PS4 dominating in the UK again. It seems these exclusive advertising deals aren't doing MS any good whatsoever.

Wut? How do you know that? Xbone could've outsold the PS4 this week too for all we know

One would think that if one version charts above the other version then that version sold more ... no? How else are places in the charts decided?

Ohh right I thought you meant the console selling more. PS4 version of CoD sold more than the Xbone version in its first week yet the Xbone console still sold more

My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

No major surprises here.

Also what's up with all the stuff on the right of the screen?

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Really interesting week actually.

New releases - kinda cool to see the PS4 versions of the two advertised exclusives doing better (though it's expected), but what happened to Dragon Age PS4 vs. XB1? That's a huge gap in terms of chart placement which is strange.

And then, XB1 versions of CoD and FIFA selling better. What is going on!

Drops are brutal though. Maybe word of mouth is getting around about Master Chief Collection now, because that's an absolute plummet. Vita version of Minecraft dying as well - expected, given the userbase discrepancy, but I had held out hope it was a legs seller like the other versions.

Looks like Sunset Overdrive will be gone next week too, which is a shame. I had hoped this would've been the game that would've been Insomniac's breakout success. It's certainly not done badly, but I don't think it's doing what they needed.

Huh?
Did u look at the GtaV split?

It clearly does not work that well
1,4:1 sales ratio only, while FarCry 4 has 1,65:1

It works for both and don't work for both. Always depends on the game and many other factors

Thas really some weird selectiv perception

Are you telling me that this proves I'm wrong when I say the advertising deals help Sony but not MS?

GTA5

58% PS4

41% XB1

Far Cry 4

Good to hear that FC4 is popular. Still I didn't think it would be more popular than DAI. Also the DAI split between PS4/X1 is weird. Seems Playstation really is the console of choice for RPG fans.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Very happy for Far Cry, that game deserves to sell a lot, my GOTY.

GTA #1 was expected, no surprises there, but i am surprised that Dragon Age charted below FIFA. And that it sold the same as DA2, which was on 2 platforms instead of 4 (not counting PC). And that is with great reviews releasing a week earlier. Wouldn't surprise me if it dropped sharply later on, despite it being a great game.
