I could very well be wrong, but I think it is saying that The Order sold 245,000 in the US in 2 days(was released February 20th, this chart is up until the 21st of February....). Surely that is not right?

Yes that is correct. At least as far as I am aware, most PS games come out on the same weekday, Thursday. (I think sometimes it's Tuesday)

Regardless, yes, it's 2 days of sales, but you also have to factor in that these 2 days are the majority of sales for the week. The full 7 days will probably be about 350k or slightly more. This is because those first two days are loaded to the gills with preorders.


Valid point about the first 2 days being the most loaded. I would say if it hit 350,000 copies first week in the US, that is quite an achievement considering the very poor reviews to obtained and the months of bad hype prior to launch. Very interested to see the complete world wide sales...

Two days, two days, meh almost any release only gets two days of sales on these charts. I'm also slightly disappointed by The Order's opening numbers, but it isn't that bad anyway, should make it about 500k WW and a million seller somewhere in the next couple weeks.

I think it did very well to sell 245,000 in the US in two days considering it really is not a good game lol. Most major games are released on a Tuesday in the US. The Order was released on a Friday.

We used to have timely, inaccurate but adjusted numbers.

Now we have late, inaccurate, unadjusted numbers. :(



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Looks like I need to break out the old dusty hashtags.

Wonder why the Wii U is still beasting though.

Ps4 more than doubled XB1 ww and outsell vita, wiiu and xb1 combined....... Amazing feat this early in the year!

To those saying "only 2 days" to the Order's first week sales that doesn't have much affect.

PS4 still undertracked... not that this needs stating.

Wait a minute. Wasn't the announcement of 20.2m PS4 sold through for the end of Feb? How the hell is VGC going to square this?

When most major games are released in the US on a Tuesday(Advanced Warfare, Evolve, Alien Isolation, Sunset Overdrive to name a few) giving them a full 5 days on the chart compared to 2, it needs to at least be considered.
