SystemLink PC & Mac: "Usually, with just a week before release, the world is gearing up for Activision's latest offering of guns, 'splosions and more guns in the the form of whatever number is tagged on the end of a Call of Duty game. Except, this year, Infinity Ward's behemoth has been overshadowed by the Bethesda's monumental monstrosity"
Captain Price's fate at the end of 2011's Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 could've been very different, as this new post-credits scene reveals.
On 16 May, the long-awaited release of the PC version of Ghost of Tsushima took place. And the game proved to be a great success on the first day.
It has surpassed spider man now
it's 71k+
game did this with way shorter time than spider man.
@prince
I'm confused. Does that number mean total players at one time playing like a snapshot
or total sales? If it's the former that's not very accurate because I know I'm not the only person that buys games and plays them later and that number is not included.
Is this going to be the new thing thing? Articles about Steam reviews? Which of course was in response to the false article about the review bombings in the first place.
Hey, just a heads up that the new owners did open news to Steam updates, but we try our best to not allow them to go on daily updates unless relevant to some other news. I understand this isn't everyone's cup and tea and sympathize, but the door has been open. If you feel it's 'too much' please do PM me or submit a ticket to the mod team. Thank you.
I came here to post this link in that specific article. 84 perce t is pretty good. How many bad reviews were there like 5
I always get confused by this, but is 72k good sales numbers for a game? I keep seeing games fail at selling 2.5 million and that they need to be on multiple platforms but is an additional 72k adding much?
Im not sure how its confusing :\
72k actively playing. Not 72k sold.
A good example is Helldivers 2, 6m sold, 450k (at its peak) active players.
But how many swords swung is what we're all really waiting for.
for one they already had a huge launch on the playstation, they don't need to sell 5m to make the porting to pc profitable and as pointed out below that number you see is just the people playing it at this moment.
Also from the insomniac leak we know these PC ports are a quick turnaround and budgeted around $2-4 million. At 100k sales they break even including Steams cut. They may not sell millions but they are a great ROI
72k concurrent. That is a global number. People who bought the game are not playing at the same time because of timezones, working schedules, holidays, events... There is no good rule of thumb but you can extrapolate based on other games that also released sales data. Then it is clear that the PC release alone accounts for at least 500K copies sold on steam, maybe closer to 700-800K. Probably will sell over a million this extended weekend.
According to steamspy and other data gathering sites games like Days Gone, Spider Man, God Of War, Horizon Zero Dawn have sold 2 to 5 million copies on Steam. So I expect Ghost to reach similar numbers. Probably even surpass it.
Mecha Party brings the VR MOBA to Europe and Asia on PSVR 2 and Steam, while the Quest 3 version targets a summer release.
This looks pretty good. RIGZ made me queasy but I've got better VR legs now (I think).
Only on Steam and Amazon PC games. Keyword PC. If you look at overall in video games the PC version is not even on the top 10 chart at all.

As expected:
1) MW3 360
2) UC3
3) MW3 PS3
...
Honestly, COD seems to conquer all for better or worse.
Skyrim is the best!
Well they are two different genres but lets look at the facts...Modern warfare 3 will probably have like a 6-7 hour storyline with not much thought process involved...just shoot everything that is not friendly LOL. Most of the fun will be from playing online which will have its fair share of fun for many many online sessions....but in a couple of months will get old because that new COD that will be coming out. Skyrim on the other hand is an open world RPG that will be fun 5 years from now because you can play for 100 hours and still not finish the game their is so much to do.....Im sorry did I get a little biased just now??? My apologies I couldn't help it.
COD is more of a console game but this is still a achievement if Skyrim is beating BF3.
Playing and finishing Skyrim will take those real life months away from your life.
