Detroit has a totally different fanbase. And man, GOW will sell really well in November and December. Just like Horizon Zero Dawn did.

Kodera: God of War exceeded 5 million copies (Sell through) in one month after release
- Thread starter patapon
- Start date
Yeah the tales of frontloaded sales , no legs for Sony exclusives are officially over.
I'm conflicted, I want more God of War but I love the idea of containing it all in a sequel. The thing about Norse Myths, they are a finite resource. Even more so than Greek. The more you use, the less usable for ideas in the sequel.
I'd definitely be open to some DLC with some more comprehensive labours, favours and expanding out the open realms. Particularly Alfheim which felt like it could do some more exploring
For TLOU2 to do 6 million in one month, it would have to reach another 95 on meta in my opinion.
Month after release still playing it. Usually i platinum gow games in 10 days and replay it in a year or so. Not this time. Grinding mist and its still fun with constatly changing level while testing skill. Level design s out of this world. Combat s soooo fun.
Deserving every sale.

I really don't think TLOU2 will top it. God of War had so much going for it, way moreso than TLOU2 will (based on what we know so far).
Yeah, no.
TLOU2 will be the biggest Sony game ever.
Unless Neil fucks up so badly that the game scores like... 92 MC. The horror. Oh my God I can see Naughty Dog building on fire.. and Neil sheding a single tear with a copy of God of War in his hands.
Nah, critics are more harsher on games this gen than they were last gen.
They are... except if it is a Naughty Dog game, or a Rockstar game or a Nintendo EAD game.
Then you have a 95+ in your hand.
How about this:
Expansion is the story of how and why Faye (Kratos' wife/Atreus' mother) got the axe, etc..
Sequel and the third game tells the Kratos/Atreus story.
Then new trilogy about Atreus facing the Roman pantheon, who would be the Greek pantheon Kratos killed reborn and fueling a war of conquest on the northern peoples as a vehicle for revenge/conquest. Atreus encounters the bastard children of Kratos sired from within the original trilogy, some as allies, some as enemies.
After that another trilogy picking up from one of Kratos' grandchildren could move into the Egyptian pantheon, then from there into Indian mythology. We can keep this train going for a LONG time with the right planning and format.
So you are saying it is impossible for TLOU2 to score higher than GOW?
im really curious how strong the legs will be & what numbers we can expect in one year from now.
Also people are underestimating TLOU P2 - it will have monster sales

Of course it's possible, but it will be extremely hard to do. There's a lot of pressure riding on this game. TLOU2 would have to either live up to the first game or be better by the majority of critics in order to reach a 96 which means it would have to capture the magic the first game had and add on to it.
I believe Naughty Dog can pull off another amazing game with PTII, but again it will be very hard to do, reaching a 95 or 96 on meta.
It goes without saying that it will be incredibility hard to do, but Naughty Dog is one of the few studios that can do it and I wouldn't be surprised.
Some execs said that single players don't sell well.
And I will say right now: loooooooooooooool
And I will say right now: loooooooooooooool
I would not expect any more great single players titles from EA or Activision ever. Slight chance for EA with Bioware I guess, but their priorities are elsewhere right now.
I was looking for a source, but okay...
I'm looking for the 7.5 million in two months figure specifically, that document is fiscal year ending march, so October to March sales, not two months.
This gif is absolutely incredible, haha5M in a month? Disappointing.
This document is for the quarter ending in Dec... nine months of financial year ending in March 2018.
Nine months... April to December. That means 2 months and 4 days for Mario.
The doc was released on Feb 1.
I want a DLC with Atreus, Mimir & the dwarven brothers having an adventure. Starts out lighthearted & fun then somethzing goes badly wrong, but Atreus ups his game & saves the day.
