why lie though? Lying just makes you seem more upset
There is no reality where horizon is not charting as a top selling game. The only games selling better than Horizon this year are Lego, elden ring, and Pokemon and this is after bundles, it was number #3 this year before that. I know its tough to see but we’ll get through it
I like how you didn't include the actual June chart where Horizon doesn't manage to break into the top 20.

For the exact reason that you said it charts in the UK, becuase the NPD doesn’t count bundled games as individual sales
Why else would it not chart in a month with bundles in the us but it would chart number 2 in the uk with the same bundles?

It charted at 8 in the UK, not 2.

Oh, so it’s number 8 for the entire month of june (a month where elden ring didn’t chart at all) and that was for digital and physical sales
Also this game is going on 6months old, are we supposed to pretend its supposed to be in the top 3 all year in order to be relevant? The original horizon wasn’t charting at all around this time and still went on to sell 20 million.

what a failure
also imagine trying to downplay horizon’s sales when people don’t even want to play Halo Infinite, their biggest game, for free. Destiny, a Sony game is charting higher
Are we seriously going to act like Xbox fans don't put multiplats up against PlayStation exclusives whenever PlayStation has a GOTY candidate
God of War vs Red Dead Redemption 2
Resident Evil 2 vs Death Stranding
There are other examples too

Facts. It's either they side with a multiplat or Nintendo. They use Nintendo a lot when it comes to game sales

I loved the game but doing an award show in the middle of the year confuses me.
I would guess it's about getting attention?

No, it's just a cut-off date. Not even Geoff's The Game Awards show takes into account every game releasing from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31 in a calendar year.
Even for TGA, it leaves a few games releasing at the end of the year. So it's the same thing with this show: an arbitrary 12-month period.
It's #8 with forced bundles where people essentially weren't able to buy a PS5 without the game packed in. Good for you if you find that impressive. Btw, the game was 4 months old in June. One would expect at least some legs.
Horizon Forbidden West was charting before the bundles
Bundling it with PS5 is a brilliant move to gain mindshare too
Yeah, it was charting when it was new. That's what usually happens when games release.Horizon Forbidden West was charting before the bundles
