AC franchise is on the slippery slope. They basically decided after AC2 to milk the shite out of it and even they must have known the gravy train would halt at some point. This could have been an epic everlasting franchise like GTA if they just avoided a yearly release. Won't be long before it's the next Need For Speed.

Exactly what I wanted to say.

Yearly releases without any kind of ambition behind them to deliver something new and refreshing. If these numbers are true, then well deserved decline.

So PS4 has done 1.4 million units in a week, even before BF if these numbers are to be believed?
IMO PS4 should have done at least 13.5M, although I think 14M by the end of last month is more likely, I still think it's under tracked, should be closer to 15 million, if not smashed that by the 15th.

At this rate we'll probably be looking at 16.5M by the end of this month.

Nope, that's adjustments for previous weeks included as well.


Going back to the 8th it's still at 13M, hasn't been adjusted yet in the weeks before that.

Can anyone please separate sales by region?

Can't believe people actually bought Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.

I wonder if they could preserve the series longevity by putting it on a 2 year release cycle. Can a publisher like Ubi even do that anymore? They massively inflated their stock price with the milking of this. I'm not sure investors would approve with a drop in revenue even if it's the best for the series survival.

Although, hopefully it won't be long until the chart on the front page updates with the new numbers, then we can just look at that

900k of it is from adjustments. The changes (and this weeks sales) haven't been added to the main database yet, but they're up on the HW tracker: http://www.vgchartz.com/tools/hw_date.php

You can compare it to the current database to see which weeks were adjusted.

PS4 over 500k for the week! Beautiful! Also, I expected more out of Halo than that for a launch.

Upward adjustments for both ps4 and xb1 it seems. A 16 million sold through announent at the december even doesnt seem to much out of the question.
