What a sad salty postLet the Days Gone folks have this one victory. The sales numbers for the game are the only thing about it that are worth celebrating.

Days gone being so high so soon man it fills the heart with joy. That game sat thru so much shit from this community for 3 years straight. Bomb, studio closure, bend done.
man ya love to see it
Yep. Imagine being that salty at a good game selling a lot.
The last guardian selling 1 to 2 million and blood borne at 3million is an absolute travesty.
PS+ doesn't count towards this numbers. Although, it could have lead some to go out and buy it.
If I recall correctly, Phil Spencer has stated that games on gamepass have had brought in more actual sales via more awareness (twitch, mixer, social media presence). This could be the same.
Also, word of mouth has always been that Bloodborne is amazing. I just wish they would do a Pro patch for it. Even if they just locked the frame rate into 30, I'd probably hop back in.
Matt said TLOU is the 3rd all time best selling PS game on NPD
I dont get it
Shouldnt it be in the top 10 then?
Because it's about PS4 sales, not all PS systems. It's not that complicated.

There's no reason that TLOU Remastered, a game that has existed on PS4 since 2014, shouldn't outsell Days Gone, a game that's existed since earlier this year.
It's not that complicated.
Rank is by revenue and TLOU Remastered has mostly been sold at a discounted price so it makes sense. Also majority of full price sales for TLOU was on PS3. Not that complicated indeed.There's no reason that TLOU Remastered, a game that has existed on PS4 since 2014, shouldn't outsell Days Gone, a game that's existed since earlier this year.

"PlayStation 4 exclusives". The Last of Us is not a PlayStation 4 exclusive. It can sell 100 million copies at $100 each, 96% of them being on the PS4 and it will still not be in that list. It does not qualify.
are you sure it's only ps4 version sales? GoW3 ps4 version making the list seems shocking because I didn't remember the remaster release has huge hype surrounding it's release. I think it's not even a full priced $60 titleBecause it's about PS4 sales, not all PS systems. It's not that complicated.

It literally says 'Playstation 4' on the title. I don't have access to the data myself so unless Piscatella made a mistake we have to assume the obvious.are you sure it's only ps4 version sales?

Looks like all those bargain-bin $.99 copies worked for HZD and Uncharted

The good sales and it being a good game. Can't wait for the sequel.Let the Days Gone folks have this one victory. The sales numbers for the game are the only thing about it that are worth celebrating.
God of War 3 isn't listed on PS4 list,is listed in all time as 5th,The Last of Us all time is 3rd,no mention of their remastered,I don't get all the confusion here.

It's not included because the NPD doesn't consider it an exclusive, weird I know, but Mat said it ranks number 3.My confusion was borne, in part, by apparently excluding PS4 exclusives from the PS4 exclusives list. It's tumbled since then because this is the internet.
Let me be very clear so we can avoid confusion: I would be stunned if Days Gone sold more than TLOUR. Both are PS4 exclusives. I made a bit of a joke about it, and then got quoted and it snowballed from there. We don't know how much TLOUR sold, or how it placed, because despite being a PS4-only SKU, TLOUR was not originally included in the PS4 exclusives list.

These remasters 100% only being brought up cuz days gone so high isn't it
edit:I knew it
Yeah, I'm not sure why, it's even weirder when you check the Xbox list and they list MCC.Which makes no sense, IMO. You can buy TLOUR on one system and one system only. Same with GOW3R.
But yes, this all started because I made a joke lol.

Gran Turismo sold massively in the US on the PS1 and the PS2, hell they were the best-selling PS1 games in the US.
Doubt it, there are games on PC on that list.
Worth noting that the rankings don't include units sold in hardware bundles. Last I checked, Uncharted 4 had around 4m units sold via bundles in the US, which would put it significantly higher than other games that weren't as widely bundled.
They didn't claim it was a list strictly of Xbox One exclusives whereas they made that claim with the PS4 list. It's in the heading of the Xbox list that it includes PC. A list of Xbox One exclusives wouldn't be interesting or feasible since Microsoft put all their games on Microsoft Windows 10 PCs. The only purpose of making a list the sales of "true" Xbox One exclusives would be to add fuel to an Xbox bashing fanboy narrative since it would be a list mostly of poor games not worth porting to PC. There are 12 Xbox One exclusives in total:Really struggling to understand how in the world NPD defines exclusivity then lol
Dollar sales.There's no reason that TLOU Remastered, a game that has existed on PS4 since 2014, shouldn't outsell Days Gone, a game that's existed since earlier this year.

Racing games were more popular back then. They kinda died out lastgen. This gen we didn't even see a ridge racer on launch day, for arcade racers we mainly have bad NFS games, and Forza Horizon. I do think a numbered GT would sell better here in NA, but nothing like the GT3 days.Gran Turismo sold massively in the US on the PS1 and the PS2, hell they were the best-selling PS1 games in the US.
I have only played Horizon out of those, despite owning all of them. Maybe by the time next gen comes around I'll have played one or two of them.Man you own a PS4 and haven't played anything between God of War, Uncharted 4, TLOU, Spider-Man, Horizon, or Bloodborne?? Man you're in for several rides of goodness once you check them out.
I'm not sure what you're even arguing about. I'm pointing out that it had to have great catalog sales to keep its spot for as long as it has, despite the obvious price disadvantage that it's had for years now as a $20 title. That's fantastic for a genre that typically doesn't enjoy that long a tail, aside from PC.
Social exposure is a hugely powerful tool. By taking a loss on direct sales, there's a parallel version of advertising that is happening. I think it's pretty great overall.The crazy part of this, I've mentioned multiple times PS Plus, even Games with Gold is just Game Pass lite.
And have been laughed at for even thinking this.
