which is funny cause it's barely leading Batman on ps4 but it has no realse date so those will spike obviously. I anticipate Batman to spike to closer to release.

easily be the biggest release?? I'll give you two reasons it won't be. The definition of biggest release for starters means it will either sell the most or get the highest score. I bet it won't do either. COD will easily sell the most purely because its trash but people buy it every single year like sheep and as for score we have already had some great games but feel there are games like Witcher 3, MGS5 and Batman that could beat it out especially if the beta is anything to go by. Not to mention Bloodbourne is already the title to beat this year with a Metacritic rating of 92 (higher than H4, Master Chief Collection and Reach the last 3 Halo games)

Not to say it won't be an amazing 9/10 exclusive for xbox it probably will be or it may not be as this will be the first game not built at all by bungie (last Halo game wasn't Bungies but built on there old resources) so it's going to need something special to make it the hit MS wants it to be. Not to mention since Bungie has left no Halo game has over a 9 Metacritic rating. I just think its got a lot of stiff competition this year with some great titles coming out that are multiplatform too.

So to say it will easily be the biggest release this year is just being ignorant and ignoring all other games.

More than people realize. vgchartz has been shown to be incorrect time and again while Amazon has shown itself to be a very good litmus test for the current status of video game and game hardware sales. The hourly bestseller list which includes preorders doesn't have HALO 5 in the top 100. Meanwhile the number 2 item which includes the game is the Batman Arkham Knight PS4. In effect this makes the number one preordered game at Amazon is Arkham Knight on PS4. It will not be cataloguesd as such because it is in with the console. Mortal Kombat X on the PS4 is actually the most preordered game there.

Best Buy is similar with the AK PS4 the number 2 item but again, that copy of the game doesn't qualify. Again with Best Buy, they also have Mortal Kombat X on PS4 as their most preordered item.

I do not count Bloodborne or other released games because technically they are no longer a preorder.

How? The same games that are preordered for PS4 are preorder for X1. And all those make up the top 25. The only difference is that PS4's preorders are higher up in that top 25 list (for obvious reasons).

w/ 3rd party games

Not really considering it has twice as many owners. Halo being 1 when it's not even close to being released is impressive.

The disagree tears taste great thanks guys.
