Yeah, it's as stacked a quarter as there has ever been.

DS3 isn't there yet and no date has been announced, just that it is going. Maybe wait till Feb and just get Anthem then too ;)

I'm coming off RDR2 and AC Odyssey so I'm extremely keen for a light, brainless platformer. I'm sure I'm gonna love it.

Not really very interested in Darksiders but it shows that EA is going after other devs to support their service.

Will play this some time next year

Nah, but first time since I played them on psone (meaning i never revisited them after I played them then, unlike Crash which I played many times through the generations)

Finally finished AC Odyssey. Spyro up next

I'm not evening reading a word of your convo with Gouk, just what I've seen you post in the past and what I asked you. Which was a very clear, 1. PS4 2. Xbox One 3. Switch (for Nov/Dec) and you listed the reasons I mentioned as you why. For that to happen Xbox had to beat Switch in Nov, by a decent margin too, cause Smash is defs beating Xbox (and probably even PS4) in Dec. The fact that Switch beat Xbox in Nov means you're 100% wrong on the Nov/Dec thing, the only debate now is if PS4 or Switch is no.1. I'm saying just take the L, don't be a pussy and turn this into a 'oh it was close', caus

You're not only a sore loser but don't have the balls to stick to a prediction. Pussying out with single post that has a maybe about the possibility of a hardware sale (Which no fucking shit it was gonna have so form of sale for BF, but it had by a country mile the worst one and still substantially more expensive than the others) amid the hundreds of other ones saying the opposite. It's amazing how every NPD thread turns out the same month after month Yet you'll go into Dec with an imaginary perfect record in your deluded mind. Which is fine, more fun for us

You're embarrassing yourself man. Everything you said indicated a prediction for an OBVIOUS Xbox win (over switch). In sporting terms it's like you predicted a 30 point win in NFL game and now come here and say shit like you're feeling vindicated cause you lost by a field goal We all saw you go on and on and on about why you were certain Switch would be last, especially in Nov. BF and Nov in general is all about sales and price point, there was no doubt that PS4 and Xbox would sell given the crazy deals that they had, you mentioned continuously a litany of reasons Switch wouldn't do the same

Dyno now pretending to be happy that it sold so close to Switch when before he was all about there being no doubt Switch will come last, 'Nov is all about price and sales', 'Switch is no longer a hot holiday item', etc, etc. For this prediction to come true Xbox HAD to be above Switch (by a decent margin too) in Nov, because Dec doesn't have BF so price is less relevant and Switch has Smash. If anything it's possible Switch becomes no.1 for Nov/Dec now.

Should've been more specific, I'm talking GT v Forza. Has and always be the best simulation between it and Forza. There was a time that GT was also the better game but not anymore.

For an actual driving simulation GT has and always will be the best, by quite a large margin too. If that's what you're into then it's a no contest. Forza is more arcadey, even it's Motorsport franchise and more gamey, which for me nowadays in more important (fun).

TGA this year was basically a Nintendo direct. More Nintendo representation than anyone else and no one had less content than Sony....

Just to get an idea of the growth of this: 2014: 1.9m 2015: 2.3m 2016: 3.8m 2017: 11.5m 2018: 26m

That footage looks remarkable.

Yes. QD games were literally the only games in their genre last gen and this gen only Until Dawn and Detroit exist... that's niche. Also, that's what you choose to focus on? How about replying to the actual news.

This thread delivered.

2m in just over 6 months. Nice Success for Quantic Dream given it is such a niche title.

and it just gets better and better as you obtain more abilities. Game is superb.

Not quite, which isn't saying much because DS level of success and dominance was just insane. Also the landscape in Japan is different now as opposed to back then. Mobile has taken a massive portion of the gaming market, nothing will come close to DS again.

Interested to see what kind of numbers KH3 pulls but outside of a MHW sequel there really isn't too much that PS4 has that can be such a gigantic hit in Japan, which is fine, they shifted priorities to other regions which has been a massive success for them also. In Japan you need portability, that's more important than anything. Outside of that conversation though It is amazing how well the Switch is doing. It's install base is still small in hindsight and it already has the best selling entries in multiple franchises.

What

That's pretty bad.
