PlayStation 4 sells games like no other. With (Fifa and Call of Duty have probably already sold five million by now) two five million sellers, Destiny and Gta V already four million by now, and Watch Dogs at three million being a new ip, twenty plus million sellers this early in it's life cycle is crazy. Uncharted 4, being as hyped, loved, and as critically acclaimed as it is considering all of these million sellers, by the time it comes out it will be a ten million seller. I also think it will sell three million in it's first week.

 

I don't know how to make a poll, but if I did it would ask if you guys think this will happen or not. (first thread ever)


I highly doubt UC4 will sell anywhere near 10m. UC3 sold 6.5m on a system with over 80m sold world wide and comiong off one of the most acclaimed games of last gen in UC2. UC4 has a major disadvantage since its being released on a platform no where near the sales base of its predessor and its coming off the hype of UC3 which wasnt as great as many made it out to believe. I would predict 4 to 7m tops. I am basing this off Uncharteds history.


Sorry but you seem to have some serious misconceptions. Once Uncharted 4 is released the PS4 will have sold ~30-35 million units and that number will grow by an additional ~15-20 million in the following year. The size of the PS4's userbase will in no way restrict the popularity of Uncharted 4. Gran Turismo 3 outsold GT4 and the PS2's userbase was tiny compared to when GT4 launched. Additionally, I must take issue with your statement that you based your prediction off of Uncharted's history because this is clearly not the case. If you did use the sales data of the past titles you would arrive at the conclusion that Uncharted 3 will sell at least 7 million units, not significantly less. Sorry but 4 million is not even a remote possilibility unless Uncharted 4 is a huge critical failure.
