Sony Computer Entertainment just sent its own comment on the latest North American NPD figures that saw the PS4 beat its rival, the Xbox One, for a margin that was probably narrower than its previous months due to a strong June for Microsoft’s console.
Guy Longworth, SVP PlayStation Marketing, is leaving Playstation after four years.
Well, Microsoft executives and Sony executives do have reason to leave for better future. It just the way of life.
I don't know. But just like Jack Tretton left Sony, Shaun take his role. Same goes with other people, i won't give you the name. You will understand eventually.
Exactly.
@edmix: "I wonder what this spells for Sony. "
Ummmm.... Nothing??
It's a marketing position. Those positions come and go all the time. There are companies that hire entire marketing teams for product campaigns and once the initial push for the product is over, they dissolve the team and go on to the next project.
Not everything is doom and gloom like you're implying with that "I wonder what this spells for Sony" nonsense.
Let's see. For the most part, 95.498% of PS's best advertising / marketing in the past eight years came as soon as, and around the time of, the PS4 release. Before then, marketing for The Last Of Us was pretty good, especially when they made the obvious move of launching the first legitimate? trailer for TLOU during a "The Walking Dead" commercial break. I can't remember if "The Talking Dead" hyped it, but most likely they did. I remember Chandler Riggs tweeting he was excited to finally play it when it was about to release too.
Even though Left 4 Dead was more of a OMG ZOMBIES! game, same thing for Dead Rising and all those other over-hyped games were more suited for teenagers and people under 30, I was happy to see TWD be apart of TLOU marketing. I remember that first trailer being shown during a commercial break at the time of a TWD episode. It only got better with how awesome PS4 commercials became, but I am 100% sure that this guy "Longworth" wasn't the genius behind the genius ideas of those SIMPLY EFFING AMAZING PS4 commercials. Maybe he gave the green light for such ideas. But after all of the thinking about, where's the advertising for anything hardcore PS gamer, and then seeing what they did with TLOU followed by PS4 marketing. There's no damn excuse PS couldn't have been as good at marketing as Xbox was during their first and final years as the reigning "place to play" years.
Let's just hope this keeps PS keeping up with the likes of commercials that Bloodborne, Infamous, The Order, always sorta Uncharted since #2. But, the point is, let's hope PS's marketing team has learned to advertise instead of only letting word of mouth do the job for them. It was disappointing in the early years of the PS3 unlike PS1 or PS2's advertising years.

COME ON, RIDGE RACERRR!!!!
Posted by Guy Longworth on Sep 17, 2015 // Senior Vice President, PlayStation Brand Marketing, SCEA:
Hello, PlayStation Nation! I’ve got some big news — together with our friends at Taco Bell we’ve put together something special for gamers in the United States. Only at Taco Bell and only during the promotional period, fans will have the chance to win a Limited Edition Gold PlayStation 4 Bundle every 10 minutes! This promotion begins on September 24th and ends on November 4th. If you do the math, this comes out to approximately 6,000 Limited Edition Gold PS4 Bundles.
Whether you like the look or not, gold is quite the fitting color for what the PS4 has done for Sony in less than two years
Now why can't Sony sell a sexy console like that?
Instead we get a cheap looking Darth Vader stickered PS4.
If you only knew how lucky you are lol.. closest fast food to me is 63 miles away = (
First thing I do when I hit town is hit up the Bell or Filibertos, that said the gold ps4 does not look that great. The ones they showed at TGS look better.
The food definitely!, I tried taco bell in the US the last time I was working there. It felt like I was eating stationary!!
Gold PS4, while a little blingy for my tastes, would definitely stick out like a turd in a punch bowl when you slipped it into your entertainment centre. Black is classic, always looks in place, unless its in a affluent area at night in the US... different story then!
haha nothing says classy like faux gold paint and fast food... especially when the idea is to cram that food down your throat as fast as possible to win said fake gold item. this has america written all over it.
If I won it I wouldn't even open it. I'd sell it for big money many years from now.
I spent over $100 on Taco Bell trying to win a PS4. I'm not going through that again lol. Learnt my lesson. I end up buying a PS4 anyway.
LOL!
You should have known better. The chances of you winning is pretty slim. Taco Bell/Sony gotta make money somehow.
I worked at an Asian restaurant that was next to Taco Bell, I made good friends with the people there and when sony did something similar for the white destiny bundle the guys at Taco bell would steal the codes that came in the boxes and use them. And I know for sure that one of the "cooks" there won a White PS4. Don't do it guys, I know this looks amazing but it's better than wasting your money on false hopes. The workers are just going to steal them most likely.
I wouldn't say no to the PS4, but I'm not really a fan of the food. Good luck to the entrants.
You don't have to buy anything from Taco Bell. You can just send in postcards for codes.
It should be a guacamole green/puke green console (color name depending on how you feel about Taco Bell ;) )
I think someone already has that colour on lockdown. I quite like the gold one though...but I don't eat there, so ebay is my friend! ;^)
Looks pretty spiffy. lucky for those in the market for a PS4. I already have two or else I would get this.
Article: "there is a winner every 10 minutes" damn. taco bell it is then. just don't eat there too many time.
Where's that crazyChris guy at or whatever his name is. He's going to like this bundle.
I haven't eaten at Taco Bell in about 15 years, but I might have to go back one last time for this.
Now this ps4 would be even more awesome as a Star Wars battlefront console so suit c3po on the console. Either way a beautiful machine
Me looking at my stomach like "You better man up son we're eating those diarrhea munchies
I would like a Taco Bell here in my country, lol.
And the console looks beautiful.
I generally don't like gold. A gold watch looks cheap and tacky to me, even if it is a wonderfully crafted mechanical wonder.
However I like this black and gold PS4. Reminds me of an old Toyota Corolla Twin Cam or something that also came in black and gold.
Im not reallying liking the Gold. Sony needs to come with better special edition designs. Although I like the Batman One, Metal Gear...and the Destiny one is ok. Nothing spectacular tho...youd be better off getting decals for it!
Vleerrgh! Something gourdy people with no taste would like....or justin beiber or jay fucking z.
Ugh... I wish they would pick a better promo spot than Taco Bell..
I haven't had Taco Bell in probably 6+ years..
I'm more partial to burgers myself. MERICA' (sarcastic patriotic pun)
If you eat from Taco Bell *beware* it was just reported on the radio Taco Bell and several other fast food chains put the most antibiotics in their foods. The report said, that people who eat from them and other places, bodies were becoming immune to antibiotics in general because of places like Taco Bell putting large amounts of antibiotics into there foods. So eat at your own risk.
