But are bundled sales included with software revenue?

Is it actually possible it sold a million?  I'm too lazy to look over your information :P

Worldwide? Yeah that's definitely possible. I'd say its likely tbh

It has, MS announced that already.

I honestly don't trust as word Microsoft says about anything.  Cause, you know, Microsoft told the world at E3 a few years back that they managed to sell more 360s than they manufactured.  Like, I know it's not on purpose, I honestly think they're just that incompetent.  Especially from their PR shills.

I believe it. I think its perfectly feasible that Tomb Raider sold 1 million in 2015

Yeah, I see what you mean but I really don't have much of a problem believing this, honestly 1 million is not that much considering what kind of franchise we're still dealing with here and what MS did to achieve it. What I wouldn't believe is if MS tried telling us that RoTR was a success for them, on that I'd immediately call battleship, especially if it came from someone like Greenberg.

Yeah Square is really panicking with the PC release.  Too bad my video card won't run it :(

There is a thread on what will be the biggest exclusive in terms of sales this year on the chertz, most people are understandably saying either UC4 or a new mainline Pokemon game should one come out, but some are actually saying SFV has a shot (I'm guessing both platforms combined, which kinda defeats the purpose, lol).

I mean come on, I'm sure SFV will be great and a very important game for PS4 as well, I'm looking forward to it myself, but it's not in the race for top selling exclusive of the year, it would really have to defy expectations to do that.

ROTR has done 410k in the US
If it did that much outside of the US (unlikely but not impossible) that's 820k at retail
With a 20% digital rate it reaches 984k. So, maybe 21-25 for digital %

Rorono

BTW maybe there really was "another" growth in digital attach rate in 2015
SAO Lost song had a 30% one. And us weebs usually prefer physical copies, always. Pretty sure these games generally have higher physical ratio than many games
So maybe 30% is the new standard

There was a pretty big incentive to get SAO Lost Song digitally. If you preordered Lost Song, you get Re:Hollow Fragment as a bonus.

Yeah but that should only offset what I mentioned, thus why it wouldn't be higher than 30 despite the incentive
