Sales of the PS5 in Japan have already passed the two million mark, with Sony’s flagship console now selling twice as fast in the country as it did last year. With stock readily available, it’s not surprising to see PS5’s fortunes in Japan turning around, but it’s still good to see nonetheless.
That’s not all, though. The PS5 is also the first PlayStation console to have sold two million units in a single year — or in this case, just nine months — since the PS2 achieved the same milestone back in 2005. Life-to-date PS5 sales have reached 4,408,983 in Japan so far, and this year the console’s sales total 2,031,594.
Take-Two CEO says that Rockstar Games want its upcoming open world action game, GTA VI, to be the best entertainment product ever created.
Can’t wait! Like my hype has never been this high for a game. I hope it really delivers and looks like what they’re showing. Like, I’ll finally feel like we’ve entered next-gen if it does.
Only game this generation I’m truly hyped for. A true AAA big budget banger pushing the hardware to the limits like the good old days!
I can't wait for this overblown cutscene game to come out so i never buy it and spend money on it.
That's a really cool story; I'm sure your mom loves it when you tell her those stories when you come out of the basement.
Technically it looks incredible but I’m a bit disappointed that it’s turned into a franchise about heists. I miss the more carried mission structure. I miss having just one playable character too.
Exactly. It's a shame we don't have one playable character. And the boring heist all the time. Miss the more grounded story's about people.
They're definitely gonna charge 2x. Full cost for the story. $80 Full cost for the MP. $80 complete $160 Bundle with some in game currency and Cosmetic dlc. $200
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "During my time at PAX East, Sorlie walked me through two titles: the original Bubsy on SNES (his personal favorite) and the now infamous Bubsy 3D, the franchise's first foray into three dimensions. Each game in the anthology will feature the quality-of-life features common to Limited Run's Carbon Engine, including rewind, save states, screen & filter options, and even an optional "boost mode" that overclocks the system slightly to remove slowdown."
My one friend and I loved Bubsy 1. We used to compare him to Sonic all the time. So with us and the one person from this article it has at least three fans. 🤣
I was so lucky as a kid my parents convinced me to rent Busby 3d first because I was full steam ahead on buying it with my pocket money based on the advertising alone.
"The Germany/US-based indie games publisher Aerosoft and Munich-based (Germany) indie games developer Thera Bytes games, are today very glad and thrilled to announce that the full version (v1.0) of their zombie-themed sandbox/lab builder/survival game “Zombie Cure Lab” (from the AAA sim vets at Aerosoft), is coming to PC via Steam, and consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series X/S) via digital stores on May 27th, 2025." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Good good good. Very good. Sony is smashing. It means more games, more sales that leads to more games.
Suck it, scalpers.
More than ever Sony needs to have success in Japan, they need to keep the shelves stocked there.
More Japanese games please. Many of my favorites are from Japan.
Excellent
