They sold 832 copies, and those copies have been traded back in thousands of time each. #GameStop
Are bundles included/excluded in either numbers?
Are vgchartz numbers up 2 date?
I would guess that digital sales aren't counted accurately by VGC, we all know their numbers are accurate enough for older information, I'm sure they base a lot of their stuff off of NPD etc.
No new games in the top 40 this week. Ps4 dominated the top 10 thanks to the days of play promotion that saw lots of discounted titles with GoW going back to No.1
Here's the weekly UK top 10:
1 GOD OF WAR PEGI 18+ SONY COMPUTER ENT.
2 FIFA 18 PEGI 3+ EA SPORTS
3 FALLOUT 4 PEGI 18+ BETHESDA SOFTWORKS
4 DETROIT: BECOME HUMAN PEGI 18+ SONY COMPUTER ENT.
5 PLAYSTATION VR WORLDS PEGI 16+ SONY COMPUTER ENT.
6 GRAND THEFT AUTO V PEGI 18+ ROCKSTAR
7 MARIO KART 8 DELUXE PEGI 3+ NINTENDO
8 VAMPYR PEGI 18+ FOCUS HOME INTERACTIVE
9 ASSASSIN'S CREED ORIGINS PEGI 18+ UBISOFT
10 CALL OF DUTY: WWII PEGI 18+ ACTIVISION
Vampyr went from 1 to 8. GoW up from 3 to 1. Detroit held steady at 4.

Well it's a racing game where you don't really race. Not sure what they were thinking.
Just give us Motorstorm in a different name.
Turns out Sea of Thieves actually sold a lot better than Microsoft had forecast
Microsoft poster boy Phil Spencer has revealed that Sea of Thieves and State of Decay 2 sold far greater than what the format holder had initially forecast.
Spencer confirmed during an interview with Giant Bomb that Rare's multiplayer plunder-'em-up moved 'significantly more' copies than Microsoft's internal projections.
'On those two games (Sea of Thieves and State of Decay 2), we sold more copies of those games than we expected,' the executive said. 'The same thing was true of State of Decay.'
Both titles are of course available on the Xbox Game Pass, although interestingly Spencer revealed that pass users actually buys more games than other Xbox owners.

This is Motorstorm though yes there's differences but nothing is closer.
I think $59.99 is its problem as the game plays good.
I don't follow sales enough to know what is good or bad, but for 145K in May for the XB1, that seems VERY low for ALL of North America.
Their previous Mays
2014 - 77k
2015 - 140k
2016 - 107k
2017 - 109k
2018 - 145k
And PS4s
2014 - 197k
2015 - 153k
2016 - 207k
2017 - 187k
2018 - 223k
Wow...so May is a pretty disappointing month of the year for console sales. I will probably forget this after I hit the post reply button.
Good to see Detroit selling well out of the gate. Cross it off the list.

Rainbow Six Siege is still beast I see. I still have yet to buy it. I wish it could be played solo like every Rainbow Six game ever. Well deserved sales for Detroit. Good game.
Happy to see Detroit has outsold Heavy Rain. That's an accomplishment.
Surprised to see SoD2 on top. That's a $30 game, so it needed to sell twice as much as $60 titles to achieve that rank. Fits with Phil's statement about it selling better than expected and Game Pass not hurting it.

I might actually be turning around on SoT. Sounds like Microsoft will be investing in it for at least a little while and there's tons of potential there. I could see the game being pretty solid a year from now. It's like a mini Fortnite.
I would never consider playing such a bad looking(fable art sux) and not surprised bad rated game.
Destiny looked good when it released.
The year 2 content got GOTY awards.
