It's a big download?

It's an annoying one, I'll give it that.

halo 5 gonna debut at #3 on the chart which isn't so bad considering the days it had.

Microsoft will not win this round but next.
Wii U most console sold YOY

No way, Halo will be #2 at worst, but most likely #1.

that's if everyone didn't go Digital for the game. does the pack in bundle include digital and does that get added to NPD.

 

[Sangetsu-II]

Good luck i tried that with COD with my fiancé..it didn't work shes a good tales of partner tho

She's good at platformers, the trick to teaching in shooters is to start them of with something like R&C, then TPS then finally train with FPS. It works with my girl so far.

 

[AFCA]

For the official NPD results thread (i'll be on a commute home at that time)

Scoreboard Win For Xbox One

Scoreboard Win For PS4

This is my first piece of work so be kind!

You should change Kaz face for Shu's.

I begged NPD_George for numbers.

"Several neogafer's have asked me to ask you for NPD numbers. Now I know, the job is great, but we need those numbers. So please, give us those numbers... please."

I'm not getting those numbers.... aren't I.

PS: I actually messaged him these words.

They don't get included in the software total but the bundle's sales number's should be leaked. Which we can then add to the software.

You're honestly thinking he is from NPD?

 

[Philly40]

George_NPD can construct complete sentences. His grammar and spelling are accurate, he also seems rational and reasonable. He sounds very much like a Harvard man.

Pretty much confirmed.

He certainly doesn't seem to display the boorish manner of a Yalie.

This would be brutal, not bad.

 

[super6646]

No, I just wanted to do it.

 

[slavesnyder]

NPD_George knows nothing.
All he said so far delivered no extra info and wasn't even exciting.
He is no mole, no insider or anything. calm down.
If you want, open a thread about him.

Don't get me wrong, I love the name and avatar, find it really clever and ironic. NeoGaf-Hipster.
But it's embarracing to see how anyone who remotedly looks or smells like someone who could know something is treated like a highschool princess.

 

[Bitch Pudding]

False alarm...

 

[panda-zebra]

You're honestly thinking he is from NPD?

The ghost of npd threads past maybe...

 

[N.Domixis]

There is a 100% chance either ps4 or xbox1 won, let that sink in a bit.

interesting, but those weren't the numbers....

 

[Alo0oy]

They track the bundles, but they're not counted towards the chart. Digital sales shouldn't be higher than 20%.

The only game that can debut at #1 other than Halo is AC: Syndicate, but I have my doubt on that.

 

[RespectThySole]

Mgs5 is a lot like chipotle. First time you're there you are blown away by the "variety," everything tastes so good, etc. tenth time you realize you are getting fucked over for quacamole, the food is not memorable and basically made by a smelly man whose job it is to press on your food with his fists, and you have to poo.

Amazingly accurate haha

Wait what? Who is treating our George like that?

 

[FunkyPajamas]

What's the alternative then? You think somebody would go on the internet and tell lies?

Is it embarrassing? Or is it the most sane thing ever?

Nba 2k16 and assassin's creed Will probably outsell halo due to multiplatform

 

[michaelius]

You're honestly thinking he is from NPD?

Shouldn't he be banned then ?

 

[PhantomFear]

What's the alternative then? You think somebody would go on the internet and tell lies?

I heard from a friend that if you ask someone whether they work at NPD, they're legally obligated to say yes if it's true.

 

[Y2Kev]

Why is he so smiley

He's tripping on some good acid.

This will be NBA's second month, it won't sell 1+ million in its second month (which is probably the minimum it needs to outsell Halo), I can see Syndicate doing it though.

 

[Jigorath]

There is zero chance Halo doesn't open at number 1.

No, he did nothing wrong and he didn't said that works for NPD.

You are falling for his trap. He's using the oldest trick in the book.

Nba official release was only two days in september

NBA sold > 1.1 million last month. If the legs are very strong, it can drop by a small margin and sell 900-800k, but is unlucky.

If will happen, yeah, withouth hardware bundle, maybe can be bigger than Halo 5.

But under Syndacate... no, i really don't see it's happening.

Exactly. I'm sure there are at least a couple others who work for the NPD (I'm new, so don't stare at me thinking I should know them).

 

[LifEndz]

Sony lost confirmed.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

He knows he is rocking a nice set of teeth. Show them thangs off.

Hear that sound? That subtle rattle in the distance, like a faint mechanical whisper.

That's the PR machine off in the distance, running on all cylinders.

NPD's tracking period for September was up to October 3rd.

 

[lightning2k3]

Why would they ban him?

 

[T-0800]

How long until we find out how many people logged into Live and how many bullets have been fired in Halo 5?

Ah damn.....didn't know that lol.


I guess assassin's creed would be the only thing to sell more

Should be in the hour! THE PR MACHINE APPROACHES, QUICK MEN, EMBRACE IT!

NPD George is a cool guy, he doesn't afraid of nothing.
