The PS4 is dominating the Canadian market

Omega-316 · 2014-01-23 07:48:53

PS4's restocked yesterday here in Toronto and I go into ebgames/gamestop and they have the Xbox one stacked up like a minecraft tree and the PS4 is like a rare elusive pokemon your trying to catch with a master ball. The thing just sells where ever it lands. I managed to finally get my PS4 after the third gamestop store I visited.I doubt this system wars last very long. The PS3 vs 360 was a close race even with the PS3 releasing a year later. With all the first party devs Sony has, all this Indie Station jokes will die out quickly while lems are stuck once again with their Forza and Halo while PS4 has first party devs pumping out games like there is no tomorrow. Hell, at least the 360 had gears of war to make it a triple threat. Think about it. You think third party devs will make games exclusive to a console that is way behind in the market? I bet you the devs behind titanfall and dead rising are crying at night.I give the Xbone 2 years life span. You?

Man many people really want to play Knack I guess because the PS4 has nothing else coming for it in a year.

DriveClub, Infamous SS, The Order 1886 and Deep Down are coming out this year on PS4. what exclusives does X1 have?

Don't count your chickens before they've hatched. How was the Last Guardian? How long did it take for GT5 to come out? Yeah, when it comes to Sony don't expect the games to release on time.

Where I am, another major electronics retailer has lopped $50 off the retail price down to $698 compared to the sold out PS4's $648, with 50% off a copy of DR3, Forza 5 or Ryse.

Looks like these fuckers just aren't selling.

Lmao 10-12 more games to announce at e3. In your dreams. Even sony or Nintendo couldn't pull that off and they have even more 1st party devs.

That's like 4 games no one cares about. Uncharted 4 looks good but I am disappointed ND is going back to Uncharted.

- Driveclub - delayed so many times it might not even come out. It will be average at best. Forza >>>> Driveclub

- The Order 1886 - looked interesting until you read the gameplay information. Linear, generic, more about story than gameplay

- Deep Down - really?

- Infamous - generic series, but this one looks to be the worst. The main character is so annoying.

Compare to the Xbox One which has new and unique experiences such as Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break, and Titanfall.

LOL dude the games not even out yet.. Uncharted 4 is gonna be great. i never mentioned Uncharted 4 is gonna release 2014, i heard it will have a new protagonist, so drake could not be in the game. and The Order 1886 looks so awesome let's just wait and see. and yup i have seen a bit of Quantum Break it looks good i know, if it turns out to get 90+ on metacritic ill get an X1 one day for exclusives. but Sunset Overdrive is mehh. Titanfall is not even exclusive which im getting it on PC

I have no interest whatsoever in an X1, but even I think it will do extremely well into this generation, probably better than what 360 can ever accomplish. And 3rd party development is strong in all XBOX platforms, since 2001.

The same thing can be said about Nintendo and Microsoft doesn't release games period.

@Omega-316: Xbox One have a 10yr plan in place. Microsoft has billions. I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon. All the 3rd party games going to the PS4 will be on the XB1 as well. M$ will have another 10-12 more exclusives to show at the E3. That's on top of the 8-10 other they haven't released from last years E3. Over 25 exclusives in the first year.

XB1 are still selling at a steady pace.

How long did it take to see the Wii in stores?

Over a year. I checked just about every month. The DS was sold out for about 8 months. Don't think the PS4 will come close to these numbers.

720P and/or 30FPS for the next TEN YEARS... yeah that sounds like an exciting "next gen".

I live in Canada and of the people I know who've bought a next gen console, all 4 went with Xbox One... Well one of them won one from Doritos, but still... I personally will go with PS4, but that's probably a couple years down the line. Neither have anything right now and neither look like they have the best 2014 yet.
