Where on earth did you get 5 million from? Also, I didn't apparently Microsoft did. That's the whole point. It undershot expectations by a massive sizeable margin.

Too lazy to look for Rex's bold prediction. But I guess it was 5:1 or so.

It won't stop until GTA 6 comes at this rate lol.
5 M what? That could be users.
I think few games in history have numbers like the old Halo, right?
Yea I don't think any exclusive game will ever do that again.
Microsoft didnt either.

Uncharted 4 n°2?

So much hyperbole. UC4 didn't hit a million, but that's without bundles and digital factored in. I'm sure when you consider those it's probably somewhere over a million. What you should take away from this is: NPD is growing increasingly irrelevant for determining software numbers.

This is true. I wish the gaming industry was tracked like the film industry. I like transparency.

I was right. Doom > OW. Feels good.

How many units constitute a flop?
Gauging whether something is a flop or not can't really be measured by a title being or not being in the top 10.

Wow, UC4 N°1 I'd have thought Overwatch would take the spot.

PS4 domination in the sales charts. Doom sold more on PS4 as well.

For context, Uncharted 4 sold 2.7 million worldwide in its first week
Well actually that would be 810K(2,700,000 *.30). Well either way it looks like UC4 sales slowed down drastically. Maybe that 40 rating killed they hype. LOL!

Battleborn was thought to be a massive flop. It was never expected to surpass Overwatch. Maybe you have the games mixed up.

You don't know this, digital and bundles are also not counted. Based on other charts the drop was within normal levels...
