Although 10 will be hard to hit, I don't think it's impossible. It's now bundled and will also sell pretty decent over it's first holiday. Remember that U4 released in a slow part of the year. Personally I don't think it will do it in 2016 but it's possible it could do it further down the line.

Yeah its not impossible but i dont see it happening unless Sony makes it the main bundle next year like COD BO3 or if it comes to the PS5.

It's at about 4m retail as of today (Vgchartz is a few weeks behind).  Including digital it's at about 5m. Let's say the bundle boosts it to 6m. I can see the game between now and January selling 1.5m non bundled easily.  That's 7.5m. The game will be only out 8 months.  I can't see how UC4 won't hit 10m+.  These games will sell every year until the ps5 comes out and even after that it will sell a little.

Aaand. Ps4 bo above xone s.
The massacare it has begun

The xbox never stood a chance. It will need another price cut this holiday.  $50 at least.  And permanent not temporary.

I thought it was odd that the Slim hadn't been showing up for pre-order in the US yet. Damn good choice of a game, though I almost expected them to throw in the Nathan Drake collection as well to do the Uncharted bundle.

The PS4 Neo is cheaper than I expected.

Same. I was expecting $499, hoping for $449, then they hit me with the $399. It's why i'm jumping on it immediately.

If it was at 5ml Sony would have said something. The bundle Wont sell maybe 600k and the game 500k. If its at 5m then thats 6.1ml by the end of the year. It migt do 1.5ml next year so 7.6ml by Jan 2018. The PS5 will come out 2019 or 2020 and i cant see it reaching 10ml by then. And this is if the game sold 5ml by now. I can go into detail more when i get to a PC.

So by January you thibk it will only be at 6m~ retail.  I'm sorry but come January you will see why this is a future 10m seller.

In all fairness jason we hear that argument way to much and it just isn't true.
