Exclusive outsell all when executed right.

Erik73572446d ago (Edited 2446d ago )

Not really much coming out for ps4/Xbox one around this time of year either , notice how it's outselling last year's COD.

Not that it's selling good it's just kinda easy to be top selling game around this time of year for the console if your game is half decent

Shin-Zantetsuken2445d ago (Edited 2445d ago )

It might be easier to reach number at this time of the year but it still takes a special game to reach number 1 repeatedly. There are many "half-decent" and even good games that never reach number 1 again after the launch period or never reach number 1 at all. Nice try to downplay the game's performance though. Activision has already announced that Crash remaster's success is far beyond all their projections so there is no doubt the game is very popular among PS4 gamers.

And for perspective, a brand new Mass Effect game, the first for this gen, a juggernaut of a series, only launched 5 months ago and is nowhere to be seen and good reason.
Like Erik said, nice attempt trying to downplay Crash sales, a game other haters randomly claimed wouldn't sell well because it was only releasing on one platform (for now anyway).
Don't forget about other games released this year too like, apparently, the second biggest selling game in the UK this year after Crash, Ghost Recon Badlands, which is nowhere in the top 10 now either.

Games more than half decent and it has sold a ton so what point are you exactly trying to make. I will give you props for not bringing up Nintendo like you always do it probably killed you writing your ridiculous comment and not succumbing to the temptation

"Console gaming is dying!"

TheColbertinator2445d ago

"Single player games dont sell"

Big_Game_Hunters2445d ago

thats 100% untrue
http://www.vgchartz.com/pla...
only one exclusive in the top10 and thats only because it came bundled with the system for no extra cost.

AspiringProGenji2446d ago

But SP games don't have the same impact anymore... how is this possible?

Liqu1d2445d ago

Must be fake news that Sony payed for because Lord Phil can't be wrong.

EddieNX 2446d ago

Splatoon 2 still number 2 individual charts which is amazing for brand new console as is Crash sitting at number 1. Bethesda must of had a few price cuts.

Doom seems to have some long legs

"Doom seems to have some long legs"

Yeah doom is sexy as hell!

Relientk772445d ago

Infinite Warfare shouldn't even be there, the multiplayer is awful

Newmanator2445d ago

Yes i have loved all COD Multiplayers except that one.

Fishy Fingers2445d ago

Overtakes COD in weeks at number one and outtakes COD in sales are very different things.

Disruptor PS1, a pre Goldeneye console FPS from 1996 (with Command and Conquer type FMV cutscenes) and the first game by a pre Spyro Insomniac Studios directed by Mark Cerny. A good game for its time, and pre Bioshock use of telekinesis type powers. A game sadly almost completely lost to time

PrimeVinister18d ago

I have never even heard of it, so that must be a deep cut. Sounds really interesting and I might dig it out :-)

PrimeVinister18d ago

@Cacabunga A classic, no doubt. But, fondly remembered by many.

Cacabunga18d ago

First one was so good but second one on another level!!!
Still hoping to see a next gen version..

PrimeVinister18d ago

@Cacabunga Yeah, I preferred II for the real-timier combat. I would love to see both remade or remastered.

on_line_forever18d ago

We need to bring back the golden era of ps1 & ps2 .
We need to see quality games developed with alot of passion to make gamers satisfied .
We need to benefit from new AI technology to bring something new to games something like " nemesis systems " that used in shadow of morder and upgrade it to next level

PrimeVinister17d ago

The economics of games has changed a lot since the PS1 and PS2. As much as I would love a return to those days, it's not not at all likely.