But, that is one dope ass console I gotta say myself.
Nice! Gonna have to try for one. I bought a white Destiny bundle last year, then less than 2 months later won another Destiny bundle in the last contest Taco Bell had. My 10 yr old son got that one for Christmas. Now my daughter says she wants to try to win one for her room too.
May’s NPD numbers are out, and Sony Computer Eentertainment sent in a press release commenting on just another month in which the PS4 left behind its rival Microsoft in unit sales for the United States.
Senior Vice President of PlayStation Brand Marketing Guy Longworth shared the company’s victorious statement.
It was pretty obvious that Sony would win May, the $400 Xbox One is coming out next month, so it will be interesting to see the numbers. My bet is that the PS4 will still win, but the gap will be closer
I wonder what EA's thoughts are on not bringing Titanfall to the PS3/PS4 - especially after this sales domination for next gen.
Microsoft was giving a 60 dollar game away with the Xbox One along with massive retailer incentives before they were forced to officially drop the price down to $399.
Anyone expecting some miracle recovery next month for the Xbox One are just setting themselves up for disappointment.
Congratulations Sony..
June should be much better for the xbox one with the cheaper price (though that comes at a cost, no camera) plus sunset overdrive
Wonder if we will see truefan & George in this thread...
http://www.gamespot.com/art...
Has anyone read this article...it's not one sided...it tells u that all three systems did well
Edit- sorry I'm not tryna rain on sony parade they indeed won this month...I'm just saying that the xbox one sales aren't as abysmal as so many want to think....the sales for hardware for the month were through the roof....which is good for the gaming industry as a whole
@ John Doe
I probably worded it poorly I was trying to say the story was written a little differently and painted all the systems in a good light...which I'm not saying abriael didn't because he said Microsoft has not released a press release they just gave more information for hardware sales in may
Edit 2- I guess ppl hadn't read it yet seems ppl dislike my comment...sorry
@Lawboy2
Hold on, are you saying that NPD numbers are off or that NPD is lying? Because I'm confused at your comment "Has anyone read this article...it's not one sided". Please explain.
Well Lawboy2, all I heard last gen was marketshare.
It didnt matter that PS3 outsold 360 every year it was out, it was all about how much of the market had jumped from PS to XB from the previous gen.
Given that XB dominated the US last gen and that PS is winning now, even slimmly, what does that say about the swing in marketshare and the changing preferences in XB'x only stronghold? The rest of Earth is Planet Playstation, if XB doesnt have the US (and by quite a big margin) they can never hope to compete saleswise.
@ bathyj
I understand that and i was not trying to insinuate that sony is not completely dominating Microsoft in the US...sony lead is probably a little over 500k in the us...my comment was to address the misconception that Microsoft did abysmal in may...
Granted sony may have still outsold xbox 2-1 or even 3-1 but it was a great month for gaming in general and hardware sales were way up from last year
Congrats to Sony for creating the most amazing consoles. Congrats to all the hurt fanboys who stealth disagree every positive comment about Sony, you are the true champions of trolling here on N4G.
@xHeavYx,
Plenty of people will explain the May NPD by falling back on, "Well the new X1 is coming out so people held off on buying an X1."
I stated last month that those using such a position and believing there would be a massive boost in X1 sales would be in for a rude awakening. The awakening is here.
This has never been about price, but rather value.
The day Titanfall launched on the X1, it could be purchased for $499 with a free copy of Titanfall. Yet at Gamestop, the X1 bundle was being outsold by inFamous (the game) as well as two PS4 bundles. Both bundles were OVER $500. One bundle was $576. And not one day, not one day did the X1 Titanfall bundle, cheaper in price, ever outsell either of those two PS4 bundles whilke Gamestop was supplying them.
Right now at Amazon, how is the X1 doing? Let's look:
The new X1 is currently in 48th place. That is the worst it has ever performed at Amazon. It is being outsld by two PS4s, one of which is the Destiny bundle. It is also being outsold by the PlayStation TV. In addition, the Kinectless SKU is being outsold by the X1 Titanfall bundle which is at 41. And 41 is also worse than it has ever sold. It isn't about price.
At Gamestop, the X1 is being outsold by multiple PS4 and WiiU bundles and it is performing no better than it had when it was bundled with Kinect.
At BestBuy it is in 5th when it was formerly with Kinect in 3rd. Not a good sign.
Price being the deciding factor is a myth. All indicators are that a Kinectless SKU will do little to assist the MS sales issue.
Pappy, its true USA is not the world, when you have the rest of the world to fall back on and dominate there.
When you only have USA, then yes, it is your whole world.
And how is Sony gloating? By simply commenting? Believe me, MS are saying much more by saying nothing.
Usually they at least tell us how many Zombies have been killed in Dead Rising (edit, damn ThanatosDMC beat me to it) or how many miles of road have been driven on Forza. Theyre the kings of yelling the loudest with the least to say. When theyre dead silent, its just spooky.
@Bigpappy
The difference being that Ps3 was beating 360 worldwide while not in the US, whereas Ps4 is beating Xbone by a mile everywhere.
Classic attempt at a Sony Too™, warping a situation to look like teh hypocrizyz when it isn't.
And gee, I'd think an Xbox fanatic like yourself would have noticed the same thing happening with Microsoft. Greenberg has pretty selective times in which he reacts to sales numbers. It's almost as if...*GASP!*...a LOT of companies react mainly just to positive numbers! What do they have to lose? Shareholders can be very understanding people, after all. /s
Dont worry xbone fans, MS have just released some twitter comments ill quote them so you dont need to look
"100 gajillion bazzillion zombies poked with sticks in DR3 this month"
"7 megamagillion steering wheels have been turned to the left and right on forza"
"400,000,000,000,000 your mom insults have been said on voice chat in COD ghosts and titalfall combined"
Nice work guys MS is doing great, cos of all the big numbers see.
OT Nice work Sony, imo it may be slightly closer next month but Sony will still lead.
Microsoft did not yet post any comment on the official Xbox Wire site. This is the first time in which the house of Xbox does not post its own monthly take on NPD’s numbers immediately after the lifting of the embargo
Okay Bath and silent, you are read a bit too much into my comment. It is more of an observation than a criticism. Its like a roll reversal with a touch of relief, that M$ is not breathing down their neck.
