I could care less about Morpheus right now. Maybe it'll be good, maybe it won't. What I do care about, is all these JRPGs coming to PS4

PS4 Prints Money as System Shipments Surpass 25 Million Units

View media item 1650922

How's the PlayStation 4 doing now that the dust has settled on the device's launch hype? The answer: outrageously good. Sony has released its financial report for the first quarter of its financial year which ended on 30th June, and the results are pretty darn staggering. Indeed, the console has shipped a bonkers 25.3 million units to date, putting it far ahead of its competitors. You may have read recently that the Nintendo Wii U just passed 10 million units, for example.

In fact, so well is the PS4 doing that it shipped three million units during the abovementioned quarter alone – which is over double that of the Xbox One and Xbox 360 combined during the same period. We suppose that it's not all that surprising given the Japanese giant's sublime sales in Europe, but there's definitely been a sentiment in some parts of the industry that Microsoft's closing the gap – well, that certainly ain't happening in the sales department.

And it looks like PlayStation's going to play a significant part in that moving forward. The company actually increased its PS4 sales forecast, advising investors that it expects to ship 16.5 million new-gen systems during the current financial year – up from 16 million. That means that the console could be pushing shipments in the region of just under 40 million units by 31st March next year, which is frankly mind-boggling for a console that will barely be two years old at the time.

That will quiet the XBots for a while.



But seriously, good for SONY.




I have someone selling me Knack for $20, is it worth it?

 

[Ricky D]

I bought Knack for my kid for $20 brand new last year. I'm not even sure if he played it at all

 

[alleyzonjay]

[Fozz]

Might have to get this.
With the way GT sells, Sony won't be giving them the hurry up.
Polyphony and Naughty Dog can do what they want but they usually deliver.

Oh, man. That FF7 comet decal is nice. I want that lol.

Zombi launches on August 18

After being one of the Wii U flagship titles in 2012, Zombi returns to challenge gamers on multiple new platforms to find out how long they can survive in the dilapidated, infected London. For the second time in history, a great plague has shrouded the city in a fog of death and thousands have died, or worse, been infected by a sickness more gruesome than death. Once again, this fear-fueled first-person shooter invites all players to dive into the horror, chaos and tension found in the best of the genre. The nail-biting survival experience has been optimized for PlayStation 4 system, Xbox One and Windows PC, using the power of the latest generation of hardware to bring gamers to a new level of horror.

Players will experience the original oppressive and intense elements that made ZombiU so innovative. The bug-out bag is a necessary component for survival for each player as it contains all the player’s tools, inventory, first aid kits and maps, and more. With Permadeath, players are faced with a death mechanic that puts them in the body of a different survivor each time they die. In order to retain the equipment they previously gathered in their bug-out bag, they are forced to track down their old, infected character. Should players risk it all to get their bag back or start scavenging anew?

All without a price cut. It's mad.

 

[ciscokid]

Yeah I'd like that comet, snake, and hunter decals

 

[Fozz]

So are those decals only available in the UK?

 

[mrnappy]

 
It's Polyphony, man. They take their sweet time, but it usually ends up being worth it.

With Forza biting at their heels (and some saying surpassed them), you would think they'd push the development cycle up, but it doesn't seem like the case.

2016 is a fairly safe bet. 

i just switch from 360 to PS4 Forza was a great game but it lack the cars GT has and over all smoothness.

im really ready to get my hands on it to play i love them games

i cant play need for speed type games they are too kid like for me

thanks for the info

they don't sell solo's? why do I need 30 for 2 controllers

 

[Fozz]

Anyone here use thumb gribs? Trying to find a way to make sure the rubber on my analog sticks last longer lol.

Yup, JRPGS' and Japan making a comeback is the best thing this gen and I think PS4 doing well plays a big part. Even the Vita RPG's are being ported over.

Morpheus is day 1 for me as long as the price is reasonable. I think there's like only 2 of us on here excited for it

It's just hard to show off.

Having had so much fun with rocket league, I can't wait for RIGS on Morpheus.

I'm going to order a pack myself from Amazon.
My launch pad's left analog stick is gone.

 

[robpzee612]

Been playing FF 8 the last few days and I wish they would remake that game too lol.

 

[elpablo21]

Im addicted to Rocket League

I won't write Morpheus off but they're gonna have to get some demo stations set up so the public can test it out.

I can't wait to try out Rocket League (hopefully this weekend). Is that DLC that was posted free? I just read they have over $5M downlaods

 

[Fozz]

I've realized I play a couple of rounds of RL before I go to bed lol. As much as I want to get new gear in Destiny...I always find myself wanting to play RL before calling it a night.
