During its launch month, God of War for Sony’s PlayStation 4 raked in $131 million in digital revenue alone.
The sales data comes from an article on ‘The maturation of narrative in video games’ from market research company SuperData.
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
A stunning Uncharted Unreal Engine 5 imagining has been released, featuring cutscenes, platforming, combat, stealth, and vehicles.
Created by Daniel Arriaga, a level designer at MachineGames on the upcoming Indiana Jones game, this fan concept is a solo developer project.
This Valentine's Day got me thinking of some of my favorite video game couples. Specifically, Nate and Elena from the Uncharted Series.
I'd really like to know how much the game cost to make and how much was used for advertisement.

"During their respective launch months, The Witcher 3 earned $69M, Uncharted 4 made $56M, and God of War raked in $131M in total digital revenue. These results show that there is a significant demand for narrative experiences among gamers.”
Take note EA. If you make a quality single player title, profits will come from it. It's insane how GOW managed to beat both Uncharted 4 and Witcher 3's combined revenue in their respective launch month. Congrats to SSM.
That's absolutely insanity.
With those sales numbers SSM and Cory Barlog's team should be able to do just about anything they want with the next several games in the series. GoW was an amazing experience and I can't wait for part two of the story. Really hoping for a 2020 release. 1 and 2 were two years apart. Let's hope.
