**May 2016 NPD Results (Uncharted 4 slays all competition)**

Shamelessly stolen from GAF...

Source

Software:

1. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End (PS4) - It's either the best or second best selling Uncharted game. I think the text is implying second best after Uncharted 3, but I can't tell 100%. Either way it's a relatively large number.
2. Doom (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
3. Overwatch (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
4. Battleborn (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
5. Grand Theft Auto V (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3, PC)
6. Minecraft (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
7. NBA 2K16 (PS4, Xbox One, 360, PS3)
8. Call of Duty: Black Ops III (Xbox One, PS4, 360, PS3, PC)
9. MLB 16: The Show (PS4, PS3)
10. Dark Souls III (PS4, Xbox One)

Notes:

- “New launches were a major driver of the growth seen in May 2016 compared to May 2015,” NPD analyst Liam Callahan said in a statement. “Collectively, May 2016 new launches sold nearly double in unit sales and 108 percent more in dollars as new launches last May. These May 2016 launches represented 51 percent of overall new physical software sales for the month.”

- “Uncharted 4 also marked the best first month of sales for any game in the Uncharted series after Uncharted 3, which is remarkable given the fact that it launched during the holiday period in November 2011,” said Callahan. “The success of Uncharted helped Sony rank as the leading software publisher for May 2016.”

“In May 2016, gaming hours on Xbox One more than doubled compared to last year, driven by the launches of Overwatch and Doom as well as the addition of Call of Duty: Black Ops to the catalog of Xbox 360 titles playable on Xbox One,” Xbox marketing vice president Mike Nichols said in a statement provided to GamesBeat.

Damn! Naughty Gods are on fire!! I knew UC4 would do well but I didn't know it would beat out such strong competition like Overwatch and Doom. Congrats to Naughty Gods for their success! We are humbled.

Sorry but ship has sailed and folks have moved on from Uncharted. Also Overwatch was released the last week of that month, so your point is on weak standing.

Yay for Doom....so much fun.

MLB still in the charts as well. Quantum Break already gone.

Butthurt because? I bought Uncharted 4 and didn't buy Overwatch. But in your small mind I am butthurt. Try harder next time. BTW your point is still weak. :D

Is anyone really surprised Quantum Flop fell off the charts other than lems?

Double gaming hours on Xbox One, good lord that thing is running overtime. I knew it was popular, but dayum dats good.

@Pedro: I play Uncharted 4 almost daily.

Congrats to Sony and Naughty Dog.

@Pedro: the game also had an open beta to front load sales and hype.

It's a shame you're not here to talk about Quantum Break or an XBOX game, but it looks like you've nothing to talk about on that front.

So much salt lol.

Cry more.

I will need you to try much harder. Those tactics are weak, just like your original point. :)

Good to see Doom putting up numbers.

lol @ the PC version trailing in last place.

Your "tactics" are pathetic. You can't claim ownage with a multiplat that is selling more on PS4.

PS4 owners are playing Overwatch and Uncharted. What are lems playing? I play both Uncharted 4 and Overwatch almost daily.

Quantum Flop fell off the charts because even you lems won't buy your own turds.

Looks like the Xbox One continues to bypass the Xbox 360 in sales...nice.

the metrics you lems like to flaunt really show how low your standards are. I'm glad MS's shillspeak gets you fired up though.

Ouch, Street Flopper V and Ratchet & Flop no longer on the top 10. That's gonna sting.

As long as $ony shill speak gets you wet.

Funny, I didn't mention anything about Quantum Break. Are you still secretly playing it instead of Uncharted. Awe. Thats cute. Comparing the sales of a game that was on the market for 1 week to a game that one the market for 3 is dumb. But you wouldn't know anything about that. You are too busy pushing Quantum Break in to every argument. Time to

I'm not much of a sales wars guy so excuse my ignorance here, but was SFV ever in the top 10?

This is my non-fanboy reply - Oh that is good for ND and Sony keep giving us all that gaming goodness.

This is my System Wars reply - Overrated 4 is #1 that is cool. Next month's June NPD it will not be. Overwatch is going to be for sure!

Yup

@kvally: considering the Xbox One hit shelves with a 1-2 million units head start in the US, that's not particularly strong. Also, this proves beyond any doubt that the Bone is not selling as well as the 360 worldwide at this point in the generation.

This is going to be a rough year for the Lems if there aren't genuine bombs at e3.

@Shewgenja: Ignore it and it will go away.

Actually you are incorrect yet again. Don't you ever get embarrassed? I mean you are consistently wrong.

@Pedro: I'm still playing the mp.

Moving the Goalposts?

You said the same rubbish about Halo 5? Are you sure QB flopped? Anyway well done Sony and Naughty dog.

I think he temporarily deleted them.

Still relying on your butthurt slogan? Tsk. All of this effort to avoid the fact that stating that a game that has been out 3X longer than another is blowing it away in sales as some sort of accomplish is dumb. Its ok you can cry now. Everybody cries.

Console userbase be damned, I will be so butthurt if Uncharted 3 outsold 4 in those similar periods of time. >:-(

I want to post gifs and call you guys smelly poo poo heads.

Shoo.

Let the butthurt flow through you....

awwwwwww yeahhhhhhhhh

Nice for Sony and ND, they deserve this.

You seems to be lost, butthurt little lemming. How about you go talk about some xbone exclusives like... hmmm.......

@ConanTheStoner: ?????

Stop being a monkey. And stop using terms you don't understand.

Its funny that people like yourself always make an ASS yourself into thinking everyone is a "lem".

Dont worry buddy, everyone knows about it already. You can come out of the closet anytime.

Vocabulary increased. You have leveled up. Meltdown and butthurt. Anymore generic words you will like to add? I would hate to for you to run out of words.

Uncharted 4 continues to be a the forefront of gaming , as it should be with its perfect 10/10 AAAAE Essential Exclusive game score.

The dude is having a complete meltdown in my thread lol.

This happens in every NPD thread though so I'm not surprised.

Really though? This thread is disappointing.

Anyway @Pedro Doom came out 3 days later, sold on three platforms and only managed to come in second. Overwatch, with it's amazing hype, came in third on the same three platforms. These games couldn't overtake a game that launched on a single platform. It's impressive and there's no real reason trying to down play it.

Awe. Did my post hurt your fweewings?

So, you believe if you keep saying the same thing over and over that you will eventually believe it. OK.

Its the SW, we can downplay ANYTHING. :D

The power of the PS4.

By gamers FOR gamers, the current gen 8 console leading PS4 way

awwww yeahhhhh
