So the game is dominating reviews, dominating sales rankings, and selling out of stores...and yet people underestimate the sales.

I hope it does well.

If it outsells Dark Souls 2 that would be very impressive.
Not that this is any indication of sales, but Bloodborne has 38.2K likes on PSN as of just over 4 days being available.
For comparisons sake, Battlefield Hardline is sitting at 28.1K and Borderlands Handsome Collection at 8.2K. Interesting seeing the rate at which Bloodborne is rising. And fast.
Just saying. Why in the world does Sony not update the TV commercial with quotes and scores from gaming websites? It could have attracted audience and watchers a lot easier with all the amazing review scores the game has.
IMO, the ups and downs of Bloodbrne sales on hourly charts are mostly connected to the time of day in US. We can expect next ~6-7 hours for sales to be good, and then to drop off a bit when majority of US go to sleep. Cards will remain strong because international crowd want them for purchases on cheaper US PSN.Starting to knock down the PSN cards again
Except Souls games have a track record of sales success. And Bloodborne isn't a 3rd party game on a dead Nintendo platform (a sequel to a game that wasn't there to begin with).

Regular Bloodborne is still in stock on Amazon. The Collector's Edition is sold out though.
I hope it does well.
Sold out at my Target and a lot of the other ones in Houston.
I just hope outsells The Order. Just so the message gets sent that we prefer gameplay over 'interactive movies'
US - 450k
EU - 400K
JP - 150K
this is my prediction.

I'm in awe of all this. Like, nearly tears of joy thinking about it.
I remember playing Demon's Souls day 1, and yes, there was a little bit of hype from people who had imported it (which is why I had it preordered), but even so it exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds... but I never, ever thought it would successful and lead to multiple spiritual successors, etc.
And then when PS4 was announced, I remember hoping beyond hope that we'd get some sort of Demon's Souls 2... and we eventually did, in the form of Bloodborne. And now it's getting amazing reviews and chewing up the charts.
So good. So good for gaming, so good for the future of the genre and the franchise, so good.
Thank you From + Sony. If you guys can give me my GOTG two gens in a row, I don't even know what else to say.
Yep. You don't take out prime time ads during the walking dead and then only ship 300k copies to sell.
I would have bought in on PC but that's not going to happen. I'll have to be satisfied by watching twitch. Bummer time.
I hope it does well.
Unlike the majority of Platinum's titles, the souls series actually do sell.
Unlike Nintendo who basically did shit all to promote Bayo 2, Sony actually did a great job advertising Bloodborne.
I didn't read the spoilers thread, and I don't have the game.
But I read that the bosses are extremely easy and that there's a graphical downgrade.
The former would guarantee more sales for the wider demographic. Not sure if the latter's true (didn't enter thread, which is now locked).
383k at retail and #1 on the PS4 digital sales chart for the month. I think the digital version may end up cannibalizing the physical version's sales quite a bit given the games's core audience and just how insanely hyped they were for it.
There's another reason why digital sales will be strong.

I guess the game atracted a lot of first time buyers when it comes to Souls games. The first boss defeat statistics will be interesting to see.
Still sitting at No.1 on the UK Amazon charts.
