Pubg is only bundled with the xbox one x right? does this mean the one x is actually selling well in the UK? which would be pretty amazing considering the UK has been leaning so heavily towards the PS4, if such an expensive console is selling units that bodes well for MS.

No, I'm fairly certain that you can buy a physical copy of PUBG (which is just a retail box with a download code inside).

The persecution complex some people have with game franchises and gaming companies leads to this kind of nonsense.

I wouldn't go that far personally, but I don't appreciate comments like that that only serve to mock or dumb down the whole debate.

I mean really 'next people will say that Horizon didn't sell well'. Kinda an embarrassing reaction to mere skepticism to be sure.

EDIT: and it gets even worse. Goddamn people really aren't making this place look mature in the least.

Actually after reading all the posts in this thread no one has downplayed Horizon. I wonder where you are getting this from.
Don't need to be this thread in specific. You can make a search if you are curious. Subliminal downplaying still very commom this days.

To ne honest, Horizon west from impress me at launch to kinda disappoint me.

I thought Sony would have pushed that game way harder than that, i thought a bundle was a given this holiday.

It still sold good that's for sure, but yeah, i understand who talk about disapoint performance, after launch i mean.

There is nothing disappointing about it's performance, you don't make a new exclusive IP and expect it to chart like FIFA and GTA, it did great for what it was.

if you log in on the gran-turismo.com site, it shows your profile number. i'm one million something. there are about five million profiles on there, which could mean that it has sold about that amount.

You all should wait at least for the full year chart to talk about disappointments and successes.
One or two more weeks.

Well, you always have to consider people having many accounts or selling their physical copies so in reality it could be way lower. Right?

Nah, that seems way too high, not that it won't sell that much but it's too early.

5 million profiles? Like registered users who played Sport? That's alot.

Thread worthy, take some screens.

I guess the numbers that give error (like 1 and 2) are Beta users that didn't come back to final version... they have a perfil number but no actual data in the final game to show it.

Oh, that would be interesting to see. Which players were turned off by the beta and didn't come back yet.

I don't... it is just guess because all profiles below 1,000,000 didn't works (so I'm guessing they used for the Beta or test purposes... or they just ignored these and started on 1 million).

Resume.

1-999999: not working - error (I tried numbers like 1, 01, 0000001 or similar)
1000000-4973649: all valid profiles

Actual unique profiles: 3,973,649

PS. I can make a script to get the data to Excel and count by Country too if I have time.

Yep, it looks like ids are parsed at integers and start at 1 million. The QA guy in me appreciates that you tried 0000001 (a seven-digit id string with a value of less than 1 million)

I am fascinated how games that sell millions are considered disappointing, yet the same folks are raving about games struggling to get to a million.
