"How dare they set up a plan for a game I'm interested in to have a much better shot at becoming a franchise I'll love! They've betrayed me!"

So dumb. Unbelievable lol.

How about letting the game come out before Sequel/Franchise talk.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Ehi, look over there! In the sky!
Is it a bird? Is it an airplane?
No, it's the joke flying over your head!

Spoiler

Jokes aside, for the 100th time: bundles aren't included in software charts

i know that, i'm not sure where i suggested otherwise

 

[Piggus]

I don't get it... even the most clueless investor shareholder wouldn't care about hours. Is that number directly tied to a revenue formula? Is total hours part of their success measures?

I'm probably wrong on this, but I would imagine serious investors have access to actual useful data.

Its still doing well just not ps4 well lol

I don't think that statement is for shareholders. MS shareholders don't really care about Xbox as a whole. I don't really know who that statement is for though. Fans maybe?

 

[Floody]

I don't know why people assumed that some days ago.

It was first (officially) shown at a MS conference (E3 I think, though not sure), since then it's been shown at 2 Sony conferences and had an exclusive alpha.

Guess this month will take the #9 spot.

I expect Xbox one sales to fall behind 360 sales this year.

Isn't it behind PS3 already? I'm not even talking worldwide either.

You've been really predictable today.

I can't breathe XD

Xbox One doing like this in January in the US, just imagine WW.

This Console... oh man.

It's supposedly doing well in Southern markets, like Brazil and Mexico.

Would definitely love some LTD numbers for those countries.

 

[notaskwid]

I'm probably wrong on this, but I would imagine serious investors have access to actual useful data.

If you are some big shot looking to pour millions of dollars in a company, sure. But if you are a small time investor you'll have to guide yourself with the information companies provide you.

 

[Captain Tuttle]

There's no end to Minecraft, it's ridiculous

 

[Bgamer90]

???

Not sure what you mean. Quantum Break being on PC too is going to cause more sales in comparison to if it was Xbox One only. That creates a better chance of a sequel.

Also, most AAA games are made with possible sequels in mind since making them are (obviously) risky these days so I'm really not sure why you felt the need to reply to what I said with that.

Hmm, I guess the this January will most likely end up in this chart. 200K is still a decent number, though, if it really is north of that.

Haha, perfection, man! XD

 

[Purest 78]

Did you even understand the point of his post?

Yes But quite Frankly the game could suck and bomb. It's far to early to talk about Sequels or it being a Franchise.

 

[demigod]

I wouldn't base the year as a whole on January sales.

What do they have again that's not coming to PC? Unless they have a slim and a perma pricedrop, they're going to sell even less than 2015.

The Division in March, Dark Souls III in April, Homefront in May (maybe Mirrors Edge/Doom too, I'm not entirely sure tbh)

Those are not system sellers, don't expect them to win a month in 2016 unless a pricedrop occurs.

Oh, so you did miss the point. I suggest you read his response.

This looks to be the worst January for XBO, so better than that I think.

Big in Brazil and Mexico is like a rock band being big in Japan.

Well, January is one of the worse month of the year. So, i don't think is bad for PS4 be in that TOP 10.

January 2014 was insane, but because PS4 was sold out in December 2013 and they sold a lot of console in January.

 

[Hoje0308]

What do they have again that's not coming to PC? Unless they have a slim and a perma pricedrop, they're going to sell even less than 2015.

Because the people looking to pick up a $350 console are going to go, "Oh, I'll just pick up an I7 and a 980ti instead" right?

 

[Tubie]

Totally forgot today was NPD day!

Wow at GTAV... that's just incredible.

The rest of the list looks normal. I'm really glad Fallout 4 and Battlefront have continued to sell well.

 

[Complicated]

Tweeting to congratulate a corporation on hardware sales. Some people are just on an entirely different level.

 

[Bluekaveli]

At this point, we're never getting gta vi. Fuck.

You can have your GTA6 when I get my Red Dead 3, okay meester?

"In January, the total number of hours spent gaming in one month on Xbox One worldwide surpassed 1 billion hours."

 

[Piggus]

I bet it's actually further along than we think. They only really need one studio working on GTAO content.

 

[Welfare]

Shouldn't have been banned... but what can you do?

 

[RoKKeR]

The CrapGamer thing is one of the funniest meltdowns I think I have ever seen. This is serious business, people.

Anyways, GTA and Minecraft train never stops.

How was it suppose to do in the U.S. in a slow month like January?

Not me who said it but I kind of expected higher. Judging by the prediction thread most did. It's up there with some of the worst months ever It's even worse when you realize we're talking about $499 for some of these numbers. That's if the rumour of worst Jan is true.

1) 77,000 (May 2014)
2) 115,000 ( April 2014)
3) 131,000 (July 2014)
4) 139,000 (May 2015)
5) 141,000 (Jan 2014)
6) 150,000 (Jan 2015)
7) 160,000 (Aug 2014)
8) 168,000 (Oct 2014)
9) 187,000 (Apr 2015)
10) 189,000 (Jul 2015)

I never knew they had two teams doing that. That's pretty rad.

 

[TheSpecialOne]

So, Sony has that marketing deal with COD now, but is still selling better on XB1?

Interesting.

Every thread smh.

Yep, as long as it's up YoY (but we unfortunately don't know Sony's definition of impressive), it sounds good to me. It definitely wasn't going to match the sales of January 2014.

 

[demigod]

Because the people looking to pick up a $350 console are going to go, "Oh, I'll just pick up an I7 and a 980ti instead" right?

No, but that's -1 sale for people who has a capable PC. Also you don't need a 980ti to play it, lol.

 

[Hellsing321]

I don't see how Sony can compete with Xbox's MAUs. I mean 1 billion is a big number.
