Gran Turismo has crazy long legs, as GT5 still charts at some places.Originally Posted by dragonbane
If this happens this would be one of the worst years ever in terms of bombs for Sony lol
Wouldn't work. Those pixel trees would still look horrible in 1080p.Originally Posted by Mt Heart Attack
I don't understand why GT6 is not a cross-gen title? That would seem like the most obvious choice considering it's being released along with the Ps4.
Sorry, here's what we got:Originally Posted by zomgbbqftw
I didn't see you post last week's software units and revenue totals, was looking forward to the YoY uptick after a year of doom and gloom!
What's the point of making a thread about that?For those interested...so far, no answer from Guardian about what happened with the splits. I'll probably make the thread about it later today.
...And then, how could we react to things like this? We can't stay and be subject to infos becoming more and more secret when so many other industries don't have any problem in disclosing results, even if they're bad. I know I'm probably too exaggerating, but I just can't stand this.What's the point of making a thread about that?
In the hypothetical case that they aren't publishing the percentage splits because GfK Chart-Track noticed that we are using that information to estimate sales, that thread would make things even worse. I don't know if that is the reason, probably not, but anyway I doubt the person who posts the platform splits will answer you in the thread :D
Stupid Halo. :/Sorry, here's what we got:
YTD November 2012: Ł800mm
YTD November 2013: Ł745mm (-7%)
Month of November 2012: Ł211mm
Month of November 2013: Ł150mm (-29%)
Week 47 November 2012: Ł44.4mm
Week 47 November 2013: Ł40.1mm (-6.9%)
Units are uniformly worse across the board, so...
Yes, week 48 and week 49 should be up year on year. Neither week had anything special last year. It really surprised me to see week 47 down by 10% YoY in terms of revenue given that week 47 last year only had Hitman as a new release title. I guess the holdover for BLOPS2 was better than this year, plus it started from a much higher base. Also Halo 4 probably held better than any title released in November this year. Still a little disappointed that the Bone launch didn't really help.Could GT6 also manage to help the market catch up?
Tier 2 countries.Originally Posted by KingSnake
At list there Mario 3d World did better. Was Xbone not launched in Sweden and Norway? There is no Xbone game in either.
That explain it. There are some sales data for games if you filter by console, though. I guess from people with imported consoles.Tier 2 countries.
I have no idea, I don't speak German :pIs GamesMarkt really 288 per year? I'd consider subbing, but that's crazy. Is there enough data in there to justify it?
It'd have to be significantly more in-depth to justify the cost. I pay Ł65 per year to access MCV UK digital edition, and that's already difficult to justify.I have no idea, I don't speak German :p
There's a 30 days free trial so I guess you could give it a shot. I don't even know if the german charts we usually get here comes from there, but if that's the case it's a top 50, no numbers. Although maybe they give numbers to subscribers, I dunno.
Maybe they meant 40% of what they had last gen. Sounds about right.40%, dude. 40%.
The magazine is not worth it IMO. Their site is better, they have more charts (Top 100) and a lot of pr contacts from the german games and media industry. Something like a closed Xing. But that's only valuable if you work in that industry in germany.Is GamesMarkt really 288 per year? I'd consider subbing, but that's crazy. Is there enough data in there to justify it?
Bold statement: WiiU might outsell the Xbox One in the following month (after the launch boost) in Germany. Sales for both systems won't be good though.New Super Mario Bros. U was 22nd in its second week.
Forza Motorsport 5 (the best selling launch title) is 34th in its second week.
Soooooooo funny.
Remember: bundles are not counted in German charts
In Cerny they trust.05 (NE) PS4 KNACK (SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT)
Dude your monthly charts and breakdowns are really interesting. Why bury them in this thread instead of making a new one? Anyway thanks for putting them out.MCV UK says Call of Duty: Ghosts sold around 1 million units in November 2013 (period ending 23 November 2013), down about 50% from Call of Duty: Black Ops during a similar period last year.
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag sales were down 60% YOY compared to last year's game, and Battlefield 4's sales were down 69% compared to Battlefield 3, again during comparable periods.
I have platform software shares for November, but boy are they kind of screwed up. Including only two digital titles (Forza 5 and FIFA 14, both for Xbox One) kind of puts a real wrench in things.
I'll try to type of the top 50 for November. If people want specific top 10s, please ask, and I'll get to them as I see the requests.
Edit: Were there PS4 software bundles? Like what? Was it believed that they were also counted as software sales in the software chart?
