Tomb Raider should have been Xb one's $299 console for BF, at all retailers. The way MS has shown this game no love, except when telling everyone it's exclusive to Xbox in 2015, almost suggests MS bought exclusivity just to keep the game off PS4 for a year, but aside from that they really didn't care about the game. If MS could give away 2 Ass Creed games last year, including the new release ACU, then they surely could have given away an actual console exclusive.

With these numbers I'd say PS4 sold 3.8M worldwide, and the X1 sold 1.9M. In November
Just my personal guesses
My prediction for 7M PS4s in Nov+Dec WW is looking quite good, even conservative.

Any word on 3DS sales? We didn't get anything from last month.

Down YOY.......................A lot.

 

I know what the numbers are, but can't tell you for now, i just can say this.

So Wii U faced the same fate of last year, some reported sold out but nothing substantial.

I had a debate with a user, can't remember who, who predicted that Rise of the Tomb Raider will sell around 200k for the month. I was convinced it wouldn't flop that hard. Guess I was wrong and to who I had the debate with you were right.

How did it flop this bad, the signs were there but MS had the power to make this sell. It had the exclusive gloss, it was coming off the back of a succeessful reboot, it had its own bundle, it was releaseing in a peak part of the year and somehow it this happened. That article about MS and SE being happy with sales is a load of bullshit.

I do see some differences with the top 10 selling games from VGC. Though the top 5, at least, in order is accurate. Which is good to see that the work Craig (Machina) and myself put in was worth it!

 


Yeah, congrats on the accuracy.

Considering this is your first shot at the busy period together you guys did great

Wasn't that just the developer (Crystal Dynamics) saying they were happy with how the game turned out? And they pointed out that their job was just to make the game as good as possible, while sales is a question they'd have to ask MS and SE.

 

Ahh, thank you for the correction.
