IndustryGamers has just received the July NPD video game sales data, and as was predicted, software sales were down again, dipping eight percent to $403.3 million. Hardware, however, driven in part by the Xbox 360 slim and price reductions on older 360 models, climbed 12 percent to $313.8 million. As a result, total industry sales were down just one percent in July, reaching $846.5 million. Year-to-date, total game industry sales in the U.S. are now at $7.51 billion, which is behind 2009's pace by eight percent.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Japanese developer is launches its latest VR epic, futuristic brawler Soul Covenant for Meta Quest, PSVR 2 and PCVR headsets tomorrow.
Games such as Mad Max, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Batman: Arkham Knight desperately deserve a modern-day revisit.
Terrible sales, sports games on top ouch.
Interesting.
A disagree for wondering where Starcraft 2 is? Ah.......K?
PSP is dead seriously, not even 100K. And PS3 demand is shrinking now that the slim effect is gone.
As for the 360 just imagine Aug when the $199 releases. Then Sept with Reach and the bundle.
The gap will likely grow to 7ml by year end with Kinect coming.
@cescgooner88
Will be big but not a huge system seller since there are over 4ml GT PS3 owners already from GT5P. I will sell 500K units max in EU and thats not a lot.
@DuneBuggy
If Kinect takes off it can.
@kartik21
Gears 3 says hi. And by the time the PS3 reaches $199 it will be too late.
Big sales for X360. I did not expect that much. It would be interesting to know the numbers for StarCraft II.
