Did not think people would wait till November to play it but it seems that they did.

I waited...unfortunately...because the game sucked big time. They are not getting my money again for a long time,

Should sell very well. I think the Xbox One sales will be lower because more people will buy it digitally with their EA access discount.


+ bundles sales, which wont be tracked by npd

 

so ps4>xb1 in the npd statement.

but xb1 overall will be > ps4 by a low margin

Why wouldn't bundle sales be tracked? They usually are right? The Titanfall bundle was tracked wasn't it?

No they don't.



the last one i played on ps4 was a steaming pile of garbage at best. it will be at the very least a year or 2 before i think about it. i hope it bombs to be honest.

hopefully less than 1m sells across the board.



 

I can't wait to hear the Nintoddlers crying when xbox one destroys the Wii U in sells.

NPD does track bundles. They did it with TF anyway.

Madden on 360 sold more than it did on PS3 because the gap was large in MS's favor in the last gen. I expect the sales this gen to show favor towards PS4 due to the change in circumstances this gen.

That's not the only reason. Microsoft has a big marketing deal with the NFL and now with deals with EA as well they are sure going to market the Xbox One version a lot more than the PS4 version. I think it will still sell more overall on Xbox.


The NFL deal is a bit of an x factor for it for this gen, absolutely.  I just don't think it is going to be enough to keep the sales sustained on XB1.  I think the initial sales on XB1 will be greater, in small part due to the bundling of the game.  Lifetime though I expect the PS4 to come out ahead on it.



The Xbox One bundle will certainly help Madden 15 keep pace with it's PS4 counterpart. However, I think the following years to come will be significantly in favor of the PS4 version due to Sony increasing the systems market share in the US over time.



Madden is a game Americans buy. Expect XBO to sell more as the sales here are much closer than WW.
