Oct 2014 PS4/Xbox top 100:
8 PS4
17 PS4 Destiny
31 Xbox Kinectless
43 Halo Collection
65 Last of Us Remastered
58 Driveclub
77 Forza Horizon 2
Not good opening placings for either racer (FH2 was 71 in Sept top 100). They're both out of the hourly top 100 by now. This shows racing is still a niche genre and mostly used for console war fodder. Sunset and LBP3 won't make much of a sales impact either according to the numbers.
The heavy hitting games this holiday are Destiny, Halo Collection, Smash Bros Wii U, GTA, CoD, AC, Farcry, Dragon Age, and sports games. Halo is not likely to make up for PS4 being the console of multiplatform choice this holiday.
VGChartz estimates for Sept 2014
Global: PS4 1242k, XB1 678k, Wii U 221k
USA: PS4 405.8k, XB1 247.2k, Wii U 82.5k
According to VGC, Xbox had larger global sales this month by launching in 29 new markets including China. PS4's launch in China should be significant, 300-400k imo. The global sales gap widened by another ~550k despite the tier 2 launches.
Imo VGC is undertracking PS4 in the USA. Destiny hit 33 in the 2014 top 100 in a single month of sales, that's at least ~400k units alone, plus normal PS4 sales. Sept NPD is this thursday.
