If we go by Amazon UK Driveclub standalone version is doing better than the bundle.
| kowenicki said: Yeah in the UK the PS4 deals are very, very good. really advertising the PS$ like crazy here, both 3rd party retailers and SONY ads. At least in the UK, Sony dont seem to be just laying down and accepting the ONE deals. Very competitive here. Possibly the most competitive maket there is. Hard to call the week on hardware, possibly PS4 just edging it or a tie? Either way, both will be still selling gangbusters. |
I think the reason why you are seeing more aggressive pricing in the UK is because both have more breathing room in the UK as far as pricing. I hate to say it but the starting price for both consoles was above what would have been acceptable in the US.... and I understand the taxes argument, but pound for pound, the entry price for an Xbox One now in the UK is over $200 USD cheaper than when it launched. Neither Sony, or Microsoft are going to do that in the US.

You're wrong on this one. Driveclub is just one of the many bundles available in UK. There is also PS4 standalone, PS4 + GTA V, PS4 + Far Cry 4, PS4 + FIFA 15 + Minecraft, PS4 + COD: AW on Amazon UK itself. So most likely after playing the game people realised how awesome it is and bought it.

Read what I put after. I know there are other bundles out there, but Driveclub is easily the most bundled game.

Yep, I can't see many people getting consoles from there at the moment. Awful bundles compared to Game. Can't believe I'm saying that!

Yes within margin of error. It's calculated on WOW differences given my GFK CT.

Yet he said using Amazon is not a good indicator for UK as others seem to fit better.
| kowenicki said: No, you're wrong. Amazon isn't the main player in the UK. the game is heavily bundles in most of the decent value bundles out there. |
Is it? Most bundles I've seen don't have Drive club included, inc the Argos one which is the better one I've seen. I think word of mouth post patch and the all the gifs flying around the internet are probably having a bigger impact than people think.
RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

It's probably having some impact but the game wouldn't be so high without the bundles. Doesn't really matter though since the game should now be over 1m globally and therefore not a flop!

So Ryse isn't a flop either then?
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
