They will all score very high and will all sell a shitload of units.


Agreed



Around the Network

In Metacritic:
1. Uncharted 4
2. Zelda
3. Halo

In sales:
1. Uncharted 4
2. Halo
3. Zelda



In terms of reviews:

1. Zelda U
2. Uncharted 4
3. Halo 5

In terms of sales, it really depends on how Wii U and X1 sell for the rest of this year and 2015 because install base is key.



A lot of people don't realize, the halo 5 beta is coming out this year, that beta alone will make people get a xbox one, and when microsoft turns on the hype switch for guardians, sony's uncharted will not be able to stop it.

Think about it, Halo 5 guardians is going to be the destiny of 2015 next holiday season.

I doubt it. Halo series is in a decline the entire 7th generation, and with a lot of X360 users abandoning Microsoft, the decline will continue. It will struggle to sell 5 million lifetime, and Destiny will sell 5 million first week (granted, over 4 platforms total, so not the best comparison).

I'm not saying its going to out sale destiny, obvious thats never going to happen. all i'm trying to say is microsoft is going to hype the hell out of halo like activision is hyping destiny on the ps4, like its the only place to play the game. since this is microsofts baby, you no they'll release a limited edition halo xbox that will sell off the shelves easily like the ps4's destiny bundle.



Zelda isn't a huge seller. Halo and Uncharted are essentially MS & Sony's best-selling franchises, while for Nintendo Zelda is like... sixth.

So I'm guessing sales will go Halo > Uncharted > Zelda
And I'm guessing metascores will be the opposite. Uncharted could be on top though, it will probably be close.

Not all Nintendo games get 92+ on Metacritic.

All 3D Zeldas do though.

In fact, this being an open-world Zelda game, it's looking like it'll rank very high. Critics always overrate open-worlds.


Keep in mind though - these are the Uncharted 2 and TLoU guys working on Uncharted 4.



Lmao, whatever but the ratio of PS4 vs XBO vs Wii U, PS4 will have a huge lead and that is why Uncharted will sell the most. I also think either Halo or Zelda will be the lowest because 1. Halo is not made by Bungie, it will never be better than a Bungie Halo and 2 I think Zelda is old, people are tired of it and might not care much about it, but the fact that it's open world might change that.

Sales:
Uncharted, Halo, Zelda
Simply because of consoles sold

Meta:
Uncharted, Zelda, Halo

Even if uncharted doesnt win meta it wont be by much and it will probably still win most the GOTY awards.


because of consoles sold ...you re wrong ...xb halo and zelda  n64 sold more than uncharted ps3!

 

Youre wrong because all those consoles were from a different generation and all those games are better/worse (compared to the competition) than they are today.

First lets get Zelda out of the way. That has no chance of winning sales even if half of all wii U owners buy it. Just for reference, MK8 has so far been bought by less than a third of wii U owners.

As for Halo, its up against COD, BF, destiny (made by bungie), titanfall, homefront, next crysis

Compared to the original xbox, thats a lot more and much stronger compeitiion and they have also lost bungie who are now directly competing with it. Times are a lot harder for halo now than they were on the original xbox when basically anyone who played online was playing halo. Last gen that changed when COD and BF became big, and this gen its going to do destiny, titanfall and maybe others. The quality gap which Halo had over competitors simply does not exist anymore.

Then look at uncharted. Arguably the best development studio in the industry at the moment. Their last game got over 200 GOTY awards, the uncharted games have got hundreds.

And despite tps being a weaker genre than fps and halo being more established than uncharted, uncharted 3 sales were just ~2m behind halo 4. The difference in userbase between the X1 and PS4 will take care of that.

So yeah.... youre wrong.