Having a strong lead in NA does put Sony in a very influential position. It is possible they may hold it for the entire generation or may be not. My focus is getting some cool games to satisfy my leisure time on the console I fell comfortable with. I would prefer M$ have hat lead in NA so I get more Skyrim, less Demon Souls. Not that there is anything wrong with that type of game, but I prefer Skyrim by several miles. This is not a west vs east hinge either. I like DOA series and Soul Caliber type game too.
Any way congrats to Sony any their fans for getting their way. I will do the same at next month's bloating session.
"I remember when Sony used to be dead silent when NPD came around. PS fans cornered the statement "NPD is not the world". Now Sony is gloating all over the places and its minions follow suit, signing high praises of victory."
You mean Sony fans are not allowed to do what you always did when the 360 won NPD?
I will say now what I said then. NPD does not equal the world althought it must also be noted that as with the PS3, Sony is leading there as well.
@Bigpappy
"Any way congrats to Sony any their fans for getting their way. I will do the same at next month's bloating session"
Sorry but you won't get the chance, it will be like this for a while, get used to it.
Sources @GAF say..
PS4 sold over 200k
XBone under 100k
Margin bigger than 2-1 in favor of PS4
@bigpappy k.Sony leading in consoles will not make games like skyrim go away. In fact , i was one of those guys that bought skyrim for ps3 and the way bethesda treated playstation fans was so bad i mean i think i swore never to buy a bethesda game. after they patched it yeah it was good but i hate how you believe somehow american developers will vanish from making games if a leading console is from japan. we live in a crazy time were games are being made by everyone this generation further proves that. if i had to chose a console to buy skyrim it really wouldnt matter because i love the game but if i had to choose i would choose the ps4 because if you have done your homework it should be obvious what console is obviously more adequate as apposed to last generation, when the developers were to lazy to properly port a game made for 360 to ps3
"It is more of an observation than a criticism"
-
No-bubbles Xbone-troll, please. Who do you even think you're fooling? "minions follow suit, signing high praises of victory"? Yeah, just an itsy bitsy observation. The bitterness emitting from your comment left a burn mark on my monitor.
"I would prefer M$ have hat lead in NA so I get more Skyrim, less Demon Souls"
-
Even had to downplay Souls entirely off topic, too, now that the (spiritual) series has an exclusive on PS again. Bravo, you're so subtle.
"Any way congrats to Sony any their fans for getting their way. I will do the same at next month's bloating session"
-
Why would you do that? They couldn't outdo Ps4's sales when retailers shoved 1-3 games in with Kinect and unofficially dropped the price to $450. You really think a new bundle with even less value is going to put Xbone over the top?
...oh wait, did you mean gloat or point out pseudo hypocrisies? I guess the latter wouldn't be a surprise.

Am I the only one who laughed when Phil Spencer called the X1 the "Best Place to Play" at the press conference? Not only playing catch up with sales but marketing slogans as well...
"Greatness Awaits" has been a great slogan for Sony so far, as nothing yet released and no games announced for the future are worth playing. Announce something good already Sony!
"""Greatness Awaits" has been a great slogan for Sony so far, as nothing yet released and no games announced for the future are worth playing. Announce something good already Sony!"
You must live a boring trolling life.
I think Phil Spencer is gonna turn the XB1 around and it will be highly competitive this Christmas.
So far his short term moves have been on point.
Waiting for The CloudZ, DirectX-12, and Azure.
actually I heard Dedicated Servers So many times during MS expo at E3 that I see Azure being used already.
While I agree that it is way too early and extremely arrogant to completely discount MS from this race, I think Sony will own this generation. MS has a die hard fanbase that will support them and eat up their exclusives but Sony is on a winning streak with unveiling their hardware, having more powerful hardware (that is cheaper none the less) and their lineup of exclusives and better looking/running multiplats. This entire generation MS will be playing catch-up and it will be a real struggle if they ever hit the #1 spot. I find it hard to believe they will being that Sony ended up outselling them last gen with all the hurdles they had to jump to get there. Like the year head start in sales that MS had, the infamous $600 launch price tag, weaker multiplats and the exclusives taking years to shine to their full potential.
Its was nice not to hear Cloud Cloud CLoud at MS's show. But we did hear dedicated servers an awful lot.
I think their market research told them people are skeptical of "the power of the cloud" and frankly sick of hearing about it without tangible, practical applications to prove it, so they are not calling a spade a spade anymore in order to sidestep that issue while still letting them talk about it.
None of things you mention will help. The only reason the xbone might be competitive this holiday is because M$ dropped the price. There is no other reason but that.
The cloud, direct x, and azure have nothing to do with it.
"Waiting for The CloudZ, DirectX-12, and Azure.
actually I heard Dedicated Servers So many times during MS expo at E3 that I see Azure being used already."
Ok let's break this down. The cloud is the right terminology MS has been using because that's what azure is more here - http://www.rackspace.co.uk/...
http://www.itworld.com/clou...
The problem is in terms of functionality and what has been shown it is nothing more then dedicated servers to us gamers so the term cloud is just redundant at this point and the fact they are scalable doesn't mean much to us. What we care are is that they are servers. This is especially true given how much it has talked about yet the best examples of real applications are (Forza 5 and TF) which have functional that we have seen used before in other games not what MS have talked about being possible so I can see why MS are changing their wording now even if it's wrong. The closest thing we have seen to a real world application is a tech/concept demo for crackdown. With another one coming at some point again and we wouldn't see it's real world usage until 2016 when crackdown launches (maybe earlier).
The there's DX12 which again isn't going to do the same thing people are thinking it will do to PC or mobile because unlike those platforms which DX12 is like a evolution update to XB1 it's more of an efficiency/incremental update because a lot of the features of DX12 are already in XB1's API and it already enjoys having "Console efficiency".

"Forza Motorsport 5 is an example of a game that pushes the Xbox One to the limit with its fast-paced photorealistic racing experience. Under the hood, Forza achieves this by using the efficient low-level APIs already available on Xbox One today. Traditionally this level of efficiency was only available on console – now, Direct3D 12, even in an alpha state, brings this efficiency to PC and Phone as well. By porting their Xbox One Direct3D 11.X core rendering engine to use Direct3D 12 on PC, Turn 10 was able to bring that console-level efficiency to their PC tech demo."

But people can choose to believe in the clouds and have higher expectations than they should if they want to I guess :p.
