Will Uncharted 4 outsell Halo 5 lifetime?

Yes 319 51.29%
 
No 219 35.21%
 
Maybe 81 13.02%
 
Total:619

You're a bit of a loonie, aren't ya? No way UC4 will outsell Halo 5. Halo is THE system seller on xbox, and UC doesn't have the same pull. As easy as that.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Lol no...just no..Halo is Xbox. And the reason Uncharted hasn't been on the sales level of Halo is because you can get a full experience from renting the game, playing the single player, and sending it back.


I could do the same with Halo.


You could, but you would be in the minority. Do people buy Uncharted for its multiplayer like they do for Halo? No.

I think this is relevant: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=709697

A lot of people seemingly got burnt out on Halo 4's multiplayer because of all the changes trying to attract the COD audience while forgeting what made Halo, Halo. So i wouldnt put that much confidence on Halo's mp to be THE driving sales factor from now on..

 

As for the prediction, it could happen, since there is a very real possibility of a massive difference between install bases, and the fact that Uncharted is as popular as ever while Halo suffered a really small decline with Halo 4 (and fan backslash as per the neogaf thread). Its very much possible if all things go right for Sony.

Ok so you're saying Halo 4 sold around 10 million (including digital) from singleplayer alone? Well that makes it even worse for Uncharted.

No matter what happens, 343 has gotten feedback and learned from their 1st major game. I have faith that Halo multiplayer will come back stronger than ever.

I know what am I thinking? I think by time Uncharted 4 comes out PS4 will have a much bigger install base than Xbox One. I think that much alone can give Uncharted 4 a shot at selling more than Halo 5. I also think Halo is going to start feeling series fatigue with the release of Halo 5. Regardless both will sell very well. 


Dude lets be honest. Uncharted is a great series going for PS but that doesnt mean its going to sell heaps. Halo games sell 8 million on avgerage with Halo 4 supassing 9 million. Uncharted will sell aswell as TLOU. 4 million is my prediction. NG games just arent for everyone.

Uncharted is fatigued . NG even stated they wanted to move on. I believe Sony had something to say which is why theres a 4th game in the works.



Not the worst prediction ever, Halo 4 kinda soured a lot of people with its mp, even casual friends of mine who enjoyed halo 3 or even reach ended up playing very little of it by comparison. But unless Naughty Dog knocks it out of the park with their MP as well as the SP its just not going to happen. Halo 5 will have at least a 1.5-2.5 million lead on the game LTD.

Maybe, but I would put my money on Halo.

I'll take that.



I don't think so. That would be amazing if it did, but it just does not seem to have the same sized fanbase as Halo. I think Uncharted's sales will rise with the PS4 as The Last of Us has probably added a lot more interest into Naughty Dog's next title so maybe 7 Million+ total sales, but anything above that would be a stretch in my opinion.

This isn't too hard to believe, game to console ratio isn't that much of difference between Halo 4 and Uncharted 3, when dealing with western markets. Halo 1:6 to Uncharted 1:7 even without a change in market trends, if the ps4 sales continue to dominate the Xbox one sales world wide, this could be achieved easier than some think.



I doubt it. OK yes the ps4 userbase is likely to be a lot larger but, Microsoft are going to outspend ND & Sony with Marketing by a huge factor. More Marketing equals more sales
