I am talking data as per VGChartz, plus digital could be a different story.

vgchartz has been known to add digital sales estimate to their sales data

Which of those franchises has made it to 10 million on a single platform? Not Fifa, not Ass Creed. Cod, yes because it's Cod. GT sometimes makes it to 10 million but not consistently and it's been a flagship franchise since PS1.

FIFA 15 sold 17million copies

ASSASSINS CREED 3 sold 12million copies

CALL OF DUTY - you urself know

GRAN TURISMO - GT1,3,4,5 all sold over 10million and GT2 sold over 9.5million - pretty consistant enough

FINAL FANTASY 7 sold 12million copies

Only 1 out of 5 Halo games has passed 10 million physical.

HALO - halo 3 sold over 10million and HALO 4,REACH,ODST came close to 10million

TLOU needed a PS4 remaster to reach 10 million, unconfirmed and still only with digital added. TLOU IS a better game than Uncharted.

LAST OF US has most likely sold 10million total

Anyway the options are around 7 million and around 12 million, so I went with 7 million because I don't think it will go above 9.5 and below 9.5 means closer to 7 than 12.

but atleast in ur post you can say 9.5million

it will atleast make 10million plus SONY will bundle it so it will cross 12million

I asked single platform and you gave me multiplatform sales.Several franchises you've listed have relied on multiplatform sales to cross 10 million. Uncharted will not benefit from multiplatform release so you can't compare the likes of Ass Creed and Fifa sales on all the platforms to project 10 million for UC4 on PS4. We don't know what games VGC has added digital sales to, and more than likely this site only adds digital sales when it's a known quantity, like download code bundled with hardware. It can't count digital sales from people who already own the hardware, unless VGC uses an estimate which facotrs in genre and platform and applies a % of physical which has been derived from some industry data. It is possible that there is industry data out there which can be used to get a rough estimate of digital sales on consoles, because these days publishers seem to include digital sales % in quarterly reports. But AFAIK VGC is not doing this across all games.
