Fallout 4 Sells 1.87 Million Digital Copies in 3 Days - IGN

Bu-bu-but Halo 5, Forza 6 and RoTR all sold tons of units digitally, lol.

Crazy that cod used to have 2m first week in the UK alone

So... Where's the chart? Is halo dropping?

Not as much as the UC Collection

Halo went down to 10th on the all format chart, UC down to 24th.

Fallout 4 Sells 1.87 Million Digital Copies in 3 Days - IGN

Bu-bu-but Halo 5, Forza 6 and RoTR all sold tons of units digitally, lol.

That means ~600k digital copies sold from PSN + XBL.

That is pretty accurate with the sub-20% digital sales we know about games.

lol 12m shipped 670k dl on two systems

[Dr. Pezus]

Well, it's that + the fact that it's exclusive to the smallest tr fantasy possible besides Nintendo

lol 12m shipped 670k dl on two systems

No, 12m shipped including digital. So digital overall is probably around 25% of the total sales so far, but that includes pc of course, where digital is the majority

Poor Tomb Raider ????. UK sales: Rise of the Tomb Raider <63k. And #Fallout4 - despite Microsoft Xbox One support - still sold better on PS4 ????

Kinda reminds of this tweet, not the classiest thing to say imo

Just in from research team (NPD): Halo 3 has outsold Resistance 1 + 2, Uncharted 1+2, Killzone 2 and God of War III COMBINED....wow

S.P.E.C.I.A.L LAUNCH FOR FALLOUT

15/Nov/2015
'Fallout 4' delivers the best ever launch week for the series while becoming the third biggest launch of 2015 so far.

Bethesda's second No1 of the year (The Elder Scrolls Online was the other) is behind only the familiar faces of 'Fifa 16' and 'Call of Duty: Black Ops III' for debut week unit sales. It's a fantastic return for the series bettering the debut sales of previous week one best seller 'Fallout: New Vegas' by 213%. 'Call of Duty: Black Ops III' (-57%) makes way for the newly crowned champion dropping to No2. 'Fifa 16' (+10%) also drops down a place despite a boost fuelled in part by high sales of the Xbox One Fifa 16 hardware bundle. Lara Croft returns as 'Rise of the Tomb Raider' debuts at No4 for Xbox One and Xbox 360. With Microsoft securing a timed exclusive for the title sales lean heavily toward Xbox One with 85% over Xbox 360's 15% share.
Telltale Games' 'Minecraft Story Mode' (+6%) climbs a place to No5 and delivers impressive week on week growth over its debut launch figure in its third week. EA's 'Need for Speed' (-62%) drops three places to No6 in its second week. Sega's 'Football Manager 2016' for PC lands at No7 just ahead of a resurgent 'Lego Dimensions' (+49%), which climbs a place to No8 thanks to retailer promotions. Former chart toppers 'Assassin's Creed: Syndicate' (-39%) and 'Halo 5: Guardians' (-50%) are down to No9 and No10 in their fourth and third weeks on the All Formats Chart. Elsewhere in the Top 40 another PC title makes its mark with Blizzard's 'StarCraft II: Legacy of the Void' landing at No23.

Halo 5 drop is real.

Tomb Raider did less than 30% of the original release.

Expected CoD hold due small window last week.

Yeah, Halo is really struggling for legs. Truly fantastic Fallout 4 performance. More than triple Halo 5's first week! If you asked me a few months ago which would do more I'd have said Halo.

Bit more spam from me!

Amazon Hourly Top 100 Update:

#9 PS4 SW (-3)
#11 PS4 SW LE (-2)
#16 PS4 COD LE (-1)
#28 XB1 Fallout (-9)
#32 PS4 NDC (+12)
#36 XB1 Gears (-12)
#77 XB1 Madden (+7)
#98 XB1 3 Games (re-entry)

XB1 finally improving a bit but those SW PS4 bundles must be selling gang busters right now.

Looking at the top of the chart, it seems like Fallout is going to be bigger than SW without the PS4 bundles counted.

Still no 2M X1 milestone in the UK? I thought it'd happen this past week. Been over 5 months since PS4 did it
