Fallout 4 Ships 12 Million Copies in One Day, Breaks Records

@mattklanks: yeah u right the witcher 3 is better on Pc than console hahaha ur so retard , ur product of abortion

@mattklanks: You're an idiot.

@jecomans: That's weird, most people seem to think your opinion is stupid.

@irocket80: Bethesda has been actively outselling each game before it for about two decades now. This isn't surprising. Especially given what a huge improvement Fallout 4 is over its past games in a ton of ways. Also, Fallout is an established franchise in the games industry. Even well before Bethesda got a hold of it. You're being pretty ridiculous in suggesting that Fallout doesn't have fame without the Elder Scrolls.

@irocket80: Huh???

@plaintomato: Fallout 4 is a huge improvement over Fallout 3 in MANY ways. Especially the combat, world design, customization options, animations, enemy AI (a tremendously huge improvement here), settlement building, object variety, etc. Have you even played the game?

By the way, Morrowind was better than Oblivion in many ways. The combat was better in Oblivion, but world design in Oblivion favored quantity of content over quality. A lot of generic locations, MUCH less detailed and interesting world design, the story was generic by comparison, the world didn't have an alive feeling like Morrowind, etc. Morrowind is by far my favorite Elder Scrolls game, and Oblivion (though I still quite enoyed it) is definitely not better than Skyrim imo. Skyrim has its own problems though. That being said, Fallout 4 is absolutely amazing and improves on the series in a ton of ways. You either haven't played the game or you're falling for the same "next gen gameplay" nonsense that other people love to spout but have no clue what they actually want or expect.

@dysonlu: Diablo 3 sold 30 million copies total. It sold 10 million within the first week. Where the hell are you getting your numbers? They're WAY off. Starcraft 2 wasn't huge, but RTS hasn't been huge in years. That's not surprising. It's by far the most successful RTS in a long time. Diablo 3 though? It's a juggernaut. 10th best selling game of all time.

@dysonlu:

I don't think that 1.2million for PC is part of the 12million boxed retail sales. When games are activated on Steam, they are listed in the following categories...Steam Store, Retail, Gift and Complimentary. Everything I have read states 1.2million sold on Steam.

So much of PC gaming is digital that its hard to know how many total copies of game (Steam & Retail) were sold.

@charlieholmes: More buggy, shallow, 'streamlined' games with below par mechanics? No thanks.

@silversix_: Game is amazing on every platform. Its just an amazing game. Celebrate a victory for gamers. Don't make it into a childish platform war. The game definitely looks better and performs a bit better on PC (though it runs fine on the PS4 as well). It also has considerably more bugs on PC. What you prefer is up to you.

@razecah12: Objectively, states an opinion. Lol, continue making yourself look like an idiot I guess.

@razecah12: I couldn't disagree more. Fallout 4 is better than The Witcher 3 in just about every way imaginable imo. I liked the Witcher 3 a lot and played through it all (going to every location even). That being said, the content in the Witcher 3 started getting stale about halfway through. Especially all the damn treasure chests in the water in Skellige and the fact that everything you find after about level 12 is pointless because you can craft better than everything you'll ever find. The fact that it tells you where to find all the recipes also makes exploration about pointless other than to see everything (and the content isn't varied enough to make that very enjoyable anyway). No, Fallout 4 has FAR more content and exploring is much more interesting than in the Witcher 3. It's fine if you like that formula more, but I much prefer the wide open and constantly wondering what you'll find next feeling you get from Fallout. Finding a bobblehead, magazine, or unique weapon/armor keeps you exploring in Fallout. The Witcher 3 is all about finding a treasure chest that you'll just sell everything inside anyway. Meh. I like both games, but Fallout 4 is better in my opinion in every possible way.

@razecah12: I don't think you know what 'objectively' means

@tajirinere: poor witcher, I totally ignored it this year ... seems like Bethesta/Zenimax has a great run atm, they are almost like Blizzard just not so cartoony and their in game engines are superior ...

get u some of that:

@Kelreynn: Yeah Bethesda really stepped up when it comes to bugs. Fallout 4 is far less full of bugs than their past games. It's nice. Combat and enemy AI is infinitely better as well. I really enjoy combat outside of VATS in Fallout 4. In Fallout 3 it was painful lol.

@kjouda: They will have some mods on Xbox and PS4 too.