Mods, I was warned about SDF, but this is always acceptable?
Clarence, using M$, necessary?
None of things you mention will help. The only reason the xbone might be competitive this holiday is because M$ dropped the price. There is no other reason but that.
So you're another Spencer Freak huh? Well the guy is a puppet he spouts what they tell him to say. And if you actually believe he's responsible for all these changes you're bring willfully ignorant. These changes were put in motion weeks and months before. Those aren't the kind of changes you make overnight but I guess you believe in Santa Claus too.
I don't care what Microsoft does. They started out wrong, they'll end up wrong. DRM is what killed their lead in the first place. It's too early to count them out but they screwed up BIG TIME.
I think November & December will be Microsoft's strongest months too.
Side note, May NDP numbers are quite staggering.
http://i.imgur.com/EYGWXlJ....
PS4 managed to outsell with every single multiplat game!
Lol
From delaystation last gen to waitbox 1 this gen.....swings and roundabouts huh
More like Sony is having a PS2-like-renaissance. Meaning we're screwed with PS5 :p
Nah, IDK. Just gimme more awesome games and bring more media functionality and they'll continue to succeed.
Sony has been the top selling console maker in the world for the past three years since the Wii fad died off and the PS3 took over the top spot in weekly/monthly worldwide sales.
Sony isn't having any renaissance - they simply continue to dominate.
Ps3 was the only Sony console to not be in first place (by a LOT of systems) and that landed in 2nd. Maybe every third system will be Sony's cursed systems and they'll be okay til Ps6, lol.
MSFT should have made a statement, regardless how bad of a month it was. Even if it was a generic, we are committed to improving the XB1 statement. I think June will be the start of a 6 out of 7 month run for the XB1, only potentially losing September because of the Destiny bundle.
Sony isn't going to keep being able to tout multiplats this fall.
@LeCreuset so with an even price do you really see XB1 getting beat more than two months with Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive, and Halo MCC coming out September, October, and November. Not to mention exclusive content for AC Unity, Call of Duty, Evolve, and Dragon Age Inquisition. Remember this is USA only, there are still a lot of 360 owners waiting to upgrade, this fall that number will shrink.
"I think June will be the start of a 6 out of 7 month run for the XB1, only potentially losing September because of the Destiny bundle."
With you making the most of that bubble, why do they even need to make a statement?
So you did show.... Only to chat utter tripe..
Because you said this about titanfall, predicted a few months of xbox dominance due to that game and we all know how that turned out.. Its like you have a new reason every month for xbox domination
Get a grip
MS is out of the race for first that's all there is to it. DX12 won't save it halo won't save it and the cloud won't save it , Sony are just doing what they alwa ts do to MS and that is dominate them.
"Sony isn't going to keep being able to tout multiplats this fall. "
Funny that you say that, because last gen that's all M$ kept touting. Multiplates look and play better on the 360. That's all M$ did last gen.
All that exclusive content and DLC did nothing for the 360. Last gen it was the cheaper console, and it still ended up in last place. Face it. This gen belongs to the PS4.
M$ no longer has NA numbers to help them. They will have to battle it out for NA now. Even if they could get NA back it won't be like it was last gen. M$ can only hope to come out of this in 2nd place.
Sony hasn't even had a price drop yet. You do remember when they dropped that cheaper slim PS3. Imagine what will happen when Sony decides to drop the price on the PS4.
@truefan1's edit.
I'll tell you what, man. Since the mods won't do anything about your daily shilling and trolling and you seem so confident that XB1 won't get beat more than two months for the rest of the year (7 months. June to December), I challenge you to put up or shut up on your claim. No more pulling claims out of your butt and not owning up to them.
If Xbox One is outsold by PlayStation 4 for less than three months from June to December of this year I will make one last post humbling myself, delete my account and quit posting on N4G, but only if you publicly agree to likewise make one last post humbling yourself, delete your account and quit posting on N4G should the Xbox One be outsold by PlayStation 4 for more than two months from June to December of this year.
You can accept this challenge by commenting and acknowledging your acceptance, under your truefan1 handle, at anytime in the comment section of an N4G piece posted between now and the deadline of this Sunday at 12:00 am PDT. Shoot me a PM letting me know that you accepted, with a link to your comment as evidence.
Update: Just so there is no ambiguity, this deal pertains to sales figures as reported monthly by NPD. I would extend it to worldwide, but that's just unfair to you (not that just NPD isn't), and there aren't respected monthly reports of worldwide sales.
Who cares about exclusive content when the game itself runs better on PS4? For the multiplats anyway.
Delusional as always Truefan1, but I guess you had to damage control in some way over this crushing Xbone defeat.
Why won't they be able to tout about multiplatforms? In most cases if games run in 1080p they will still have thr higher framerate or better looking version in general.
During the launch month of Titanfall the X1 sold for 450 with Titanfall. So people got the console, Kinect and a game for 450. Buying only the console for 400 without a game and without Kinect isn't a vetter deal. The Kinectless SKU will give the sales a boost, but I don't see MS overtaking Sony.
Many Halo fans will already have am X1 and while the franchise is huge, it's a remaster of old games and not a new game. So I wouldn't expect too much, same goes for TLoU remaster great game but it's not going to make a lot of people buy a new console if they already played the original.
Sunset Overdrive will be a niche title coming from a company that isn't very well onown outside of the PS community with sales most likely similar to Dead Rising.
Forza Horizon 2 is the only one of the 3 that I can see as a proper system seller, but then again many Forza fans will already have an X1 since launch.
As for exclusive DLC, do you really believe that 1 extra hour of AC4 DLC made people by a PS4 over the X1 last year? Those things are a nice thing to have but not system sellers especially since in 99% of the cases it's timed exclusive DLC.
June will be interesting, but I wouldn't bet money on the X1 outselling the PS4. If you look at the Amazon charts the X1 kinectless SKU doesn't exactly rank super high and that's from the biggest retailer in the US.
"Funny that you say that, because last gen that's all M$ kept touting. "
Sure, but that was late in the gen when people were satisfied by the rich choice in each library and had all their friends on one of the online services. Those are the conditions when one can coast on multiplats. This is early in the gen when libraries are anemic and barren. This is also when the multiplats are typically transitional from the previous hardware gen and so look pretty meh all around. Multiplats are a lot less exciting right now and not likely to change someone's mind about buying a console right now.
