I guess people are waiting for launch day for TLOU. As the launch get closer those numbers should go up...I hope. I thought pre orders for this game would be much better than that. I know I will be there day 1. I do plan on getting Aliens, GTA, and Bioshock too. I will wait for GOW to to hit the bargain bin before I get that one.

finbars754120d ago

I agree but its exclusive so usually preorders go through the roof near launch date.Cant wait looks epic but my heart is set on Bioshock right now.Been waiting for almost 1year 1/2 since its been pushed so much.Good year for gaming as usual lots to look forward to.

aceitman4120d ago

TLOU, will do just like uncharted have long legs..

Riderz13374119d ago (Edited 4119d ago )

TLOU has 150k pre orders...it's doing amazing. Sly Cooper 100k pre orders and GoW has 217k. Great numbers so far for most of the games.

Edit - Uncharted 3 finished with 380k pre orders before launching - http://www.vgchartz.com/pre...

TLOU still has 19 weeks to go and it's already almost half way to 380k.

Myst4119d ago

Well at least Anarchy Reigns is on the list. Would be scary if it weren't already have mine paid for and can't wait for Tuesday!

"These games have seen HUGE adjustments to this weeks chart. Pretty much the top games got huge adjustments up and games like DMC magically entered the chart at #18."

Yoko Taro Passes Respect; Says Stellar Blade Is "Much Better" Than Nier: Automata

Stellar Blade's creative director, Hyung Tae Kim, has also claimed that the game is deeply inspired by Nier: Automata.

shadowhaxor8h ago

I feel like Yoko is downgrading Automata because he has expressed multiple times he'd like to revisit the universe, but Squenix hasn't been keen about it. We know he loves 2B and would love to take her out for another spin, so maybe this is how he gets the company to think about it.

gold_drake6h ago

u do realise that Square made Nier a franchise after Automata right?

Taro is downplaying it cause hes not a snob like most of the directors that think their games are gods gifts to the human race.

he said the same thing when being interviewed during the development of Automata too, that he couldnt have done it without the devs.

hes just a humble guy rly.

shadowhaxor6h ago

I mean, Neir existed before Automata with both OG Niers and Drakenguard. I don't count NieR Replicant, since it's a remake of the OG games. Sure, we have Reincarnation, which is still stuck on mobile devices (quite a damned shame). I just remember Taro saying he'd love to revisit Automata if Square Enix lets him. I do recall there was supposed to be a sequel to Automata, but it wasn't confirmed and I'd imagine it was just for Reincarnation.

Enjoy Taro, he seems like a cool guy, who loves the ladies and is humble. But damn, don't put down one of your masterpieces.

I really liked Automata and cannot wait for Stellar Blade

isarai2h ago

I get he's giving them some credit, but i strongly disagree based on the demo. I honestly don't think any aspect of it feels good, it's not bad, it's just kinda ok but definitely a little jank. Also the souls like formula it is adopting does not help it imo. I was looking forward to this for years, now im just kinda let down honestly 🫤

H91h ago

Man exputer can you stop putting words like that after someone's name, i read Yoko Taro Passes and just went blank

Snookies1239m ago

Same... Awful way to word that title's beginning.

Hereandthere1h ago

Thats because Sony had a heavy hand in funding and developing this game.

purple10118m ago

They sent in XDEV one of their traveling support studios to Korea to lend a hand if I’m not mistaken, Sony pulled out the big guns to help this studio
