Ghosts is trash. For once I rented it first instead of buying it and i'm glad. I wouldn't waste 10 dollars on it.

Great thing CoD isn't 1st, I have been hearing really bad things about the game. I have also heard, that it has been getting really low review scores! Which, I wouldn't anyone, because CoD, is the same thing every year!

Does nobody else think the statistics are bogus?

"The Xbox 360 version of CoD Ghosts accounted for 62 per cent of sales, the PS3 edition for 34 per cent, the PS4 version for three per cent, and the PC and Wii U editions for the remainder."

Leaving PC and Wii U with 1%? o.o I haven't kept up with this game's launch at all, but how in the world would pc end up with less than 1% of all the purchases? And people preordered on the Ps4, but not Xbox One? Am I missing something? :l

Sales, awards, ratings etc etc all say different, Just because you was everyone's k/d raiser on GTA V there is no need to hate.

Amp- I expected this to happen, that it would be in the top 3. Now let's just see if it ever passes GTA.


I don't think it will ever pass Grand Theft Auto V. That game was a huge success to say the very least