Another Forza another Fable a scraped together Halo collection which perfectly illustrated MS lack of games perfectly. They were so desperate they showed CGI trailers for games you won't see until 2016. Every 3rd party game they showed will be better on the PS4. You are delusional plain and simple or you're a shill either way you're wrong MS has bigger problems than price and they keep ignoring it like you are.
Ah, come on, this site wouldn't be as funny without truefan.
You should change the terms: get truefan to change his avatar to that of Kaz, indefinitely, or something.
Well, TrueFan1
When I watched the MS conference, I watched it with the idea of MAYBE buying a X1, because I also have A WiiU next to my PS4, and the idea of having them all (yes, I also have 3DS and Vita, but the 3DS is more played by my girlfriend then me..)
But nothing I saw on the conference, convinced me of pre-ordering one (I live in Holland, release is september here). Forza is beautiful, but then Gran Turismo and Driveclub are also. Fable never bothered me, Crackdown maybe, HALO MCC for me isn't a systemseller. HALO 5 isn't coming till 2015, and sunset overdrive looks awesome but, it's not my type of game, I would be bored very quick. Scalebound was a CGI, so I can't comment on that on this time.
The only game what peaked my interest was Ori and the Blind Forest. But still, no systemseller. Inside also looked great, but like Limbo it will come to PS4 also.
And for the multiplats, I stick with the PS4. Exclusive DLC, like 1 hour missions or weapons and armor etc, aren't systemsellers or gameseller for me. What the X1 lacks, is a great adventure game like Uncharted, which combines great graphics, humor and action.
And they lack serious FIRST PARTY STUDIOS
So why should I buy a X1?
xbox has to do well in the US market because sony pretty much had Europe in its back pocket. That is why sony has pushed hard at gamescom like its E3
i wouldn't be surprised if Drive Club a lot of airtime during gamescom
it will be very very interesting to see how xbox one does without kinect at same price point as ps4
I wouldn't be surpised if Sony announced a couple of new IP's or sequels, games at GamesCom either... They did it for three years now.
Guerilla Games is located in Amsterdam, which is like 3-hours drive from GamesCom. So maybe their new IP will be there?
The XB1 price-cut would only really affect console sales, not software sales (which if you read the article, is mainly what Sony is claiming victory on).
But I bet the XB1 console sales during May were unbelievably abysmal due to those holding out for a cheaper version (which also says a lot about the general public's thoughts on the Kinect, and how it was undoubtedly a massive mistake for MS to force the higher price tag + Kinect on people from the beginning).
Will be very interesting to see the XB1 console sales during June. If it doesn't at least match the PS4 sales for this month, then that pretty much confirms the death of the XB1. Because this cheaper SKU is essentially like a re-release of the XB1, which means the sales during this month will be the highest the console will ever see again (launches always have the highest sales numbers).
No it doesn't, the next six months will be more telling. You expect everyone to just go a buy an xb1 in June?
Sunset Overdrive and Halo collection aren't out till later this year.
"You expect everyone to just go a buy an xb1 in June?"
I would expect a sales surge from people that supposedly held off buying a system in May, so it would be saying a lot if XB1 didn't at least match PS4 for June, especially in North America.
If Microsoft offers inferior or similar things to what the PS4 is offering, they are fu**ed. People this generation will go with Sony unless Microsoft does something drastic. Microsoft to salvage the X1, they have to offer more. If Sony offers 2 games, Microsoft has to offer 3-4 games with their paid online service. If Sony offers indies with PS+, Microsoft has to offer AAA games with Gold. If Sony has 4-5 AAA exclusives, Microsoft needs 6-7 AAA exclusives. They need real AAA exclusives, that you can't find anywhere else. They need interesting services and experiences you can't find with their main competitor. One other thing, Microsoft has completely forgotten Europe (beside UK). Gamescom is around the corner, they need a strong show over there.
Microsoft is going to have a though job to surpass PS4 sales... I don't believe they can or they will. They need more, and I don't think they are willing to offer more to what Sony offers.
I love how everyone has stocks in sony on n4g and cares about these sales. Do you play games or do count sales all day. Cmon step your game up where were you guys when wii destroyed everyone last gen? By n4g logic everyone should buy a wii
This sony jerk circle is just sad. Play gsmes not resolution, sales, reviews etc
In lelo's defence (not like he needs it) but he definitely isn't a sony champion or sales player. I concur that about 99 percent of n4g members receive zilch in a monetary sense from any of the 3 players sales. What some will get is prolonged support from 1st to 3rd party developers and the one at the top, probably the lead console for development of 3rd party titles
@Legacy212
Play games not resolution? Well I play games and they run at different resolutions and effects how they all look. If there are two versions of the same game why would I want to play the inferior version? I would want to play the one that looks better and that would be the PS4 version (not counting PC but that is a different story). Often it is not just resolution but is lighting, shadows AO etc.
yeah go tell that to all the xbox fanboys who use to constantly brag about having the better multiplats and the 360 having more sales than the ps3 and how often the ps3 got outsold by the 360 monthly for years on end in the console wars. If anything xbots are getting a kick in the ass by karma for all the shit they use to say to the sony fanboys. Now that the tables have turned xbots all of a sudden don't care for sales and having better multiplats.
MS hasn't shown up at GamesCom for years now...
Sony is there every year with a conference...
So, if I was MS, I would be there this year
That killstreak, 5th month in a row.
PS4 goes like a boss!
I think its safe to say all multiplats will sell better on PS4 this gen (with few exceptions maybe).
Destiny in September might let it climb to those 10m and further.
Watch Dogs market share in US :
PS4 ~ 46% ( +575k )
Xbone ~ 29% ( +360k )
X360 ~ 14%
PS3 ~ 11%
Total >1.25 mil. in US.
PSVita get bump around 1600% ( last month sold 3k ).
Wolfenstein :
PS4: 41%, Xbone: 38%, X360: 13%, PS3: 8%
@XiyakushijuAkeginuXi
Nope, it's still X1 vs PS4. Fighting for all the gaming sheep. The Wii U targets a completely different audience.
Ha I asked that question on gaf was wondering the same thing. So this really is the first time they haven't given PR early since the launch of XB1. Damn must not have enough stats for PR spinning :p. The way PS4 dominated this month in multiplats and X360 outselling the XB1 TF SKU and PS4 being second best selling SKU for Ghosts really paints the picture as to how bad it was for XB1 this month. Will be interesting to see how the kinectless SKU helps next month.
