Seen that colteastwood guy just today said Spiderman 2 barely broke even. Idk about that guy 10 mill sold sounds like alot more then breaking even.

blackblades116d ago

Culteastwood is a joke and a embarrassment to the gaming community

ocelot07115d ago

I only learned about this colt guy since the Xbox leaks last week. He just seems like a nutcase barefaced liar.

Loving the stupid mem that people keep posting about him thought.

blackblades115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

I learned about him before this gen started. He wason xdealer podcast I random listened to a couple times all of them was *****. Then i started seeing him in my Twitter feed randomly and we mix words with each other he was so toxic. I blocked him on it but still see his post because people keep bringing screenshots of his posts up.

TheColbertinator115d ago

Nobody sane listens to ColtEastwood on anything. I have been gaming on Xbox since the launch year 2001 and not once has he offered anything positive to the gaming industry or even to Xbox. He thrives on overhype and buzzwords.

Colt is a joke. He's literally a gun nut who happens to be a singer, who saw an avenue to grow his following through bashing PlayStation and giving fawning praise to Xbox. A useful idiot, if you will.

Willing to bet he likes Xbox and is useful to Microsoft in the same way Dave Ruben likes conservatism and is useful to Dennis Prager.

gold_drake116d ago

yeh i mean, thats what, 700 mio moneys? not even considering inflation and conversion in other countries ha.

The_Hooligan115d ago

Also, can't forget the deluxe edition and the collectors edition which cost more than $70. Regardless of what the revenue was, the game is profitable unlike some of the bozos on this site were saying. So, with the cost of $300mill with Sony selling 10 mill copies, the game is profitable. Of course ppl with the knowledge of how revenue and profit are two different things, already knew that.

EvertonFC115d ago

I think from the leaked documents Spiderman made about 50 million from physical sales but roughly 400m from digital sales.
Something like that can't remember the full story.
It's literally why they want to go all digital because the money is shit loads more than physical sales.

shinoff2183115d ago

Idk about all digital 40 percent of sales being physical is still impressively high considering so many games that release with no physical . I have a hard time believing only 50 mill was made off Spiderman 1 if 400 mill was digital.

YourMommySpoils115d ago

Looks like that colteastwood disliked your post lol

RGB115d ago

He's the guy in 2022 saying Xbox Series consoles were outpacing PS5. LOL

PS5 in Summer 2022 had more consoles sold than Xbox Series today.

Xbox Series X|S is at 22.3 million thanks to TakeTwo and Sony quarterly reports!

RGB115d ago

It's worse, Sony is reporting 54.8 million (up 100k from this source), so Xbox Series X|S = 22.2 million.
Furthermore, thanks to TakeTwo & Sony's Q4 reports, 2023 totals are;
PlayStation 5 = 24.8 Million
Xbox Series X|S = 3.2 Million

PS5 > XSX|S = 7.75:1 Globally! No wonder Microsoft is throwing in the towel.

darthv72115d ago

And because it was only available to PS5... 10m sold to a base of 54m is pretty good.

Einhander1972115d ago

Don't point out that Starfield had twice the development time and sold less than 3m and the vast majority of those sales were on Steam not xbox.

Father__Merrin115d ago

Colteastwood is a disgrace hes one of them annoying old school xbox 360 fanboys that hasnt changed his ways. cant wait to see him squirm tomorrow evening

Amazing attach rate for Spidey 2. That's like 1 in 5, as it was only available on PS5 obviously. Good stuff.

repsahj115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

Wow! 20% is an impressive number!

__y2jb116d ago

Sony are doing amazing numbers while putting in the absolute minimum of effort. If only the Xbox team were competent we’d be seeing more games and more innovation across the board.

Eonjay116d ago

I think you are being too harsh on both companies here. Sony is working on several new IP and Microsoft is compotent, they are just clearly very risk adverse... but I am sure they are working on new IP too.

Einhander1972115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

Microsoft is not competent, they just have a lot of money.

If xbox wasn't completely subsidized and had to exist on it's own profits it would have failed already. And they certainly wouldn't have been able to get game pass off the ground and spend a hundred billion buying publishers.

Crows90115d ago

Making good games isn't risky...MS has only one excuse .. incompetence

badz149115d ago

did you somehow mistaken Sony for Nintendo??

Travesty116d ago

It took the original Spider-Man almost a year to sell 13.2 million units. So that being said Spider-Man 2 sold 10 million since October is pretty impressive.

Profchaos115d ago

In saying that sm1 launched in a packed window at the same time I recall red dead redemption 2 and the Spyro trilogy launching at the same time.

Travesty114d ago

But the orginal also came to PC. Not saying that is sold astronomical on PC but SM2 has just sold 10 million on one platform.
I’m not sure other games coming out close to SpiderMan caused it to sell slower, even a great game as RDR is.

Workshyskiver116d ago

The bigger news is that Sony say they won't be releasing any new existing IP games until March 2025.

purple101115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

the they got concord which is 1st party, but new ip.

id quite like some new ip not just sequels.

EvertonFC115d ago

NOT exactly gonna shit out AAA games with some of the Devs only releasing there current IP a year or 2 ago.
It takes 5 years to make these games, it's not rocket science.

NotoriousWhiz115d ago

Still have wolverine to look forward to.

10AM PT/1PM ET/6PM london time.
on June 9th.

this is so odd. we had ps before the summer fest and now xbox after.

Lightning771d 17h ago

The rumor is 30 games with a nearly 2 hour show. I hope so I, been saying they need to go balls to the wall with their showcase. That's according to Grubb again. Yeah a huge pinch of salt he's only been wrong or half right about some stuff.

There's also suppose to be a Wu Tang Clan game that's a kungfu action RPG featuring the legendary hip hop group New Yorks own Wu Tang Clan. You read right Wu Tang Clan kungfu action RPG.

Sounds weird, random and quirky but hey I'm down to see it.

romulus2316h ago

Bet the title has Shaolin in it.

purple10112h ago

State of decay 3 info is leaking on twitter!

Looks good. Personally don’t play horror/ zombie games, but I appreciate it’s a good game so that’s a win for Xbox fans.

Lord knows they need a win at the moment

ThinkThink10h ago

Appreciate the concern, but I think we'll be just fine. Hope you all enjoy tomorrow's show.

anast16h ago

This show is going to be painful.

Elda16h ago

Hopefully not knowing most games shown will be multiplats & some eventually multiplats.

anast16h ago

The presentation is going to be the painful part. There might be some good games though.

You can always make a drinking game out of it for every time they say the words "Made for a modern audience".

The amount of time you invest in hating a company who doesn't even know you exist is hilarious.

I hope it's a good showing knowing most games that will be shown will be multiplats & XB timed exclusives that'll eventually become multi-plats.

Tacoboto13h ago

It is what it is at this point.

At least the good games will have a chance to be bought, take advantage of the superior DualSense, and *maybe* give those studios a better shot at survival.

They'll also have better shadows, and run with higher dynamic res on the PS5 Pro.

Lightning7710h ago(Edited 10h ago)

So if they're multiplat would you suddenly like Xbox games?

You never have before you've made that clear several times over.

Elda8h ago

I have an XBSX. I also own a PS5 & a Switch. What's your point??

Lightning778h ago

My point is what I said. You don't like Xbox games, you've said it repeatedly. So would you suddenly like Xbox games if they were available on PS5.

Crunch+Bad management+Greedy disgusting monetization.
I'll tune back in when D3 is dropping and they've toned down the monetization & the foundation is good

DefenderOfDoom214h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Final Spape campaign getting very positive reviews. I am enjoying the Final Spape campaign myself. Definitely worth the delay.
