Very strong titles, so much improvement over PS3 days. Let's hope PS5 can outdo it.

The Uncharted figure was from a year ago, so its safe to assume that it passed the 20M mark alongside Spiderman and God of War

Sony’s IPs Presence came a long way since the PS3 days !



Considering the install base has only increased by 40% I find it staggering how some titles have pretty much sold 3-4 times from their PS3 counter part. Beast level performance. Congratulations to Sony.

Really impressive, especially for GOW which I think is by far the best in the series.

That thread is a freaking Gold Mine now. 
I just saw a recent thread (Spider-man thread) and these specific persons are moving the goal post already.  

OT: 
I am still looking for ZhugeEX tweet where he confirmed that Days Gone and GTD sold 5M plus.

Where the hell is the last of us part II? I know it’s only been updated after 3 days since release (4 million units as June 21st 2020).
But the game should be close to 10 million units by now.

Yep that was a impressive increase in attach ratio, one that Sony certainly didn't have in PS3 time.

That isn't the only thread, now a game needs to sell 30M to be considered a success =p

Perhaps the 10M mark wasn't reached as fast as Spider-Man or so they didn't say it broke record.

I think it would be wise to build a database of historic SIE sales. From all generations. Since the info is so piecemeal it would be a massive advantage having a single database showing it all.

Ratchet and Clank, > 5 million, (Insomniac said it was their best selling game ever before Spiderman).
Bloodborne , Zhuge, 2 million+ in NA alone
Gran Turismo, entire history of sales was released by PD, no info on Sport bar 8-10 million players.



Very impressive sales. I wish Sony would give more up to date sales numbers for some titles.

Any idea what the breakdown for last of us between ps3 and ps4 is.
