Forums - Sales Discussion - Global lifetime sales: Uncharted 4 PS4 vs Halo 5 Xbox1

 

Which game will sell more lifetime globally?

Halo 5 Xbox1 80 10.51%
 
Total:761

I think Uncharted 4 should double the global lifetime sale of Halo 5. 

Last year, it was almost unthinkable that Uncharted 4 would outsell Halo 5.   Currently, Halo 5 sits at 3.88 million sold.  Uncharted 4 may sell 2 million in the 1st week and probably will sell 7-8 million total.

Global Total as of 30th Apr 2016 (units): 3.88m
Platform: Xbox One
Developer: 343 Industries Genre: Shooter

Wait, when was it unthinkable? I thought it was pretty clearly inevitable even two years ago on userbase alone!



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!

Yeah, no, it wasn't unthinkable. I remember one of Xbox's biggest fan on this site, Nobleteam360, making a prediction years ago that Uncharted 4 would outsell Halo 5.

No, he predicted a Halo 5 win.

It wasn't, I have always been fully expecting and predicting it.

Wasn't expecting it to double it sales, though XP
Halo underperformed quite a lot from my expectations.

 

Almost everyone in this thread chose Halo 5 (except you and me)

I'm pretty sure there are couple other threads where the Xbox folks claimed that Halo 5 would outsell any PS4 exclusive

He might have some memory problems, but he definitively predicted Uncharted 4 outselling Halo 5. He even made a thread about it, and it was earlier than the one you posted. (This thread was in January 2014, BraLoD was in June)

NobleTeam360's quote in that thread:

I know what am I thinking? I think by time Uncharted 4 comes out PS4 will have a much bigger install base than Xbox One. I think that much alone can give Uncharted 4 a shot at selling more than Halo 5. I also think Halo is going to start feeling series fatigue with the release of Halo 5. Regardless both will sell very well.

 

It's not "unthinkable". As I said, even a huge Xbox fan as Noble predicted Uncharted 4 beating Halo 5 in sales, even if he later made a contradictory prediction about it.

Uncharted is a bigger franchise than Halo now, i think its safe to say Uncharted will outsell Halo 5 in 1-2 months.

I'm not sure I'd call it bigger, as I think Halo still has sold much more than Uncharted, but one can't deny Uncharted has become the iconic PS franchise, rivalizing Master Chief's image as the one in Xbox.

I think Halo is on the decline and Uncharted will peak with this entry. i dont think we will see another Uncharted for a long time if ever.
