    Just to clarify, answer 1's second button is triangle, not 'up'

      Changed the left right to arrows rather than triangles, hopefully that helps.

    Apologies if not allowed but this person appears to be sharing the codes/answers on twitter…

    https://twitter.com/patent_dude

    Code One
    https://twitter.com/patent_dude/status/1493711820607168523/p…

    Question One
    Question 1: During December 2021, how many hours of games did players play on their PS4 console globally?

    • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 10:34

      I don't believe their answer for Question One. It happens to be the same number for active users on PSN.

      • Qazxswec on 16/02/2022 - 10:49

        no its not, the answer i used was way bigger than active users and it was correct, way bigger

        • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 10:52

          How do you know it was correct? You can enter any answer and it will be accepted. I entered 1.

          • Qazxswec on 16/02/2022 - 10:56

            @sween64: well i dont know then, but it said you could only enter one answer, i put my first answer in and it said incorrect, it let me put a second answer in and i made my number bigger, and the second one said correct and that i won an entry

            • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 11:24

              @Qazxswec: Hmmm strange. Did your first answer start with a 1?

              • Qazxswec on 16/02/2022 - 11:56

                @sween64: no, my first answer was 9 billion something

                • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 12:53
                  +1

                  @Qazxswec: Not sure why my answer was accepted then. Weird.

    • BillyStm on 16/02/2022 - 10:37

      Not letting me edit, but should read the codes/their guesses on twitter

  • BillyStm on 16/02/2022 - 10:36
    +1

    I dont believe their answer either, and its closest to the correct one that wins an entry mechanism. Definitely don't copy the same one or the answer wont be the closest.

    • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 10:37

      Best data I could find is here but that only covers the top 100 games. I've tweeted at the developer of that bot/website.

  • sween64 on 16/02/2022 - 10:42

    14 codes over 3 weeks… I guess I'll just wait.

  • claycharles on 16/02/2022 - 16:48
    +4

    From what I can find, the average gamer played 8 hours, 27 minutes (8.45 hours) per week (though this seems high to me) - https://www.techrepublic.com/article/8-hours-and-27-minutes-…

    As noted above, over 111,000,000 users in December (I'll say 111,200,000 as an assumption)

    Converting week to month: 8.45/7*31= 37.42 hours/user

    Total: 111,200,000*37.42= 4,161,104,000

    • Altashi on 16/02/2022 - 18:23

      It'll be a bit less than that since it's asking for PS4 hours specifically, and the 111 million is for overall PSN users.

      • sween64 on 17/02/2022 - 12:40
        +1

        As of Aug or Oct 2021, PS4 had sold 116.41 million units. PS5 had sold 11.25 million units. That's a total of 127.66 m units of PS4 and PS5. PS4 would account for 91.18% of users. 1

        1. Assuming PS3 and PSVita users make a negligible portion of users. link ↩

    • Qazxswec on 18/02/2022 - 17:12

      the average kid with a ps4 would probably play fortnite between 20-30 hours a week, the average stoner would play ps4 at least play 15-20 hours week, i think your estimate is a little light, it would be at least double that

  • sween64 on 17/02/2022 - 09:04

    Question 3:
    During December 2021, how many hours did players play ‘Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End’ globally? (PS5 and PS4)

    • sween64 on 17/02/2022 - 13:01

      Data here might help.

      I ended up with 6,176,884 hours.

  • sween64 on 17/02/2022 - 09:13

    Question 2:
    During December 2021, how many times did players log into their PS4 console globally?

  • BillyStm on 18/02/2022 - 08:41

    A few more of the codes listed today..
    https://twitter.com/patent_dude/status/1494348493263093760?s…

    Once again don't simply use his guesses, as its the closest to the correct number wins and guesses are all speculative.

  • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 09:11

    Question 4:
    During December 2021, how many hours did players play ‘NBA 2K22’ globally? (PS5 and PS4)

    • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 10:09

      Data here might help.

      My guess: approx 61 million.

  • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 09:13

    Question 5:
    During December 2021, how many hours did players play ‘Horizon Zero Dawn’ globally? (PS5 and PS4)

    • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 10:11

      Data here might help.

      My guess: approx 18 million.

  • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 09:14

    Question 6:
    During December 2021, how many hours did players play on their PS5 globally?

  • samwisethebrave05 on 18/02/2022 - 12:02

    These guys are tracking the codes, questions, and their best guess at the answers as well.

      They are their guesses, not necessarily the answers. 3 closest people to each answer win so don't just copy similar entries to others

      • Tree Fiddy on 18/02/2022 - 12:47
        +1

        Looks like Press Start has copied the guesses from the Playstation Lifestyle site above. I'm also a bit suss about their guesses… 15 billion for the first question would work out to be 4 hours per player per day on average based on approximate number of PS4/PSN users.

        • sween64 on 18/02/2022 - 18:11

          Yeah. It would be closer to 1 to 2 hours per day per player based on the PS5 numbers above.

      • j4ck on 18/02/2022 - 12:54

        Yeah look, that's fair. I didn't read the competition requirements properly.

        I'm still happy to take the lazy approach on this one but maybe change up their guesses.
