so around 95%. PS4 should be above 20k for the week easily. 



Around the Network

Don't forget that first week sales include the pre-orders. So that's normal for such a hyped game (with many pre-orders) to fall, pun intended, by 73% the second week.

Need for Speed Rivals? Did that just launch on PS4?


It did. There is a star next to it on the list = New Entry.


No it didnt it was out on PS4 at launch, this just mean its a re-entry, probably because of a spike in PS4 sales with the infamous bundle

Ooops, you are right, just checked the Star icon. Good for NFS then!

Who is this

Titanfall didnt sell more so I will take what he says with a pinch if you dont mind.

 


I think he meant sold more in total, not this week. 

But yeah no idea who this is. 

Or Xb one + PC.

I should expect PS4 to be above Xb one this week, usual 50% drop post big release for Xb one, and more PS4s on the market because of inFamous bundle.

People probably shouldn't be surprised if inFamous drops 70+% next week.

Globally inFamous should do about 500K, which is great, 200K more than inFamous 2.

70% drop is totally normal, especially for a game as hyped for launch as this on a platform with such a small install base.

Infamous will be the same, MGS might hold a bit better with people picking it up week 2 after playing infamous week 1



Around the Network

What has been said by this Joe Anderson journalist makes sense. Just like in Titanfall week, there was all the preordered inFamous bundles that have built up over the last month or so, plus a large advertising campaign and a big new release. Hopefully PS4 sales are over 15k for the week and the same bump happens across Europe.



is it normal that no wii u game charted?

I think we can be a little more optimistic than that ;)

If it is doing over or around 100k in the UK alone, it should be comfortably past 500k for the week.  Remember PS4 is in 48 territories, not just 13 ;)
