Halo 5 vs Uncharted 4 first week

Halo 5 109 27.88%
 
Uncharted 4 282 72.12%
 
Total:391

Don't think Halo 5 is selling that well, and I think U4 will get that TLOU boost for Naughty Dog. That game sold over 10 million and played by about 15 million or more so I think that will come into play. While halo last game split people and this one seems to as well.

According to reports, Halo 5 outsold the MCC by 50% in the UK. If we stretch that worldwide, Halo 5 is selling about 1.6 million FW. While that's more than any Uncharted game to date, that's pretty low for Halo and very close to TLoU did. With ND's extended star power among fans after TLoU, and the Uncharted audience being potentially much higher because of the Xbox exodus, I can see Uncharted winning FW. Worldwide there's no question. The reviews for 5 aren't looking too too hot, so there'll be some slight backlash for that. Plus Uncharted is going to be marketed to all hell and bundled, whereas MS is going for a "look at all our games" marketing strategy instead of any one game. 


1.6 million FW? There's no way MGSV on the PS4 sold as much as Halo 5 FW. If that's true then that's a disaster.

I...I can't imagine it sold less than 2.5 million first week, and even that would be a huge drop from past Halo games.

According to the UK report, it's sold half of what Halo 4 did FW in the UK and is worse than ODST FW there too. The UK is supposed to be a big Halo market, no? If it's doing worse than goddamn ODST FW there, does that, on paper, somehow not spell bad things for the US market? Going by this it's not out of the question that Halo 5 is gonna do pretty low FW. Given, ODST still did 2.2m FW riding entirely on Halo 3's back and the Reach beta, but that was an entirely different time. Numbers and trends don't lie, though, so if H5 is doing 70% of ODST...oh look, 1.5m FW. Unless you think the US market is going to be exceedingly strong like never seen before, going against a VERY solid trend that Halo has had for about a decade, Halo 5 is not putting up Halo numbers FW. Sorry.



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

Halo 5... Why?

Because Uncharted's history with sales. Pretty simple really. Not really sure why we're going to compare  two games that are in different leagues in terms of sales.



Current gaming platforms - Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, New 3DS, PC

Halo 5 will outsell it, Uncharted will have better sp, Halo, better mp.



One consoles sold close to 15m, ones sold close to 30m, do you honestly think comparing title sales across these platforms is an accurate gauge of the titles popularity?

Things are gradually looking to be in UC4's favor. Almost double the install base isn't a number to just laugh off.

U4 will outsell Halo 5 easily.Halo 5 will only sell about 7 mil total and U4 will sell over 10 million.Uncharted is the center piece of the PS4 and it has a larger install base,wile Halo 5 does not.First week sales are irrelevant,but Uncharted does not have any competition and will get better reviews.

We have literally been doing that since last gen when people compared 360 software sales to PS3 when the 360 had a lead, how is it any different?



"There is only one race, the pathetic begging race"

Before October I would've given this to Halo hands down. But when I see how the NDC bundle is flying off the shelves this should be an easy win for UC4.



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

Doing silly things for a long time doesnt make them not silly.
