Battlefield 4 is the most pre-ordered next-gen game

4.4
Battlefield 4 is currently the most pre-ordered PlayStation 4 and Xbox One game. It’s outselling not only its main rival, Call of Duty Ghosts, but also the first party launch titles from Sony and Microsoft.
According to the latest pre-order charts from VGChartz, Battlefield 4 is pre-ordered more than the PS4 launch titles such as Killzone Shadow Fall, and Microsoft titles such as Forza Motorsport 5. Suffice to say, there is huge anticipation around Battlefield 4 at this point.
Thanks to a successful E3, pre-orders have rocketed at GameStop and Amazon. The success was so great at Amazon, that they chose to bundle Battlefield 4 with some of the PlayStation 4 pre-orders.
Battlefield will launch on October 29, and pre-orders have been available for months now. A special Deluxe version includes access to the Battlefield 4 beta, which will also be available to all BF3 Premium members. BF4′s main rival this Fall, Call of Duty Ghosts, launches just a week later, so competition will be immense, just as it was in 2011 between BF3 and Modern Warfare 3.

-Tam i think this might out sell cod this time round


It will. CoD has been going downhill since Mw2.


Not necessarily. Call of duty reached it's high point of sales in Modern Warfare 3. Since then it has went on a downhill trend though. Consumers are starting to move away from the franchise and going to Battlefield, which is the second of the main 2 popular shooters


Black Ops 1 and Black Ops 2 were the most sold CoD games. At the time of it's release, Black Ops 1 was the most sold game in history, something MW3 didn't beat. Black Ops 1 is the best CoD. MW games are so repetitive and dumb. CoD 4 was horrid, MW 2 was crap, and MW 3 was a poor excuse for a game.


Wrong. The most sold game in history was Tetris.


I think he meant for the seventh generation consoles, I think 7th gen is the Xbox 360 and PS3 :) But if he didn't mean that, then yes Tetris was the biggest seller :)


Sigh... Wrong again. Does no one ever do research these days? Do you just spout nonsense you believe to be true? CoD Black Ops 1 was the highest grossing video game EVER. While Tetris made... $8 million?... From the NES and a few more from the GameBoy, Black Ops 1 sold over 23 million COPIES and made over $1.5 BILLION, that's right, billion. CoD 4 was only $700 million, and MW 2 at about close to $800 million. At the time, Wii Sports (or Wii Play? Correct me if I'm wrong) was the highest game sold. Funny, both MW 1 and 2 getting beat by a Wii game. Quite the laugh.

Wavelength I'm actually surprised this is the most pre-ordered game. I thought Call of Duty would beat it.


Call of Duty is starting to get boring though, Battlefield is actually fun. BF3 is more enjoyable than playing Black Ops 2 tbh.


Battlefield also looses it touch after 5 or so game releases though.


That's the case with every game series. You can't just add 9 sequels to the same series.


True. Call of duty is starting to get to the level of final fantasy when it comes to sequels.

-Mark I hope this game becomes more popular.

I would love to see people move from CoD over to battlefield.

It's such a better series in my opinion


Me to, it's time for a change, CoD have lost there thunder.


Many people have lost interest in the call of duty franchise lately. That's why Battlefield is now the most pre-ordered game


I have lost interest in it. I play bf3 now. I can't stand playing BO2. I about break my controller every time I play it.

Battlefield 3 is more enjoyable than all CODs for me. Battlefield has more of a challenge to it, physics wise. So I'm not surprised that this is the most pre-ordered game for next-gen consoles.
