Support NeoGAF

[Mooreberg]

Looks like releasing after Black Friday and early word of bad ports hurt Just Cause 3. GTA V's longevity is remarkable.

 

[Somnia]

Jesus at Fifa being > 625k and being #10

 

[piccio_ssl]

...holy fuck at Minecraft Story Mode selling more than 625,000 units at retail. HOLY FUCK.

nvm

 

[yongeandcollege]

That yearly top 10 illustrates why NX needs real third party support.

 

[Obliterator]

Damn that means Siege did really well.

Yeah people on this site were really underestimating it.

Would you be surprised if I told you its selling so well that it is having stock issues?

 

[Yurikerr]

>625k to get into top 10 this year.

There's a really good question.

Wow, congrats Telltale. (And rockstar, again)

Edit: or is it >625K for the YTD chart?

 

[Lacrus]

yea no way TR sold over 1 million, sorry but calling PR BS. Has not charted once in Nov-Dec and its dead in the UK.

 

[StoopKid]

What happened to Halo 5...

Yea halo just went and passed.

Seems like no one is talking about it.

 

[SolidAwesome]

No way in hell Tomb Raider sold a million.

 

[theprodigy]

This means I won an avatarbet.

But what do they mean by wide margin?

you can fit 5 Vita YTDs in that gap

 

[Ryng_tolu]

Full Year:

1. Call of Duty: Black Ops III (Activision Blizzard | Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)

3. Fallout 4 (Bethesda Softworks | PS4, Xbox One, PC)

5. Grand Theft Auto V (Take-Two | PS4, Xbox One) 360, PS3, PC)

For reference, Mortal Kombat X sold 1.25 million first month. Which mean that by now is WELL over those numbers.

 

[allan-bh]

Fallout 4 standalone sold better on PS4.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Now to wait for numbers .
Software will mostly likely look different when adding bundles .
PS4 must has sold a good number of SW bundles.

 

[Wagram]

PS4 #1

[Kysen]

How did Halo not make it into top 10 yearly?

 

[pswii60]

It's not like that including bundles.
Fallout 4 sold more on Xbox but COD and especially Star Wars not.

But NPD doesn't include bundles, so XBO does take the top two spots. NPD doesn't include digital either while we're at it.

 

[minx]

What happened to Halo 5...

There isn't a single non muliplatform game on there. It's pretty simple to figure out.

 

[bombshell]

WAIT. This is a mistake!

Correction: 3.) Fallout 4 (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

Sorry! I was rushing this one today a bit because numbers came in late, and I had a lot going on at once.

Quoting this, because nobody quoted it yet.

 

[DeepEnigma]

PlayStation 4 outsold Xbox One in December

Here’s the statement from Sony:

“As we reflect on an amazing year, we want to thank fans and partners for making PlayStation 4 the top selling console in December and in 2015. PS4 also had the strongest third-party software sales in 2015 in the U.S., according to NPD.

The momentum and enthusiasm for the platform continued throughout the year, resulting in cumulative sales of more than 35.9 million since the launch of PS4. During the holiday season alone, more than 5.7 million PS4s and 35 million PS4 games were sold through to consumers worldwide. We look forward to another great year and bringing an extensive portfolio of games from our publisher partners and SCE Worldwide Studios to fans in 2016.”

 

[Past]

Two of the three were featured bundles for PS4 though.

Does it really matter? I doubt there were many Battlefront and Blops 3 bundles left in December.

 

[Somnia]

yea no way TR sold over 1 million, sorry but calling PR BS. Has not charted once in Nov-Dec and its dead in the UK.

You realize #10 is >625k. Tomb Raider only needed to sell 350-400k in Dec realistically to hit a million.

 

[Welfare]

Yeah people on this site were really underestimating it.

Would you be surprised if I told you its selling so well that it is having stock issues?

Where? In the US? Maybe not lol.

 

[Aceofspades]

Halo? Anyone?

 

[ryan299]

I don't get Madden being number 2 for the year. I really don't haha.

