Wow, I'm actually surprised MCC was ahead of AC Unity on PS4. I wasn't expecting that.

Parity really did bad for the AC standards... it sold less than the PS4 version of Watch Dogs (new IP).

MCC did really great... ~110k for a remaster/remake is really great.

Yeah Ubisoft really messed up. It won't have good legs either cause the reviews were so average and the game has had so much negative press.

Lol what are u talking about. Halo cea did 54k first week. Either way if mcc did 80k or 160k it's between 55% up and 200%up on cea. That doesn't include digital either. Cea didn't get a digital release at launch, mcc did.

MCC is Halo 1 through 4 updated for the price of one game vs. only Halo 1 in CEA. Hardly a fair comparison lol.

Yeah ikr, the install base difference is massive. Not fair at all

Eh you don't think most Halo fans already have the XB1? 


No lol. Still quite a few still on 360 and/or haven't purchased it yet. 



Hey, nice for Halo HD beating out both Assassin's Creeds.  Not bad.  I have seen the game heavily advertised over here (it was alllllll over the tube when I was in London on Sunday) but still, Assassin's Creed gets advertised a lot too!

And I'm pleased for the Vita version of Minecraft.  Although I fully expect it won't have the legs of the other versions due to lack of install base (hence the bigger opening), it's still a positive thing to see.

Which is why it's such a shame that Tales of Hearts R effectively bombed this week.  Not even in the top 40.  Bleh.

Otherwise... Lego Batman seems to have done alright I guess.  It'll be a Christmas game, but it just hasn't found a new home casual console since the Wii died I guess.  360 will support it for a while, but it seems there's no successor in sight.

Pro Evo and Assassin's Creed Rogue, however... eep.  I'm guessing the latter will get ported to current gen soon.

Can't
Halo 3 sold about 12m

XB1 is not even at 10m sold through.

Halo 3 is the anomaly. All other Halos have sold less than 10m. Also, I said Halo fans not Halo buyers. Not everyone who bought the past games is a "fan", I look at fans as the hardcore audience that is willing to buy a system for the game.

there are not 13M Halo Fans. Halo 3 also came out just before COD4 so it took another year or two before COD took over consoles and damaged every other shooters sales. Halo 5 sales won't be as big as Halo 3 anyway that's for sure. You can count on that. 

And you won't see a Halo 5 HW boost for the X1 that's anything the boost Halo 3 gave the 360. Partially due to the PS4 being the dominant console and partially due to MCC denting some of the impact it would of had.

There are more than 14M Halo Fans. All depends on ur defintion of Fans.
What about Uncharted Fans? 5M maybe or less?
What about Gran Turismo? Below 10M?
Mario Fans? 4M right now?

Yes, Halo 5 will sell less than Halo 3, but the hardware boost will probably be even bigger. It's way easier to boost a lower selling system. 600% for Mario Kart 8 is the best example. Or do u talk about absolut numbers? Because increase or decrease are in % generally. Otherwise it would be non compareable...

Halo 5 will still easily manage 8m+, and probably 10m. And what about the Cod decline since Ghosts? Where are all the shooter Fans? Maybe some will come back to Halo. Especially after the bad reception of Destiny. It all depeds, if the game will be a high quality top notch one and without launch issues, that spread bad word of mouth, like MCC.

But even 8m is more than Xbox Ones out there right now. Or is the Xb1 at 8m sold through now already?
