I don't think any exclusive on any console (besides Nintendo consoles) will ever have a chance of being the best-selling game until COD dies.

Fuck CoD, nothing will come close to beating GTA.

It has the potential to outsell Halo 5. It could sell up to 5 million.

The next COD will probably sell more than GTAV on both consoles, again. That said, on both systems the amount of units sold from a last gen game on both systems is truly amazing but as it currently stands, COD is just the top selling game, in almost every iteration.

But yeah, my point was that exclusives won't be on top of the charts and whether it's 5x times COD or 2x GTA doesn't really matter in that case.

I see GOW4 as the second best selling exclusive. Dont see it outselling halo 5.

Of Course not, and it won't be in the TOP 5.

Maybe best selling exclusives, At best.

 

Two contradictory statements. Because if "maybe best selling exclusive" means the game must be, at least, on the Top 5, which you're already dismissing on the first sentence.

 

So, you think this TOP 5 will remain the same forever?

You don't think the incoming release as Call of Duty Infinite Warfare, Battlefield 1, GTA 6 ecc won't make the TOP 5?

Of course they will, and be a part of the TOP 5 will be even more hard for Gears.

No, the reception for the beta wasn't great, I enjoyed playing it but the game needs a lot of work in this state and except a delay I expect lukewarm reception and sales. Gives me a bit a Halo 5 vibe a game that doesn't have enough at release but will get new modes/updates later on for free.






JRPGfan on 13 May 2016

I think it ll sell more than the latest Halo did.

Will it beat GTA or CoD ? who knows.



Kerotan on 13 May 2016

It has no chance of beating cod. Stopped reading the list after that because what's the point.



Blood_Tears on 13 May 2016

No chance in that happening, especially since MS lost a huge % of the NA user base to PS4. What is it like 30% or more of PS4's base is from former 360 owners? Gears, like Halo 5 will fall way short of the older titles in the franchise.

Halo is much bigger and it's not even at 4 million. I see Gears 4 doing a bit better than Quantum Break tbh.