 

[Bluenoser]

Fallout 4 standalone sold better on PS4.

For the year yes, but not for Dec.

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

And some people still think NX isn't coming this year.

But third-party multiplatform games don't sell!

 

[killroy87]

How did Halo not make it into top 10 yearly?

It's only on one console.

 

[nib95]

Fallout 4 standalone sold better on PS4.

In the OP it says otherwise?

 

[J_Viper]

Fallout 4 outselling Battlefront?

Deserved, but surprising.

No TW3 is really surprising and disappointing....

Hasn't CDPR said themselves that TW3 made a solid profit for them? Maybe I'm misremembering.

 

[Pathfinder]

No way in hell Tomb Raider sold a million.

And you're basing that off what exactly?

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

It's interesting to see that Halo didn't even chart. Low Twitch views as well. People aren't as excited for Halo anymore.

 

[Rymuth]

What happened to Halo 5...

Master Chief Collection happened

 

[Tratorn]

Fallout 4 must be pretty close or PS4 had a big lead in november, since in the full year chart the PS4 is still leading.

 

[Loudninja]

Fallout 4 standalone sold better on PS4.

Yeah I imagine wihth bundles the Xbox One sold more.

 

[LiquidSolid]

WAIT. This is a mistake!

Correction: 3.) Fallout 4 (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

Sorry! I was rushing this one today a bit because numbers came in late, and I had a lot going on at once.

Is that for both December and Full Year then?

 

[Toki767]

How did Halo not make it into top 10 yearly?

It didn't sell as well as other games?

 

[allan-bh]

yea no way TR sold over 1 million, sorry but calling PR BS. Has not charted once in Nov-Dec and its dead in the UK.

Doesn't need to be on top 10 to be true. The cut in both months is big.

 

[gaming_noob]

Mortal Kombat in the top 10 full year is surprisingly impressive.

 

[BeforeU]

Yea halo just went and passed.

Seems like no one is talking about it.

Visit the GAF Halo 5 OT2 and Halo 5 Forge thread and see if no one is talking about it or not LOL

 

[slavesnyder]

So no exclusive in the yearly charts.
Will Uncharted or anyone have a chance in 2016?

 

[boredandlazy]

Isn't this how it works? Your posts are like that.

I originally missed the smiley at the end of my post, which showed I was joking. But it's nice to know you're paying attention.

 

[hawk2025]

Does it really matter? I doubt there were many Battlefront and Blops 3 bundles left in December.

The Blops3 regular bundle started in December.

 

[J-Skee]

Nuts that PS4 is selling more hardware, but Xbox is selling more software. I really wish we could see sales for bundles.

EDIT: Whoops, wrong word.

 

[Raist]

For reference, Mortal Kombat X sold 1.25 million first month. Which mean that by now is WELL over those numbers.

Muhricans starting to like real football.

 

[Piggus]

How did Halo not make it into top 10 yearly?

Halo isn't the powerhouse it once was. That and it's a fist party game on a non-lead platform going up against a bunch of huge third party games.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

>625k to get into top 10 this year.

Shit, that's insane.

So no exclusive in the yearly charts.
Will Uncharted or anyone have a chance in 2016?

Very unlucky.

 

[Obliterator]

Where? In the US? Maybe not lol.

Yeah US, I'm pretty sure it must be outpacing Ubi's internal estimates for launch month cause stock aint great.

It was one of those games that came out not huge out the gate but just keeps selling and selling and selling. I expect it in the top 10 for January

 

[Bluenoser]

Quoting this, because nobody quoted it yet.

I saw it but I thought he was mixing up the yearly. So list in OP was a mistake and FO4 was PS4>XB1?

 

[The Mad Draklor]

Halo? Anyone?

Your tag... Can it be? :O

 

[Elios83]

But NPD doesn't include bundles, so XBO does take the top three spots. NPD doesn't include digital either while we're at it.

Indeed I think that without bundles and digital copies included the NPD chart is pretty much useless.
