and knack are big hits?
yea right....
Infamous Second Son and The Last of Us Remastered both sold a Million at launch in 2014.
Don't know what you think but MS didn't have any REAL BIG block busters until Halo 5...guess what year that came out genius? Yeah 2015!
Fact check time for the ignorant xthot obsessing over PS4's library while forgetting that MS's line up has ALWAYS been worse by comparison.
2014 xbox games
Titanfall
Sunset Overdrive
Forza Horizon 2

Infamous Second Son
Little Big Planet 3
The Last of Us Remastered
MLB The Show 14
Final Fantasy XIV Online A Realm Reborn
You don't have a point bringing up Bloodborne being a 2015 game. TLOU and Infamous had more hype behind them any of the games on xbox in 2014 outside if the MCC which was released in a barely playable state.
In 2015 X1 had Halo 5 but was overshadowed by Bloodborne and a better overall line up of games on PS4.

? You clearly do otherwise you wouldn’t be damage controlling in this thread.
@Archangel3371: I'm on the same boat, I wonder what the list would look like if all sales are taken into account. I'm one of those Switch owners who buys no cartridges and I know I'm not the only one, I'd probably do the same had I owned a PS4.

Next argument?
Oh that suddenly makes Infamous an excellent game then, neato.... and a remaster!
Again, I couldn't care less about Xbox, your obsession is laughable.
Why don't you compare to Switch's 1st year eh? oh right.... you know why... can't win against PC or Switch? keeps kicking the Xbox.
Why is FFXIV on your list?
Was Halo 5 overshadowed by Bloodborne? evidence? metrics?
I can't wait to see how you twist this one, don't forget to include a desperate meme picture to solidify your amazing debating skills!
Failing that, you don't have to worry, Your cheerleader Re-Cloud will save the day by approving of your drivel.
Pay attention to the release date and maybe learn to read better.
You're real clueless about what PS4 games are available and when but still trying to make arguments about what it dose and doesn't have. Just like a lem.
2. Bloodborne was getting nominated for GOTY awards all over the industry and critically rated much better than Halo 5. Halo 5 was the mainstream game but was overshadowed by Bloodborne in the media.
What else fake hermit?
Do you care about xbox or not because you sure are in you feelings about defending xbox when NO ONE in this thread is talking about PC LMAO!
But I see you're heavily invested in this with your feeling on your shoulder Mr Hermit.
@Jacanuk: I ask because people keep saying it "bombed" but it couldn't have done THAT poorly if this is true
Labo didn´t bomb
Considering it´s the most sold Switch software. And 4th on the software combined sales. Which is really surprising considering it´s only cardboard and it cost 69.99$ and 79.99$ for the Robot kit.
It may be considered mediocre sales in Japan with only 119.000 units sold.
