There's still no way to know whether digital sales for Hifi Rush are included since it's not on the list to begin with. Plus, the game is on GamePass and as pointed out earlier, it's probably the main way people are playing it on Xbox. So, these metrics are pointless, especially for a game that's on GP. 120Milllion active users and GamePass sub count is 25-30Million. There's still an overwhelming majority who do not have gamepass, 90+Milllion. So, had it sold well it should have been in top 20 easy.

You're assuming they're included like the other guy, I'm not assuming anything. I personally don't know even one guy in India that bought the game instead of playing it directly on GP and the ones I know subscribed to 1 month of GP to play the game. Anyhoo, if you think the game didn't sell well, fine, have it your way. Not even sure what the fuss is about, those who wanted to play it, have played it on GP. Those who didn't, are crying about sales as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is crying here, nor is this about having it my way, just pointing out the fact that it didn't sell well, despite being critically acclaimed. That's all. No one's calling the game you liked bad or gamepass bad, you need not worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean the digital sales are tracked under Microsoft or not tracked at all? I'll assume the former for now as it makes sense.

Vaibhavp Posted February 14, 2023 Report Share Posted February 14, 2023 Forspoken selling well means people are starved and will buy anything. I was told this phenomenon was a real thing and happens with other platforms regularly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don’t tell me digital isn’t included. Why are we assuming people on PS don’t buy digital ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything meaningful that has been shown to release this year from PS studios? Sony did purchased a bunch of no name studios recently, so there is still hope there could be a shadow drop or two.

0verlord Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 CMA should go through this thread to understand the beggar status of Xbox and grant the acquisition but still, if Xbox dies nothing stops Sony from charging $80, $90, $100…for games which customers can’t cough up consistently. Xbox is a necessary evil it seems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
