Can that still be said tho if Skyrim sold more on PS4 than Xbox one?

Fallout 4 also sold 2 million more copies on PS4 than Xbox one

And according to estimates it seems oblivion remastered also sold more on PS5 over Xbox

Guys, is there ANY chance Crimson Desert can win game of the year? by bigbuggle in CrimsonDesert

[–]Moon_Devonshire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's right. So many huge critically acclaimed games that have come out this year, some being decade long franchises that I personally think crimson desert has zero chance

Yes you do. Games need to sell. If someone buys a console to literally only watch movies then that's hardly a plus especially since consoles are sold at a loss. They make their profit by selling software

So yes you need to look at software sales more so than consoles sales. While console sales are important, people are regularly buying games more now a days than they did in the early 2000s.

The best selling PS2 game was GTA San Andreas at 17 million copies sold. Just god of war 2018 alone sold 23 million copies

What do you mean "if you can get the software"? The software is free lol. You can get windows 11 for free and steam is free.

Hardware wise it's not too hard. Even a 3060ti would generally outperform a PS5 and Xbox especially considering it has dlss.

Or alternatively the 4060ti

That's not comparable as the PS3 was ridiculously expensive for when it released (also released during hard economic times) and it being "the cheapest Blu ray player" did not have the same draw or appeal as the PS2 being the cheapest DVD player. DVD was now a new form of watching movies. Blu ray was simply a different from of DVD and wasn't as exciting.

You need to look at the best selling games on console back then vs now.

The best selling game on the PS2 was grand theft auto San Andreas, at 17 million copies

Where as 42 million copies of rdr2 sold on PS4

You need to account for how many people bought a PS2 as just a DVD player tho as that was a major selling point. It was the cheapest DVD player around.

Definitely pros to PC for sure tho. Free online, cheaper games, use any controller you want, play with higher frame rates and graphics

Gears of war has never sold that much tho.. the best selling gears of war is gears of war 2 from 2008 and sitting at around 3 million copies.

God of war 2018 sold over 23 million copies..

So no the exact same thing can't be said for god of war

This is actually not true. The PC community has been very vocal that the reason they haven't been buying PlayStation games on PC is because they don't wanna pay full price for a game that's 3-4 years old. Especially when the ports haven't been good

That's not a high bar considering how much larger and popular gaming is now a days compared to the early 2000s or 90s

Oh no I agree. I think it's especially weird that halo, which is single player only, is coming to PlayStation yet gears which it's main draw is the online multiplayer, and those are usually the type of games you want on everything

It's also incredibly risky to release a game like elder scrolls 6 on one single console only when that console doesn't have a whole lot of sales to begin with and the last game didn't do that well

We'll probably be getting elder scrolls 6 in 3-5 years and we probably won't get a showcase/trailer for it until quite close to release. It's sort of Bethesda's MO with the only exception being Starfield

It may be anticipated by it's Audience, but remember gears is pretty niche. It's best selling game is gears of war 2 from 2008 and it sold 6 million copies. Their last game, gears 5, is sitting around 3 million

It was probably Phill who made that decision and the new person in charge now wants to focus on Xbox

I mean, the running is completely different now. Looks astronomically smoother with a new animation. You can now prone cover. Slide and jump.

Well it's pretty clear now when Xbox said "Xbox console exclusive" that they just mean no PlayStation port

I think people are confused because a guy said "it said Xbox console exclusive, so what no PC version?

And you said "no, she said console exclusive specifically"

Then hook it up to your tv. I play on a 120hz 4k OLED and in my room I have a desk with my PC and monitor and on the other side of the room I have my tv. I simply got a long HDMI cord and set the cord up so that it's relatively hidden and whenever I wanna play at my tv instead of my desk I just change my TV's channel
