Xperia PLAY Becomes Gameloft’s Best Performing Android Platform



While the Xperia PLAY did suffer various launch problems, from a “freight issue” to a mobile provider pulling out from the launch due to bugs, the platform’s biggest publisher, Gameloft, has announced that the phone is “already a top device” in terms of game sales, beating out tough competition from other Android phones.


In an extensive interview with PlayStation LifeStyle, Julian Stocker, Managing Director for Gameloft revealed:

From what we’ve seen already over this weekend – the sales are very good.

In the very first weekend its already a top device for us in terms of number of games being sold, which is pretty amazing actually, because that means it must have sold in a reasonable number already over the weekend.

He added that the launch difficulties don’t seem to have harmed the sales:

Looking at the sales we’ve seen, I don’t think there’s any problem; it has actually overtaken pretty much all the other Android devices already.

I'm expecting mine this coming Friday. I'm having an absolute nightmare with Three UK. I feel like they're slowly but purposely turning me into a homicidal maniac.

Vodafone tried to rip my son off saying he didn't have a data plan, only 900 mins and unlimited texts, so we had to spend half an hour convincing them that the order confirmation email showed 750mb data/month and even the online product sales page for the Play still showed the same deal when ordering!

thats what I said to my son. No networks sells a smart phone without a data plan these days.

he was good though.. very calm and dealt with it himself though I was standing by to jump in at the slighest hesiation on their side as this sort of nonesense from the networks just angers me.

I must say that the short time he's given me with the play has left a good impression, despite me not being much of a game player. I think can be fairly proud of this one despite early issues holding back the white version @ o2, which was his first choice.

Yes,the only game I play is Angry Birds but I do like some sports games like racing or football. The Play would be nice to own as a all in one device that does everything. I was let down by the Arc I am awaiting the Xperia Pro now. All these new Xperia phones are Xciting

@Bono

I think I might just egg them.

There are a few people were I work in the same boat but I'm liking the exclusive games that are appearing.

They must be crackers if they think they can sell a smartphone with no data plan. It'd be like trying to sell a new car with no engine.

Can't wait. They have only had dummies in cpw. Wasn't impressed with the screen though. Although I compared to the X10 screen which is hard to beat for a lot of phones.
