Is this how we've started to defend Uncharted 4 now? Comparing it to historical flops and saying that it wasn't a big a flop as them? Halo 5 was a flop, a HUGE flop. Saying PS4's Uncharted 4, which I'd say draws parallels to 360's Halo 3, performed better than one of (as I've already said) the biggest flops and falls from grace of all time, is not saying anything really besides that it wasn't an outright failure. Like I said, sales so far are not great and they're not terrible. At worst, it's a disappointment and a bomb, and at best it met expectations and nothing beyond them. The most worrying part is no PR whatsoever, and that the game already being discounted (which suggests excess stock, suggesting that it did not meet expectations). Expect to see this game in bargain bins and in console bundles in 6-12 months. |
"‘Uncharted 4’ is by far the most successful launch in the series beating ‘Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deceptions' debut week by 66%"

First week sales in the UK: "Uncharted 4" > "Halo 5 + Rise of the tombraider"
Uncharted 4 = 192k+ first week sales in the UK.
Rise of the tombraider = 42k first week sales in the UK.
Halo 5 = 150k sales first week in the UK.
Thats just 1 country.
Also apart from England and the USA, most places Playstation is like x4 times as big as Xbox.
Uncharted 4 is going to sell well.
The doom and gloom is too early.
Pretty sure at E3 sony will be bragging about sales numbers for Uncharted.
