Taking into account that Zelda sold over
900k Ghost recon sold insanely well.

Year To Date (all 2017 months combined):
  1. Ghost Recon: Wildlands (Ubisoft)
  2. For Honor (Ubisoft)
  3. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Nintendo)
  4. Resident Evil 7 (Capcom)
  5. Mass Effect: Andromeda (Electronic Arts)
  6. Grand Theft Auto V (Take-Two)
  7. Horizon: Zero Dawn (Sony)
  8. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare (Activision Blizzard)
  9. NBA 2K17 (Take-Two)
  10. Battlefield 1 (Electronic Arts)

Looks like for honor is a huge hit as well.

Have to remember, the multi-plats count digital, the exclusives don't.

This is true. Otherwise Snipperclips would be right up there. I'm being dead serious too. That game has been No. 1 on the eshop every day since they started showing the best sellers list

They MS gon start releasing digital sales figures next month. And I would like to ask when is that gon be useful? Not one game got a damn release date for the rest of the year:mjlol:
1.) In a month when nothing comes out, your top exclusives are barely selling more than old games like nba2k17. If halo or gears dropped as recently as those Sony exclusives it would be another story. That's why You champions are focusing on this month :banderas:

But the truth is this...

1.) We have a bunch of exclusives coming this year, you can stop saying otherwise because that shows me you're mad

2.) Scorpio is what it is and that has you all in your feelings

Y'all argument really doesn't pass logic.

Nier sold about 1 million copies. There's about 50 million PS4 consoles out there.

1/50th of PS4 owners purchased neir.

It can't be titles like Nier driving PS4 sales:jbhmm:

The legs on gta v makes no sense. :dead:

It's just absurd. :heh:

It's ALWAYS been like that though. The shyt is insane. That's why Take 2 makes so much bread. Their games just don't depreciate in value that much so they getting TONS of revenue YEARS later.

Glad I copped that Take 2 stock at 18 bucks. shyt is up almost 3.5 times what I paid for it. :blessed:

Nah the other gtas were a fraction of the success of this one.

Which is nuts because those were also in sales successful.


Like I said,Rockstar will never be the same company now. For better or worse. Going forward online is going to be there focus.

I don't think the traditional "system" seller game exist anymore esp with the major 3rd party exclusive games not really existing any more. Most console hardware spikes are during the holidays.

Exclusives matter more in the sense of getting to play other shyt you can't get on other platforms. You know going in you'll be able to play the other 90/95 percent of games on other platforms, so having a good variety of exclusive shyt you can't get on other hardware is absolutely important.

Madden, COD, 2K, and GTA are the premier games purchased by the masses every year. The shyt we act crazy over on this forum doesn't matter to those cats for the most part. As long as they get those games, they good.
