Forums - Sales Discussion - Where Call of Duty Black Ops III will sell more in the US: PS4 or XB1?

 

???

PS4 299 79.95%
 
XB1 75 20.05%
 
Total:374

As we know, Ghost and Advanced Warfare sold better on XB1.

First time, i thought was going to happen again with Black Ops III, but now that Sony have the exclusive marketing, what do you think?

I expect a very close battle, but i will go with PS4.

The last two were close enough in sales that I think the announcement of DLC timed exclusivity and the fact that PS4 will probably be the main console featured in advertising makes me think that PS4 will come out ahead on this one.

How do you know it was close?



PS4



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

1. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (360) > 2m
2. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (XBO) < 2 m
3. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (PS4)
4. Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS (3DS) > 1.7m

That's mean a probabily 10% difference or so...

Don't use VGChartz like a source, used NPD.

You can do that if you like, I'll happily use VGC unless other information comes forth proving its estimates in this case inaccurate.  Your NPD analysis seems to fit perfectly well with what VGC says.

If sales were really close before, then the Sony marketing deal for BO3 should push sales over to PS4 side.
