Call of Duty: Ghosts leading software preorder sales - analyst
The data comes via analysts Cowen & Co, which compiles data based on NPD sale statistics and Amazon.com bestseller information. Titles are given a score based on patterns observed from these sources over the past five years, with the firm claiming its projections are between 96 and 97 per cent accurate.
Call of Duty: Ghosts is the top ranked title at 73 points, followed by Watch Dogs and Grand Theft Auto 5 at 69.6 and 58.4 respectively. Cowen analyst Doug Creutz notes that Ghosts is currently under-performing when compared to Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
Meanwhile, Creutz admits that the ranking for GTA V is "almost certainly" incorrect, as the company's data only accounts for sales made since E3 2013. The title has been available for preorder since November 2012.
Multi-platform games rank the highest, with the first next-gen exclusive title ranking fifth in the form of Killzone Shadow Fall for PlayStation 4. Forza 5 is the highest ranking Xbox One exclusive, ranking seventh.
The list:
1. Call of Duty: Ghosts (73)
2. Watch Dogs (69.6)
3. Grand Theft Auto V (58.4)
4. Battlefield 4 (54.7)
5. Killzone: Shadow Fall (30.3)
6. Assassin's Creed IV (29.2)
7. Forza 5 (18.8)
8. Diablo III (18.2)
9. Batman: Arkham Origins (17.2)
10. Dead Rising 3 (15.0)
11. Ryse (13.2)
12. Saints Row IV (10.1)
13. Knack (7.7)
14. Gran Turismo 6 (5.0)
15. Beyond: Two Souls (3.3)
16. Wolfenstein: The New Order (3.2)
17. Drive Club (3.0)
18. Splinter Cell: Blacklist (2.9)

Watch dogs is very close to Ghosts and I think that it might be able to take over Ghosts as the most pre-ordered game. I really don't think that Battlefield 4 should be that low on the list. This really doesn't mean anything and it is not a shock that it is not doing as well as BO2 because it had zombies and more people play Treyarch COD's.

I'm not going to let a list disappoint me. I still think that GTA V will have more sales overall than CoD Ghosts. And maybe BF4 too. These are just the pre-orders, and a lot of people like to see which game is the most highly accepted by the public before making their purchase.

I am a little surprised by this, I would have thought that Ghosts would have been beaten by GTA V and Battlefield 4.
