Dying Light I'm sure I thought that was out in Jan... unless it was delayed for the UK and missed that news.

Not as bad a drop as I thought for The Order 1886.

 

[HassanJamal]

Good to see the delay didn't affect Dying Light's sales, I think. Well worth the money for all you can do in the game.

 

[King Beyond the wall]

I agree. While it's no TLOU it's better than reviews suggest. A lot of people i know were positively suprised by it.

I agree, it has its problems but it is still an excellent and original experience.

 

[dolemite]

The Order is a good but short game. For some reason the reviewers are applying the "short == bad" logic to this game. And the weekly drop is actually quite small, compared to what we usually see.

 

[bombshell]

Dying Light I'm sure I thought that was out in Jan... unless it was delayed for the UK and missed that news.

Not as bad a drop as I thought for The Order 1886.

Physical was delayed for whole Europe, digital was out same time as US release.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Lot of people thought negative WOM™ and retailers with flooded used copies would lead to a pretty huge drop for Order.

Evolve is going down.

CEX still has less than 1000 copies, which is pretty surprising. They dropped the values pretty quickly after release, but there wasn't the expected rush to sell/trade copies that would usually demand such action.

 

[John Bender]

I guess reviewers didn't play it then

I'm talking about people I acutally know in reallife.

(About these "reviewers"... seems like they didn't )

 

[tusken77]

The Order's legs are as short as the game, it seems.

You really wanted to make that joke, didn't you. Even though it doesn't work.

Great to see The Order holding well.

Yeah I'm quite pleased it still sold well at retail despite the issues surrounding the release.

 

[John Bender]

Will be interesting to see how Dragon Ball charts in germany.
DB is huge there.

I don't understand. Without Dying Light, everything would be up accordingly without Dying Light.

Yup, he's talking Germany, not the UK charts.

Dying Light isn't releasing in Germany, not sure why everything would be up from that?

The Witcher™ concurs.

I just noticed Destiny on X1 at no 40...that's like 100 - 200 sold right?

There tends to be a misconception about how low the bottow of the charts are. They're pretty much always in the four figure region.

In this case Dragon Ball on 360 and PS3 both sold >1,439 with PS3 version not even making top 40.

 

[yurinka]

The Order's legs are as short as the game, it seems.

So for the PAL numbers we have of this week The Order is Top 1 in Germany, France, Sweden, Finland, New Zealand and Australia, plus top 3 is UK? Yeah, short legs xDD

 

[c0de]

Yup, he's talking Germany, not the UK charts.

Yeah, my bad.

 

[John Bender]

With Dying Light not releasing here it will probably be
1. The Order

Let's wait and see. Don't underestimate the power of Dragon Ball in germany.

edit.
Ah, I forgot.
These PS4+The Order bundles in germany are huge right now.
Yep, The Order: 1886 will be No.1

 

[dead monkey uk]

Good to see the delay didn't affect Dying Light's sales, I think. Well worth the money for all you can do in the game.

I hope delaying the physical release will not become a thing to make the people that want it day one having to buy the more expensive digital version.

Good to see The Order have good week 2 sales, would love to see a sequel. With Amazon and Argos offering bundles including the game, this must of helped it from dropping further down the chart.

When people will get that, the lower chart rankings, the smaller the difference in mere unità between them (normally), it'll be a better world.

 

[eFKac]

Good for Dying Light, one of the better Techland games, so glad that they're rewarded.

Great hold for The Order, and that TLoU evergreen :-D

Edit. A little lower ratio for the PS4 SKU of Xenoverse than I expected.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

France
02 (02) 3DS MONSTER HUNTER 4 ULTIMATE (CAPCOM)
03 (01) 3DS THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: MAJORA'S MASK 3D (NINTENDO)

MH4U holding better than Zelda!

 

[Xando]

Let's wait and see. Don't underestimate the power of Dragon Ball in germany.

The Order was sold as a bundle from Media Markt(Game + PS4 399&#8364 and Saturn (Game + camera + 2nd controller + PS4 for 449&#8364 both with TV ads last week. That should be enough for no. 1.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

The Odor 1688 showing it's merit.

Re posting since new thread:

Would you say we've seen its final form or not yet?

Stay tuned for the next exciting episode of PAL Thread Z

 

[Xando]

They aren't bundles in the classic way. Media Markt and Saturn just tape the retail games on a standard PS4 and call it bundle.

So it counts as a retail copy. Not like the official bundles like GTA V or Destiny.

Yep, check my edit. in my previous post.

Even the bundle on Amazon is runnin' wild:

It's not "real" bundle.

This!

Is 52000 LTD in the UK good (2 weeks).
How does it compare to other new exclusive IP released this Gen?
(in the UK)

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Much better than Sunset at the very least.

Probably didn't do better than Watch Dogs on current gen.

 

[John Bender]

We only know that it's above 52K.

As for the comparison: Better than Sunset Overdrive, for example.

I believe Infamous did better around the same time last year.

Is it fair to compare a new IP to an established one?

 

[Hasney]

Much better than Sunset at the very least.

Probably didn't do better than Watch Dogs on current gen.

WATCH_DOGS had a strong debut, I'd doubt it did better than even just the PS4 SKU.

Did better than Driveclub during the initial period I think, but I don't think we got much in the way of concrete numbers.

Didn't WD break records or am I thinking of a different game?

 

[FallenGrace]

The Order is a good but short game. For some reason the reviewers are applying the "short == bad" logic to this game.

Because short with no replayability is terrible value for money at £50, and when reviewing a product of any sort value is important I should think.

I'm not too surprised at how it's doing though. It was advertised a fair bit on TV from what I saw and user reviews have been far more positive all around.

 

[Hasney]

The Order is a good but short game. For some reason the reviewers are applying the "short == bad" logic to this game. And the weekly drop is actually quite small, compared to what we usually see.

I disagree entirely. Being short is just one of many issues, even if it could be the most glaring.

Didn't WD break records or am I thinking of a different game?

You are correct:

UKIE has revealed that Ubisoft’s release has beaten the previous new IP record set three years ago by Rockstar’s L.A. Noire by a sales increase of 58%, and is now the 17th best launch release in the UK to-date.

 

[newjeruse]

Driveclub is back!

 

[Belgo Ray]

I'm on a business trip this week so won't be able to post the German charts on Wednesday as usual. I can deliver Friday the earliest, if it hasn't been done by somebody else until then.

 

[BKK]

When people will get that, the lower chart rankings, the smaller the difference in mere unità between them (normally), it'll be a better world.

Indeed, it's comparable with the Dengeki top 50 in Japan, where only a few hundred units separate positions 30 to 40.

 

[system11]

Surprised to see Dying Light doing well. With the layers of crap effects in there it really is an ugly duckling.

 

[Foshy]

Sorry, i didn't consider the "new IP" part.