If it was in 2nd place, Larry might have been able to salvage something but then it got trounced by the 3DS (and it's still dubious whether or not the Wii U is in 3rd or 4th place) there's no sugar coating that kind of news.
Yeah I'd imagine that a lot that were going to purchase may have held off to wait for the new X1 SKU, so they probably had a pretty bad run recently sales wise. It will be interesting to see if the system gets a sales boost with the kinectless option in the wild now. Still think its going to take a long while for MS to close that sales gap regardless
The price drop won't do much , the console was already as cheap as the ps4 with all the deals shops like eb games , game spot and all the other places did, if people didn't buy it then I can't imagine this will help.
"Yeah I'd imagine that a lot that were going to purchase may have held off to wait for the new X1 SKU"
That is a reasonable assumption. Makes perfect sense to me that individuals wanting to purchase an XboxOne would do exactly that.
However, if a 'significant' sales bump fails to materialize for June then I believe Microsoft really will start to panic. In the business media, since release of the XboxOne it's always been stated by the 'Experts' and Analysts that price is the biggest factor in the sales gap between the two consoles. June and July will force that type of dialogue to be revised should positive results not surface. That really would spell perceived disaster which in turn would necessitate far more aggressive sales incentives from Microsoft.
I'm intrigued to watch this all unfold
True,
If there isn't even enough to work with to at least spin something into a positive then MS must have had a very bad month indeed.
Next month will be extremely telling. If the xbone doesn't outsell the PS4 it will basically be all but confirmed that MS will come second or even third this generation.
And if that happens, the question must be asked... Will the shareholders allow MS to pour millions into another console? The xbone can still of course be profitable even if it comes second place in sales, but will those profits be enough to please the investors?
Considering the Titanfall bundle at $450 still couldn't beat the PS4 for a single week in the US I highly doubt this new kinectless bundle will push sales enough to pass the PS4, least alone match it. Time will tell.
Their PR staff is qualified enough to turn even the most abysmal numbers into something positive(not that the X1 numbers were abysmal). Look at when Windows Vista came out, they said a lot of great stuff about the sales, even though the consumer base wasn't on board.
"On the other hand, Microsoft did not post any comment on the official Xbox Wire site for the first time since the release of the Xbox One."
Nice.
Also, where are the official numbers, all I saw was a generalized statement, would be interesting to see actual numbers.
no aaron greenburg either....he hasnt come out of his troll bridge for months...
I don't see why you're getting disagrees. It's not entirely true since last November was MS's best month (because of launch), but June should see an uptick and be the best month for them this year since a lot of people were holding off after the announcement for the Kinectless SKU. I don't think it'll overtake the PS4 for June though.
They're not gonna be able to spin this though, and it seems like they're not. If they do try to spin it, I can only see them trying to pin it on people waiting for the Kinectless SKU, then they're gonna be admitting that people don't want the Kinect. Saying that would be against their interests since they're also saying that they're not "giving up on Kinect".
There's also Medhi with his "people are satisfied with their 360s and not their PS3s" BS... If Spencer knows what's good for him and the Xbox division, he should duct tape Medhi's mouth.
He's getting disagrees because everybody knows the truth: that May sales were gonna be bad, anyway. It was late in the month that the announcement came; it wouldn't have had time for THAT much of an impact.
I mean, come on. Look at these last few months. What would have turned those slumping sales around for May?
That aside, a quick look at Auto Cad's comment history tells you why some would disagree without reading. He's definitely earned his disagrees.
"price cut being announced hurt ms this month..
June should be MS best month "
Fair assumption with respect to line 1.
In theory, it really should be a solid month. Near a month and change of interested buyers that (assuming they knew about the price drop) likely would have delayed purchase until the price drop began.
It will be 'telling' one way or the other. It shouldn't be underestimated how much those particular results will have on the media talking points moving forward. It's borderline critical for Microsoft to have some solid numbers. If anything, from a media analyst type position. Otherwise, it's trickier to keep optimistic business buzz/articles circulating to investors types etc..
You are getting disagrees because June is not a sure thing either way for ms. They couldn't sell titanfall plus Kinect for 449, why would people line up for 399 with nothing? Small uptick I predict, no games either. I don't see ms turning this around for a while. New halo, gears maybe but when?
As expected, due to the early announcement of the new SKU.
Edit: According to the disagrees, I guess not?
But..the Kinectless SKU came out Jun 9th, and this is the result for May, so I don't get where you are going with this?
umm. I know this is the result for May. I believe my comment implied xbone fanboys will say wait until June's results. My comment made perfect sense and that is what they are saying already.
Then in June you re gonna say there wasn't any good games that came out that s why xb1 was outsold by ps4 again.....
I really don't think we're going to see a huge boost in Xbox One sales in June. May was nearly half over when MS announced they were dropping Kinect, and they were already running the bundle with the free game. Anyone looking to grab an Xbox One would have been saving $60 there just with the added bonus of the free title. And, let's face it, most consumers probably aren't even aware a price cut is coming to the Xbox One as your average buyer doesn't keep up on game news.
At any rate, it's not like a huge amount of gamers were suddenly sitting on the sidelines in May which somehow skewed the sales data. We'll see an increase in Xbox One sales in June with the price cut, but I don't think it'll be anything to write home about. Now that people can actually get their hands on the PS4 without shortages to worry about, I expect the PS4 will continue to expand on it's lead for the foreseeable future.
I'm sure that everyone knew that May was gonna be a tough month for X1 console sales. However, it's great to see that Wii U is doing a TON better, that's awesome. I just have to laugh at one thing....it was too funny to pass up. Sony says that the May NPD shows that it's the best place to play innovative IPs...then lists Watch Dogs and Wolfenstein...two multiplats... I'm not sure you guys can take credit for those two titles.
You don't get it. They're new IP's(idk about Wolfenstien), but people preferred playing them on PS4.. That was the point.
@corvusmd I agree hopefully people were holding off for the kinectless sku ..
June should be closer, if it's not ms have alot to ponder and worry about especially with tlou being released on ps4, but xbox has sunset overdrive.. June should be the most Interesting month in a long time
Ahhh wolfeinstein was like the first fps, seriously it's what inspired all fps. It's old! Though I think there was one older, but it's one of the oldest for sure
The numbers must be too embarrassing for Xbox to release. i'm expecting a 4:1 in Ps4's favor for May.
