Rare Replay was out for 3 more weeks than Until Dawn, not too surprising.

Minecraft as #2 .... ouch

I'd say Minecraft at number 2 means that all the numbers this month were pretty darn low

Hopefully, Until Dawn has decent legs considering how much it is trending on YouTube. Abdiel also said that the game was undershipped in his district. Not sure if that is true nationwide and/or across other retailers, but it might have influenced the game's sales performance.

Regarding the rankings of Gears Ultimate, Rare Replay, and Until Dawn, price plays a big factor.

Rare Replay is $30
Gears Ultimate is $40
Until Dawn is $60

So next month should be in the bag with Metal Gear, and Destiny 2.0.

MGSV will be huge for PS4.

I feel like Destiny fans already own the system though.

Yeah, but that bundle. So it could add about 20k to the top.

October is going to go to XB1. Doesn't Sony only have the UC collection then?

November is going to be close but I see PS4 winning due to dat SW and CoD hype

UC Collection bundle, Disgaea 5, and Dragon Quest Heroes. Sony also has marketing rights to AC: Syndicate.

Disgaea 5 is a niche Japanese title. Not going to chart.

DQ: H might sell decently, won't provide much of a boost though. AC: S is going to be a dud

Sony:
