As long as you're making up numbers, can we see the dreamcast win next week?

[elazz]

Im not remotely involved with vgchartz however it is always interesting to see how trends are moving around. That is why I've put this as a rumor because they are not always accurate and adjust numbers a lot to match reports from the publishers. Usually that is often too late though

[xHeavYx]

Interesting to see that 7 of the first top 8 games are Playstation games.

[Cindy-rella]

Its amazing how the more expensive ps4 is outselling the cheaper xbox one worldwide and its outselling it by a wide margin. It sold twice the amount of the Xbox one. I wonder what the sales will be like for the week the order 1886 was released on the ps4. Im thinking the game will do quite well worldwide.

[chrismichaels04]

Congrats to Sony on the PS4s continued and impressive worldwide success. I can see 2015 being an even stronger year for the PlayStation brand with all of the great looking new games coming out this year.

[Gamer1982]

Although VGchartz numbers are always off they are never off by too much they are estimating which means there's a degree of truth to the numbers. Like the fact PS4 probably sold nearly double what xbox one did again is probably true even with yet again another xbox price cut in the UK (its £300 now over here with upto 4 games). We know its probably true because its being beaten in US and its not even selling more than 300 in Japan.

[Zeref]

Its because the playstation is available in a lot more countries than the Xbox one. Otherwise it wouldn't be outsold by such a big margin.

[MasterCornholio]

@Zeref

"Its because the playstation is available in a lot more countries than the Xbox one"

Isn't that Microsoft's fault though? They had plenty of time to distribute their system to as many regions as possible and dont tell me they couldn't due to financial problems.

The truth is if the Xbox One isn't selling in those regions its because Mocrosoft doesn't care about those regions. The reason why is because the console would sell extremely poorly in them.

Why else would they ignore all those regions?

P.S Are you Foehammer by any chance?

[Mankey]

Why is this so late?

[elazz]

On the various forum pages it was still unclear why the charts arrived so late.

Though the next one will already be available later this day so they might be speeding up to be up to date again

[Insomnia_84]

PS4 keeps selling 2x the amount of units than XBO every week, ouch!

[Yaay4me]

I wonder what effect The Order had on hardware sales. This one is before the Order's release i believe.

[Chevalier]

The Order came out on the 20th so it'll actually be the one for the 21st.

[Yaay4me]

Oh yeah thats true, wow this report is like 3 weeks behind then.

[BlackTar187]

This is the least active VGCharts article i've ever seen.

[Spotie]

Well, there won't be anything to argue about, since one console keeps falling further and further behind. The fans that made a big deal about sales last gen don't want to talk about them now.

[Gamer1982]

They do on those couple of weeks a year Xbox manages to outsell PS4 in the US. They will make an appearance.. I am here to see the games charts.. Need Konami to sell lots of games dammmit if i'm gonna see that next Suikoden game!

Side note PS3 matching WiiU numbers.. WOW.

[BABY-JEDI]

There's a lot of PS4 action happening in those charts. This means someone's going to be unhappy!

[MasterCornholio]

PS4 that staying power.

Great numbers for the big three but the PS4 is absolutely killing it. Very impressive to see a firm like Sony able to supply their system to so many regions. Whoever is behind the distribution of the product is doing a great job delivering it to gamers all over the globe.

Well done Sony well done.

On a side note why is VGs taking forever to post their numbers? I'm really curious to see how many systems The Order 1886 sold.

[TheCaptainKuchiki]

Wow I just compared GTA V sales on PS4 and XBO and apparently the PS4 version is globally sitting at 5,959,489 copies vs 2,381,107 copies for the XBO. More than the double.
I wonder how Rockstar/T2 should react to that...

[Gamer1982]

Simple they will sign an exclusive DLC deal with MS and the announcement will come at E3. Of course it will be timed but you KNOW MS will try something like this to get some of those GTA gamers back to Xbox.

[corroios]

That wont make a diference. The diference in numbers is just to big and at e3 it will be even bigger

[TheCaptainKuchiki]

Back to Xbox ? But GTA has always sold better on Playstation if you exclude the GTA IV era.

[cruzngta]

PS4 global domination continues...but what about that dx12 secret sauce and holo lens?????

[LightDiego]

PS4 it's the leader, like always.
