The blue one is FFXV, a multiplatform game and you know what the red line is...

Uncharted 4. An exclusive.

If I was SE, I will panicked already.

Hype for me was killed during the pretty terrible showing at E3. The only reason I haven't cancelled my pre-order yet is because I have the Ultimate Collector's Edition pre-ordered and I'm scared I may change my mind later on and regret cancelling it. I'm sure I'll end up getting the game eventually, but I'm not sure about getting it day 1 anymore.

Hype is dying because:

1-Games that are shown over years tend to lose appeal. The more a person sees something the less they pay attention.
2-I hear people were not impressed by the 2 demos.

From Neogaf's Abdiel:

Lol. Dampened the hype, huh? I guess that's GAF for you.

Preorders for the game are higher than ever, folks. We didn't lose any copies after E3, though the MS showing didn't earn it any new ones for the XB1 version, it seems like.

It's one of the highest preordered games I have in my list of SKUs right now, it's been accumulating for awhile, but the PS4 SKU has been building steady and after some of the showings with Uncovered and so on, it's gotten solid boosts. I think it's going to do well for itself.

Not COD numbers or anything. But that would be absurd anyway.

Edit - By the way, this thread is hilarious. Seriously guys. Hyperbole out the ass, oh my god you all are amazing. <3

I hope he's right on the game preorders but the game needs more media coverage especially after that tragic E3 demo.

it's dying because it should have came out 7 years ago....

Lets take a look at the Opening Sales, and lifetime of the last 3 single player Final Fantasy games.

FFXV got to pull some major punches. I've already dicided to get a copy of the game, but so far my hype is all gone, and if these numbers is something to go by, then it holds some weight i guess.

(2009) Final Fantasy XIII
Frist week opening Japan sales: 1,501,965
PS3: 4.95 million
X360: 1.95 million
Steam: 590,000

(2011) Final Fantasy XIII-2
First week opening Japan sales: 524,217
PS3/X360: 3.1 million
JP: 874,911
Steam: 365,000

(2013) Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII
First week opening Japan sales: 277,082
PS3/X360: 800,000
Steam: 170,000

I not sure where going with this.

Exclusives ALWAYS get more hype/buzz than multi platform games. Thats normal. Hell the new CoD was revealed to low fanfare ... It will still do its 15-20mill whatever. MGSV didnt have anywhere near MGS4 but it didnt stop mgsv series from nearing 10mill.

I dunno I think it's pretty hyped. And with the movie releasing in Japan soon I imagine if the movie is good that the hype will increase.

That's not true considering MGSV had more buzz and media coverage than MGS4. Call of Duty Black Ops3 had more coverage than Uncharted 4.

Another thing -How did all that Uncharted 4 hype translate to sales? It has long way to go in just overtaking the collection.

Internet hype doesnt mean anything. Been proven many timed especially in regards to FF
