Three PS4 Exclusives Feature in UK's Best Selling Games of 2017

Can't believe how many copies of ghost recon have been sold!! Never hear anyone talk about it. crash selling nearly as many as battlefront 2 in a year with a star wars movie, is also a surprise. you would hope EA would sit up an take notice of impact of microtransactions on sales.

Put that in your tea and drink it.

I think my biggest takeaway from the report is that pre-owned sales are down 15.1%, despite the market being up.

Those PSN sales must be eating into GAME/CEXs lunch.

Good numbers all around. I wonder how The Lost Legacy performed?

I’m surprised by a few of these, but mainly by Crash Bandicoot. I have been continually impressed at how popular it is. And when timed exclusivity is over, I’ll be curious to see how many more units it sells on top of all these PlayStation sales it made.

@YummyHappyPills 15 million Switches sold is anything but "bottom of the pile". UK is Sony Land, everyone knows that except you, apparently.

@EVIL-C oh he knows... he knows...

Great to see Horizon do well for a new IP, but disappointing it couldn't outsell those other two. I've played Horizon, GT Sport and the Crash Bandicoot collection and Horizon is easily the best of them all.

Nice, you don't see this kind news on others outlet, only why the switch is so great etc

@EVIL-C butthurt Nintendo fans priceless. 😂

I'm so tired of this god damn trio Fifa Call of GTA... So many people reduce "videogames" to this three titles, calling this activity a childich one (quite paradoxal whe you think of the public aimed by this titles).

I'm tired of explaining to people that videogames can be so much more than "Boum you're dead ! - Oh yeah GOAAAAAAAAAL - Hey nice I'm a criminal I can kill cops and go see hookers". When I talk about Journey, about Ico, about Lost Odissey, about Metal Gear Solid, about Zelda, when I say that videogames can tell stories in the same way cinema does, sometimes even better, making you feel real and powerfull emotions... people just don't believe me. Think I'm an alien. Videogames are childich and dangerous activities where you have to kill people and score some goals.

Erf... -_-'

Hmm, I only own two games in that list - Horizon Zero Dawn, which I bought Day 1 and still haven't got round to playing it yet (damn backlog) and Ghost Recon, which is actually a pretty decent shooter although the missions did get repetitive after a while.

Good news for Sony though & that's why they lead the way in terms of in-house studios and exclusives.

What a horrible list! would play 2 titles among those listed...

UK only cares about Fifa and CoD, these figures mean nothing.

Criminal Zelda isn't on there

Wow... Makes you proud to live in the UK when you realise that FIFA and COD literally repeat hashes of the same game that come out annually sell almost five times more than Crash and Horizon. Apparently us Brits have no taste in video games!

I think i might be the only gamer in the UK to have not bought GTA V lol i just don't see the appeal of the series, never have, but it must be doing something right to be captivating so many people.

I do get tired of the continual MS/Nintendo bashing on here, trying to say the PS4 is the only console to offer more than two games a year worth buying is just nonsense, while Sony's success is well earned and their UK dominance is undisputed, it's still not healthy to only have one successful player in the market, thankfully Nintendo's market share is on the up after the Wii U years.

As for MS, after such a terrible launch i'm surprised the X1 has held on like it has, its clear they are just coasting the rest of this generation and are well aware it cannot hope to reach PS4 levels of sales, i just hope they are in the process of building up their studios ready for their next console to have more exclusives, its madness that they think they can thrive without them.
