Sacred Symbols+, Episode 244 | The Sacred Sales Saga (November 2022)
Added 2022-11-22 17:00:09 +0000 UTCIt's time once again for our data-driven miniseries, the Sales Saga! Predicated on Sony's monthly official download lists, the game is simple in premise, but complex to near-absurdity in reality: Guess the 20 most-downloaded PS5 games for, in this case, November. Think it's easy? It truly isn't. The proof? We score October's guesses in this very episode, too! But what we're most excited to reveal is that we've figured out an easy way for you to play along with us and compete both with us and with each other. So, there's no room to talk trash. Put up, or shut up! You can learn more here, and to play, you must be on our Discord. Details within! Enjoy.

2022-11-27 17:33:31 +0000 UTCFor sure.

2022-11-27 17:33:13 +0000 UTCLoved the show overall, just thought maybe it’d be better if the picks were slowed down a bit, or more discussion about a few games like sonic at the end was funny and great, it just did feel a bit rushed at times during the show

2022-11-26 16:17:56 +0000 UTCWith Chris’ point to buying games when they are cheap when otherwise they wouldn’t be bothered to play. I had no inclination to buy/play Last Of Us Part 2. I saw it for $10 on the PS store and bought it due to the price. I can’t be bothered to play it so it will sit in my backlog.
Samuel Zamora
2022-11-26 16:02:22 +0000 UTCI’d be careful putting weight into what you may see or what pops up on PlayStation store. Is Sony is using user data to target games to people based on their buying or playing preferences?

2022-11-25 17:00:34 +0000 UTCThis show is so cool already. I hope someone does the math on actually getting the list 100% correct. It's gotta be near statistically impossible.

2022-11-24 09:03:50 +0000 UTCI'm not surprised. It's not going to be for everyone.

2022-11-24 03:04:01 +0000 UTCI’m surprised this doesn’t get as many comments as the main show. Love the idea to play along, I will do just that. As for you guys, I think Dustin is gonna take it again. He seems to have a knack for this. And for your first guest, why not actually have the guy who built the site? He deserves it no? Hope you and the fam have a good Turkey day Col. ❤️

2022-11-23 08:26:20 +0000 UTCDustin’s research seems to be deeper and more thought out. I’m placing my mortgage on him running away with this within a few months.

2022-11-23 00:48:36 +0000 UTCWith word of Sony cracking down on easy-plat shovelware, you know Colin is over there rubbing his hands, cackling like a super villain. Not even the slimmest chance of Life of Black Tiger 18 fucking up his NPD monthly list.

2022-11-23 00:28:21 +0000 UTCI cannot wait for “The Jumping Quesdilla Turbo” to be number one on the list

2022-11-22 23:10:46 +0000 UTCWe shall see.
Colin Moriarty
2022-11-22 20:25:25 +0000 UTCWorks fine! Lots of people are already submitting lists.
Colin Moriarty
2022-11-22 20:25:16 +0000 UTCThanks. =)
Colin Moriarty
2022-11-22 20:25:09 +0000 UTCShould work.
Colin Moriarty
2022-11-22 20:25:01 +0000 UTCWe discuss this on the show. It's downloads. Otherwise, the list would be all top-grossing games and nothing that costs less-than.

2022-11-22 20:24:34 +0000 UTCWebsite still not working

2022-11-22 20:23:55 +0000 UTCJust Dance may be a better pick than usual. The game is essentially download-only. Even the retail version which is what most Just Dance players will get is just a download voucher in the box, which I believe is counted in the PSN charts.

2022-11-22 17:15:43 +0000 UTCDNS error when loading the site lads!
Rage Against the Last Stand
2022-11-22 17:12:17 +0000 UTCQuestion - do we have confirmation from Xbox or PlayStation these “most downloaded” lists are based entirely on downloads and not massaged or otherwise manipulated to surface games the company wants to promote? I feel a lot of stock gets put into “Top Games” lists on the consoles but I’m sus on their actual validity.

2022-11-22 17:05:46 +0000 UTCDoesn't work for me either.
