PS4 welcomes Nathan Drake to the next generation as ‘Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End’ debuts at No1.

It’s both the first and final new adventure to arrive on PS4 for developer Naughty Dogs’ flagship series (although the remastered trilogy came to PS4 in October last year). In terms of debut week sales ‘Uncharted 4’ is by far the most successful launch in the series beating ‘Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception debut week by 66%. It marks an excellent few weeks for Sony with their platform exclusives (Ratchet & Clank (-50% now at No4 being the other) taking the crown in 3 of the last 4 weeks. Bethesda Softworks ‘Doom’ also arrives this week comfortably making its debut at No2. It’s the first outing on PS4 and Xbox One for the series and another strong debut with sales up 67% on Doom 3. ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops III’ (-46%) makes way for the new releases dropping a place to No3. A pair of former chart topping titles in Ubisoft’s ‘Tom Clancy’s: The Division’ (-32%) and ‘Far Cry Primal’ (-33%) sit at No5 and No6 respectively. Strong sales for ‘Star Wars Battlefront’ (+28%) ensure it climbs back in to the Top 10 at No10 after a two week absence

Embarrassing @ you once again having to bring up something Xbox related first

Also, 190k - 150k isn't that much of a difference AND considering Playstations base vs Xboxs' - I expected a bigger difference between the two.

So for Halo 5 to sell 150K when their base is much smaller, it's not that much of a "Poor Cortana" situation - But you wouldn't put logic in your trolling.

OT: Great sales - I've been hearing a few good things about this

The base in UK for PS4 and XB1 is not that wide compared to the rest of the world. Nice try.

i dont get what's so great about this game?

i borrowed uncharted 3 from a friend and thought it was ok and not at all as it was hyped up to be. it has a cute storyline and ok game mechanics but its honestly nothing special.

Just over a million is still a considerate amount and to try and drag a game selling 150K compared to a game that sold 190K on a base that has an extra million users, is a bit... Uncalled for? I suppose.

PS4 doesn't have a million lead in UK, sis.

Uncharted isn't even that as commercial as Halo.The fact it outsold a renowned FPS in an FPS nation like UK speaks volumes. Uncharted's in the same ballpark as Tomb Raider so pls explain why it outsold Halo and RoTR's first week launch sales combined.

UK PS4 sales passed the 3m mark back in January, MCV reported, which puts Xbox One's UK total around 2m.

How can you say it's not as commercial as Halo? Every one and their mother has Uncharted on Playstation

- The hype for Uncharted was unreal and it helped that it has acclaim from reviewers... Compared to Halo 5 which had some hype but was damaged by Halo 4 and The Master Chief Collection... I know I've explained this to you many times before but it goes right over your head.

RoTR I'm not getting into as I haven't really followed that game

That's fake.

Most likely just half a million, PS4's lead mostly came from everywhere and Xbox flopping that is not US and UK.

Are you saying a single player campaign focused TPS game with platformer/puzzle elements is just as commercial as Halo an FPS franchise that usually sells by ten millions like the CoDs and BFs(although Halo 5 underperformed like 60%)?

The console war is so stupid
And it's the poor man's war...

Why not buy both...

I have both.

And Uncharted 4 is great, great story, great ending to the series.
