Standalone software units month 1 of UC4 > standalone software units month 1 of UC3. It isn't even all that close.

There you go. UC4 can't be far off 1 million.

The wording makes it sound like UC4 sold less than UC3, considering the advertising budget this game must've had that does not seem too great. TLOU I remember did almost 1 million on a console that was on it's way out and it just kept on selling, once does have to wonder why ND went back to a franchise like Uncharted.

2.7 million first week sounds great but when you add in the advertising, where even your gran would have not been able to escape from a forced look at the game it's nothing special. I think Fallout 4 on PS4 alone did better and damn that must be a kick in the teeth, seeing how that piece of shit makes UC4 look like a masterpiece and that's saying something.

Yet here we are, Ratchet out the Top 10, what a travesty.

Quit while you are behind...

People are too used to MS PR that they are using the same detective spin in Sony/Nintendo ones now

 

[Sterok]

This is why Microsoft won that marketing award and Sony didn't.

It's closer to Uncharted 3 first month or to One Million units?

 

[Primethius]

Well at least that is clarified. Now SnowFlakeCake is going to be disappointed

I'm sure salt will still seep through his posts.

mucho grazie.

You wouldn't happen to have the DOOM split, would you?

 

[Fat4all]

doom is the best selling game in may after uncharted 4, which is remarkable given the fact that it had much less buzz

Word of mouth and positive press buzz must of done it wonders.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Still not sold on uncharted selling well. I want to see the receipts

lmao

 

[chadskin]

Don't forget the 9:1 digital attach ratio.

lol... sure buddy. They went back to Uncharted because U4 will sell ~10 million copies in the end of the day.

Okay thanks. Boooo at whoever wrote that confusing sentence in the article.

 

[gatti-man]

All this uncharted success makes me want to buy it but every time I play an uncharted game it just gives me a meh feeling. Maybe this one will give me that magic feeling.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Congrats to ND.

Mediocre game though.*

*Sponsored by Washington Post.

I give it a 4/10.

[ethomaz]

Doom second place? Selling more than overwatch? Is this a fake list?

Overwatch is supposed to sell more digital because it is online one.
And it is $40 on PC vs $60 on consoles.

Even so I was surprise with that and about Battleborn.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

I'm out of the loop this month due to work commitments. Any word of the hardware side of things?

213K > PS4: >200K
139K > XBO > 100K
72K > 3DS
28K > Wii U

That clarifies that. The statement by the NPD was pretty poorly worded.

 

[KinofChaos]

Sony PR is weak and looks like they put zero thought into it, disappoint.

 

[Jigorath]

Not a single Nintendk game of any kind.

Star Fox certainly wasn't going to chart again.

It's ok, SnowFlakeCake. Everything is gonna be fine.

Are there bundles in play? Seems a weird way to state that

That's absolutely incredible given that Uncharted 3 came out in the holiday period at a system with a larger install base 😮

[Arafo]

Oh yeah, is there anyway to check it's sales figures, or will we have to wait for a statement about PC sales?

Does Blizzard even do that?

Unofficial but always pretty accurate

Diablo 3 did about 12 million units before it launched on consoles, and then the first quarter after it launched there, it went to 15 million (which includes whatever PC copies sold in that timeframe).

And 20 million as of June 30, 2014.

[Rembrandt]

Minecraft selling best on PS4 now? LOL wut.

it's had a free trial on XB1 for a while now. Might have a increase in digital sales vs physical.

 

[Kusagari]

Okay, so at least that is cleared up.

Now to wonder if that "not close" possibly signifies a million.

 

[Hawkens]

All time best NPD openings for Sony software

1. God of War III - 1100k

Where is Uncharted 4?

[Loudninja]

He said standalone so I wonder where it at with bundles.

 

[RiccochetJ]

MS is bragging about hours played now?

They said they were moving to engagement metrics a while ago. Of course if they ever came out on top for a month, I would be floored if they didn't mention it though.

 

[FATALITY]

back from the ban
good performance overall i just wish r&c were there

 

[pastrami]

Okay, so at least that is cleared up.

Now to wonder if that "not close" possibly signifies a million.

He already said no software sold over 1 million.

Thanks that clear it up! I knew UC4 had to sell better than UC3 with all the advertising and the 2.7 million WW it sold in the first week.

 

[piccio_ssl]

Okay, so at least that is cleared up.

no software above 1 million

 

[Deadbeat]

So Uncharted 4 outsold Quantum Break by x times. What is the x? I dont remember what I said last month I have to check.

edit: I was hoping it was closer to 10 times than 5 times.

Hmm, makes me realize how much Sony's gonna have to knock the reveal and launch of the next God of War out of the park.

Cuz it would translate to a fuck ton of money.

Next week, you'll see they bragging about PS4 sales. No rush.

[Toki767]

So when CosmicQueso says standalone, that doesn't include the LE, CE, or console bundle?

Probably over a million with those I imagine.