What with The Last of Us Remastered coming soon, Destiny in September, Drive Club and Battlefield: Hardline in October, Little Big Planet 3 and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare in November, GTA V assumingly in December (R* getting the christmas rush) PS4 will find itself pulling ahead even further. That's before Bloodborne in Q1 2015 and The Order: 1886 in February. Sure there are plenty of multiplats in that list, but look how well Watch Dogs sold on PS4.
I see a lot of comments saying June NPD is what really matters. I saw a lot the same comments before Titanfall released and in June the new excuse will be "Wait till Halo comes out" LMAOOO! Ps4 is in GAWD MODE.
Makes a lot of sense considering the price drop of the Xbox started in June. Lol.
Why would someone buy a $499 when they can get a $399 in less than a month .
It's common sense.
Simple lot of people are not poor. Hundred bucks is pocket change to me and I'm only 20. Haven't even moved all the way up in the world yet. If I really wanted a console, I'd buy it even at double the price. Hundred dollars off is only going to be a big deal for those that have not a lot of money. Then if you don't have a lot of money you shouldn't be buying one in the first place but oh well
Drinking that kool-aid too often it's bad for your health.
Come on man there's a big fat line between reality and complete delusion, still, the best bundle right now it's the Titanfall bundle, people are not stupid, for just a hundred more your getting the "amazing" kinect and Titanfall.
Why pay the same for an incomplete experience when you can get the ps4 for the same price? Do you get me? Jeez...
Because for 449 you could get titanfall and Kinect. Why would u pay 399 for nothing? We will see but according to amazon so far, June won't be miles better
Looking forward to June NPD for when the cheaper sku does nothing to move the needle. I'll be on look out for ya.
Sony had another good month of sales. Can't knock that.
The next few months will be interesting though with E3 over and dusted. Do gamers view Microsoft differently after E3 and the xb1, costing less?
June, and July, September, for me are the months to look out for.
first it was titanfall, now June, then what?
OT: good for Sony all this momentum and there is no releases from their big studios.
Yeah! We'll be here waiting for that don't worry, we are going to call you and congratulate you when X1 sales destroys ps4's in the upcoming months yeah.
s/
From what I can tell, people seem to feel about the same after E3 than before. At least on forums. I don't know about the general populace though, as the E3 info hasn't really disseminated among them yet. MS game announcements were generally well received though, although we knew about most of them. The CGI only disparagers are being a bit too cynical I think.
I expect Halo:MCC to boost sales, but PS4 might have it in the bag with GTA5 if it comes out this holiday. They're both ports,or remaster in Halo's case, but they're ports of highly regarded games.
On a side note, this is the second more reasonable comment I've seen you make lately. With people could discuss what you talk about instead of just discrediting you with negativity and auto-disagreeing.
I think a small surge for June might happen, just because some people may have been waiting for a cheaper version, and the price drop could have pushed them off the fence. Otherwise, the Summer is looking fairly dry for both systems outside multi-plat with the exception of TLOU(another port).
Check out Amazon.com charts, Gamestop charts, Best Buy charts...
You will be surprised how Xbone stands vs. PS4 in June so far.
Congratulations Sony PS4 has been destroying the competition all year best console to play games hands down.
@ Xbox fanatics Bu bu but wait till next month you been saying this all year still the same story this month.Serious question what does Microsoft have this year other than the Halo collection that will push consoles? Nothing no one is buying a Xbox One for third party support when its the same price as its competitors who offers more powerful hardware with better games.
I was hoping for sony to win this gen but not by this huge gap I hope Microsoft can get back in the game before sony get all big headed and start becoming their old self again
So ... what are the numbers?
It's cool to say you won, but can we get some hard data please?
Yeah Im wondering the same, I mean usually MS is one of the 1st to post numbers on NPD numbers. Wonder why no show? Maybe waiting for june numbers? Goodluck with that especially with TLOU releasing.
Sooo got a ps4 finished Infamous and Watch Dogs and there are no more games to play. Truly next gen ugghhh. Can someone suggest good games.
I have not seen much in ways of rpg on ps4 so I asked. Sorry I asked I mean I was just asking for some games other people might had enjoyed and could be worth my time :/
For RPG's i'd say check out Child of Light.
If you're into MMO's then FFXIV,
For dumb fun, any of the Lego games are entertaining. Not terribly next gen though. Lego Marvel Superheoes has a lot of content.
If you're into sports then MLB The Show.
Thanks for all the suggestions definitely will check out Child of Light had heard good things about it.
So the only source is a Sony Twitter post, repeated by NeoGAF (lol) and a site called DualShockers.
Hey Sony, if you're so confident in your numbers why not share them with the public? It seems sorta fishy that you don't, and that you're still combing unit data with the ps3. Why not give us the exact number as delivered by the NPD service? You obviously have it. And during the ps2 era you shared it all the time. Hell, you shouted it from the roof top. Why the suspicious change in PR tactics? It seemed to happen just as the ps3 fell behind the 360 in the US market. (ironically it was recently revealed the ps3 never caught up to the 360 as you've claimed in the past.)
Now here's how people will respond to my obvious logic: accusations of being an Xbox fanboy, accusations of being a Nintendo fanboy, and the typical NUH UH reply.
Oh and just for fun, NeoGAF is the site that refused tickets to E3 from Microsoft only to get a shout out from Sony at the event. They also have a host of fake insiders. Their sales data is just as legitimate as the stuff you see on vgchartz.
MS will probably sell the most when the Halo collection releases. Wait til then, MS will have there day/month eventually.
@Poor NPD hasn't provided any exact numbers. And only Sony said they were on top. Think before you write next time.
@BitbyDeath, I personally don't care if Microsoft sells more or less. If they can't get their act together that's their problem. I just enjoy busting the PR spin machine that caters to the corrosive sales age culture that damages our industry.
Are you insinuating that Sony are lying? Regardless of the sales total Sony are still on top. Try reading before you write next time.
Yes, as bluntly as possible.
They made a movie about this whole debacle. It's called Pulp Fiction.
"my obvious logic"
So according to your "obvious logic,"
Sony is lying, and the PS4 in fact was NOT the top-selling hardware in May, or their mentioned software figures did not in fact surpass those of the competition.
So logically (by the *real* definition of the word), if PS4 did not sell the most, then another console must have.
Are you proposing that the Xbone outsold the PS4? Why has MS not released a statement saying as much?
Perhaps you are proposing that the Wii U outsold the PS4. Why has Nintendo not released a statement saying as much?
