Playstation and XBOX Trailer stats on youtube post E3
- Thread starter OG_Thrills
- Start date
I agree. I'm fine with the other numbers, but I'm surprised Gears 5 was so low.
Yeah, I actually dig something like the Sony approach (except for that really dumb start), but this was the most fun I've had at an Xbox Conference in a long ass time. They managed to cut out a lot of the chaff that's bogged them down the last few years.
We should be seeing the yearly social sentiment report on E3 shortly. The one that always declares #xbox as having more impact across social media by not factoring in the time zone(s) and length between conferences.
Once the hysterics die down and people actually stop to look at the event in terms of games announced/shown per system throughout E3 rather than purely going by knee-jerk reactions to the "on-the-night" theatrics it'll be clear which platform had the better showing.
I share the sentiment for Gears 5. More people need to take a look at the trailer, it looks fantastic,
I hate these, but I do think Microsoft had an amazing show. They showed off so much good content. My only negative for Sony is that they didn't have any release dates besides Control and RE2 that we didn't already know. They showed off amazing games but I still give my edge to Microsoft.
I mean, obviously. Spending more money so there are more 3rd party trailers at your show, which otherwise would be at some other show, isn't exactly the greatest of feats.
Surprised that Gears 5 is so low. Thought it looked great and first one that doesn't look nearly identical to the previous games.
They should consider giving that franchise a rest for a while though. Let people get hungry for more Gears.
For me, I liked Sony best. The Last of Us Part II is the best looking game I've seen and Spider-Man looks amazing. As a lifelong Spidey fan, this game is a dream come true, and I get to play it this year.

It looks like MS is going to be changing things up and have started investing big in gaming. They have the money, way more technical and intellectual people power, and are American (it is easier to suceed if you are American). If they have a solid gameplan, well all I am saying is I would not bet on a somewhat debt laden, conservative Japanese company.
This doesnt mean that PS will cease to exist, just that MS gaming will be bigger and more profitable.
Sony has big exclusives planned for end of 2018 and early 2019 so I'm disappointed that we have no date for these
Yeah shows once again that Sony wins just in terms of reach.
More people watch and talk about Sony related stuff.

I don't think these numbers are correct.... For example Halo Infinite has been uploaded on multiple channels and has 2 million views on the Halo channel and 1.3 million on IGN.
Shouldn't you attempt to accumulate views instead of comparing the amount of views on the most watched upload of the video? The numbers would be different in that case.

Them investing in better 1st party studios doesn't mean they will be better then Sony 1st party studios. MS is doing now what Sony did decades ago.
I think with Gears it's a known quantity and it's something expected.
Really? Well I think it didn't look much better than the last effort which was weak. Spent a lot of the trailer trying to convey emotion but it lacked character and I don't care one bit about unknown grunts. Naming it Gears 5 probably doesn't help either. Feels old and tired which is probably why there was apathy from people even willing to watch.
These are from YouTube right ? I thinks that's relevant
A lot of people watch trailers for stuff they are interested in on YouTube

This reminds me of the same stuff people were saying before THIS gen started.
Like I said in the conference thread, MS had the better set up but despite showing 5x? the games, there was actually far more games I wanted to play from Sony's showing. I think MS showed too many (of which were mostly on PS4 anyways) and it lessened the impact.
I would switch around ubi and BE but yeah, pretty much agree with this.
Only surprise is how low Gears 5 is. I know the franchise lost a lot of steam after 3, but that was a good showing.
The Last of Us is huge too, surprised at the surprise.

This right here. While I enjoyed my Xbox, I sold my X to get maximum value now because it was clear that I wasn't going to be playing anything I couldn't play on my PS4 for the next couple of years. Hope they right the situation and I'm happy they've expanded, but that does absolutely nothing for me in the meantime and lurking era and repeating "best place for multiplats" doesn't either, so I saw little reason to wait it out.
If shit looks good in two years, I'll be on board for their next console for sure assuming that I'm not done with gaming by then.
Sometimes you read stuff that blow your mind, this is one of those things.
Lmao
After the countless fuck ups of MCC and Halo 4 & 5 being worse than the trilogy, I'm not surprised.
PlayStation is headquartered in America, the PlayStation arm of Sony is basically an American company. Also the market is bigger than America, that's why PS4 has such a lead on Xbox in terms of sales. PS4 is the leader globally, Xbox only does well in a few markets.
Even with Microsoft's projected investment in studios, Sony has a larger stable of talented developers who have had experience developing AAA hits. Microsoft is starting from the ground up with some of these devs, and not all of their older dev studios have produced hits lately.
Yeah that is kind of what I was seeing too. I'm not 100% sure but the combined numbers of the Halo channel and IGN put it easily over 3 million and it has more uploads elsewhere. I don't think the numbers are correct at all.
You're on one of the world's largest video gaming forums and that surprises you?
MS' show wasn't good because of MS' games (though Ori, Forza and Gears 5 looked good), was because of the 3rd party announcements.
These lists are more useful when compiled with the ratio of views to likes so we get an idea of which videos are being run as ads.
franchise fatigue is a thing and people have been tired of Gears for some time. Since before Cliffy left, really.
Going by YouTube Halo and PlayStation accounts
Infinite is at 2 mill and Last of Us at 2.7mill
Ghost of Tsushima is a 1.9 mill my game of the show
I think that shows mindshare
Bethesda coasting off showing title cards and only title cards for ES6 and Starfield is some trash
