So halo is still bigger than uncharted
Halo 935k in one week
UC less than 1m in 3 weeks

NPD does not count bundles. So U4 could still be over 1m including bundles.

A clean sweep for PS4 on multiplat games in the US is awesome! Black ops also sold best on PS4 because of the main bundle regardless.

Yes, this really does show us how bundles affect sales at retail:

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End (PS4)
Doom (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
Overwatch (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
Battleborn (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
Grand Theft Auto V (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3, PC)
Minecraft (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
NBA 2K16 (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
Call of Duty: Black Ops III (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)
MLB 16: The Show (PS4, PS3)
Dark Souls III (PS4, Xbox One)

The PS5 Exists.

Very true

Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Most likely eventually, but not right away.

Haha. True. Sony being humbled. MS being surprised that gaming hours grow with more consoles sold. Maybe silence would be a good thing for both.

Ok. Makes sense. Thanks.

But I wanna know how many times people have pressed the "A" button on Xbox One this month.

Haha. Yeah, and how many times the tiger kitten has been petted in Kinectimals.

Uncharted 4 may be under 1 mill (above when counting bundles and digital) but it's still quite a feat to take the top spot above Doom.

I know where I went wrong with my prediction. I didn't account for preordered PS4 Uncharted bundles. Still XB1 is low considering the crazy sales they had in the final week.