Perhaps the Ouya outsold the PS4?
Again, following the most basic principles of LOGIC, since you "bluntly" claim that Sony is lying about the PS4 topping the chart, it only follows that another console sold more, so please elucidate upon which machine did so. Be sure to provide a LOGICAL explanation for the method by which you come to your conclusion. Please include the LOGICAL explanation for why MS and/or Nintendo would eschew making a statement challenging Sony's claim, and instead remain silent and allow what you claim to be a falsehood to persist, even though said alleged falsehood paints both MS and Nintendo in a negative light (in what could potentially be considered a libelous and legally actionable manner).
Take your time. We'll wait.
As for your anti-GAF tirade:
http://memorise.org/wp-cont...
Why not ask the same of MS? Seems they liked to toot their own horn last gen. Where are their numbers? Or their response to May NPD?
My guess as to why they aren't saying exact numbers? They're probably waiting for their next milestone number. 10 million most likely.
Sony has a lot to be happy about. They only projected to sell 5 million consoles by March. They're up 62% over that.
Also, you do realize that your obvious logic leads to the PS3 outselling the X1 right? If Sony is combining numbers, those numbers still involve PS consoles.
wasn't ms supposed to dominate after titan fall released? oops. i guess now we'll have to wait for next month to see if the price drop worked, right? and then halo? and then gears... and then sunset... and then quantum break, and then all those other exclusives that supposedly make ms superior, right? and then if sony is still ahead, there will be some other excuse lolz eventually it'll turn into, "just wait until next gen. ms will win next gen."~
ms is no pushover but let's just accept that unless sony f*cks up BIG TIME in the next few years, it's going to be the leading console this gen.
@xHeavYx
yea the ps4 is 6 on amazon best sellers
and the 399$ box one is at 50 i haven't seen it get below 40 yet
Price isnt gonna help the box to much when theres a better system at the same price
Agreed. The xbox ones new xbox sku isn't even in the top 10 on major online retailers.
So far I'm not seeing the xbox one at $400 having that big of an impact. When I go to the store I still see loads of xbox ones on the shelves while the ps4 is usually almost empty. On online retailers the ps4 is still ahead of the xbox one in everyway. If titanfal and a cheaper xbox one can't stop the PS4 I don't know what will.
Sure there is going to be a noticeable sales boost from this for the xbox one which is good. But it's not a big as we all thought it was.
Good job SONY!!! Fifth month in a row at top spot. If PS4 wins june i can see it being on top spot until release of halo 5
Good sales convices 3rd party's to develop software for your system. So they are pretty important in my opinion otherwise you end up with a Wii U.
Most Fanboys of a certain system play sales figures seeing how you got so many disagrees (not as many as my 82).
Rough start for the XB1 but Spencer will have it catching up.
PS3 had a Horrible start and it caught up but some have SHORT memories.
Sony's probably going to hold back on sales numbers until PS4 hits 10 million sold. Microsoft's real problem is that Xbox One is being portrayed as a sinking ship, and we all know the media loves talking about sinking ships...
$400 xbox one would not make a huge impact cause ps4 will always hold superior version of multiplatforms.
why would anyone get a weaker system thats been dismantled; for the same price as a better system anyway
game sharing policy change did not save x1
titanfall did not save x1
cloud did not save x1
can kinect-less save x1??
hmmmmmm
Innovative? rofl
Yeah as innovative as "attack its weak spot to deal massive damage"
and the PS3 controller having motion controls "what an innovation!"
PS4 is the best & most powerful home console on the market.. Best value as well imo.. Wii U is no punk even though its weaker.. I really enjoy the wii u & it has some fantastic incoming software.. Just as much as PS4... Wii U doesnt have the multiplats but its exclusives are always great & PS4 has both great exclusives & multiplats..
Im no hater because i love gaming in general but i have absolutely NO interest in xb1 even without kinect.. Until it gets more games i want & is smaller in design, i wont buy it.. Killer Instinct & Fable lengends look pretty good but not enough for me to buy it...
Theres only room for 3 home consoles under my TV & that PS3, Wii U, & PS4.. XB1 wont take my PS3's spot until it has more & better games..
The results in next months NPD report will be more significant than these I think. The Xbone was always going to lag a bit this month with people holding off to get the version without Kinect which is totally understandable and also probably something Microsoft fully expected to happen.
Woow look at Sony fan boys and Sony peoples they were hiding under the rock last generation ps3 kept getting owned by Xbox 360 now because they been winning it for a few months in USA now they saying ps4 it's a place to play games what kind of games downgraded games and ported games from ps3 or F2P ?
So much denial from the Xbox fans! LOL All you have to do is look at the TRENDS. Is PS4 trending up or down this year? Is Xbox trending up or down? It's pretty damn obvious to anyone who can read a simple GRAPH what is going on!
Xbox is losing momentum after a stellar launch. Xbox 360 fans who lept before looking snapped up the Xbox One at a record pace! But with no good exclusive games to back it up, and EVERY SINGLE multiplatform game looking BETTER on the PS4, the "average" gamer is going with Sony this gen! (and the "average" gamer is where the "war" is won or lost)
More early sales = more sales later from friends who want to play multiplayer games with the person who already bought a "next gen" console...so this trend will do nothing but accelerate from here on out!
Plus we have a LANDSLIDE underway with regards to developers! Xbox fans trash "indie" games...but look, there are going to be over 40 EXCLUSIVE games THIS YEAR on PS4...how many do you have on Xbox? A dozen? Less? People go where the games are!
The Xbox's big "ace" (if you want to call it that) is Halo 1-4...yes a "remaster" after the PS4 has been bashed REPEATEDLY in the forums for the remasters they are offering. Great for Halo fans...but they already OWN a XB1! The game is doing really well on Amazon's best seller lists...but the system (even the cheaper $399 one) is still stuck in the mid 40s!
No, this fight is all but over...but some people just can't accept it yet.
Sony confirms victory for this month too after Kinectless XB1 came out too damn!
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
go sony
Just no stopping it! Good times! Poor Xbone. They need to drop the price to 299$ and maybe Ill bite.
You cant have weaker hardware the same price as stronger hardware. The proof is now here.
Yeah b!tches we won! We f'ed yall up big! Just wait till June you'll see...We came and we conquered! Kings of the Hill!!! See how it feels XB guys, its plain stupid! This is what XB fans did all last gen! Fist Bump Bro!
