I don't understand why the Ps4 with TLOU is fourth when you can have for the same price a Ps4 + TLOU + Bloodborne.

Probably people dont know of the deal.

Well if you go to the Amazon page from the standard PS4 with The Last us Us the Bloodborne + The Last of Us bundle is right there, people are literally 1 click away from a free copy of Bloodborne and a $20 gift card. At least it's #154, the Bloodborne bundle which was something like $435 didn't even get in the top 1000 when I checked it's ranking.

I wouldn't be suprise if some guys bought the TLOU Bundle and at the same time (but separately) Bloodborne.

MLB still only 15 is somewhat worrying.

It releases in like 2 days. Then again it's audience is more of the sport/casual crown. I haven't seen a new trailer in ages? What is going on with the marketing?


it will do fine. I expect 750k-800k lifetime. None of Thegames in the  franchise has never hit the 1MILL mark life time

Marketing that game would be a waste of money, it sells to the same crowd every year. And those guys know when it's coming and will go pick it up regardless.

Why is the MCC bundle of Xbox 1 doing so badly? wasnt it supposed to overtake the assasins creeds bundle?

It was close at one point, but it looks like its loseing grounds to it now.
People just not in the mood for a remastered Halo game?

Its halo... it should be selling gangbusters right?

The game always starts out slow, but it sells consistently through the summer. So I wouldn't not expect significant pre-orders. Because it's opening is right at the end of march I would be surprised to see The Show appear in the top 10 for either March or April NPD.

Regardless of MCC beiong full of Halo they are still all past gen games and the only new thing about it is Halo 2 re-make, which of course isn't new, just prettier. Whoever throught a MCC bundle would be a good idea 5 months after launch, and with the disappointing beginning it had is not good at reading the market.

It's four old games every Halo fan has played before and the MCC was the laughingstock of the games industry for months.  In short, 343i and MS done ****ed it up.  And while its brokenness was fairly common knowledge, it being mostly fixed is something you would only know if you followed games media with some level of consistency.
