This week we recap every game that mattered (to us) at GamesCom 2022, as well as took a look at the PlayStation 5 price hike by Sony. That, and the Gaming History takes a look at the influential mass zombie apocalypse game Dead Rising.
The news includes:
Let us know what excited you at GamesCom.
As mentioned in episode 398, there is no podcast this week. See you next week!
The Xbox 360 saw a huge jump last week with Tales of Vesperia from Namco Bandai, but has dropped back down to normal sales (about none). Some are saying it’s mainly because of a short supply as the 360 sold out in Japan as a result of Tales of Vesperia.
In other news, the PlayStation 3 still isn’t selling very well, a bit more than the PlayStation 2 but nothing like the PSP. The DS holds the record yet again, no surprise there, but we always though the 360 was losing to the Wii and PS3. Although the Wii isn’t doing bad it’s not at the same crazy sales pace it is here in the United States.
The drop in sales for the 360 was fast, hopefully it was indeed due to out-of-stock issues, else that drop was faster than the drops we’ve seen here for GTA IV or MGS4!
