Lol seriously what are you talking about? Of course the hardware sales are going to drop. Why wouldn't they drop after a major game releases? Just like the sales of software drop after its release, so does hardware.

Also this is about sales not what Destiny could be, you said market exclusivity and exclusive content do nothing, except they do, the PS4 almost sold twice as many than the XBO that month. 

Watchdogs wasn't ignored by Xbox One owners, it just did better on PS4 because these types of games do well on PlayStation than Xbox. It did decent for a new IP. Also it was marketed by Sony a lot.

 

Doing little is different from doing nothing.

Any way the situation with WD and Destiny were different from one another and CoD BO3 is also diffent. We are now talking about a very established franchise. 

I only pointed that those "pretended" exclusives don´t make a sharp cut in user adoption. I showed that CoD always sold very well on the PS3 despite the very strong relation XOne. GTA also did very well on the 360 and XOne despite it relation with Playstation.

Everybody was happy.

You guys are now making a big deal of this supposed tie-in even looking for clues in the studio test room for obscure consoles hide in the shadows.

That is going far way over the top of reseanable expectations.

And where are you getting this information about it doing nothing in October? If you're saying 300k in October with no big game release is nothing then, lol.

It also doesn't matter about established franchise, the main point of market exclusivity is not too sell copies but too sell consoles. This is also a current gen game and if people start seeing the PlayStation logo with CoD BO3 ads they will be more inclined to buy a PS4 because it's the console they will associate with.

We aren't going over the top, it's pretty obvious whatever deal MS had with Activision with CoD has changed and this is proof of that. You're underestimating CoD in terms of it selling consoles espically with it being current gen only.  

CoD AW selling almost 8 million last gen consoles and now most of these people are going to look too buy current gen consoles and it's nothing too you? Lol

Even if those number are accurated the folowing months showed that Destiny bump fiseled realy fast with hollyday sales.

Have Destiny lived up to its promisses  would things be different? 

May be.

But a better counter prof could be made with Watchdogs which got realy ignored by Xbox owners.

I don´t think that would happen. Most people won´t even notice if there is any difference from past years interations.

But the advertising deal for Destiny sold PS4s. That's the bottom line and the reason these companies value advertising deals.



 

The PS5 Exists.

when did people star caring so much about COD all of the sudden, when it was microsoft oriented, people slammed it but now that it might be PS oriented, people suddenly want to talk about COD again

im so confused D: lol


Hmmm?  I cared about it for four years on my 360, and am enjoying it for the first year on PS4 playing Advanced Warefare. That and all the Blacks Ops 3 threads have actually been pretty big here.

Lets not fool ourselves... This is a big deal and a huge win for Sony. COD is the biggest yearly franchise, and I expect Sony to be right there advertising their console.

BO3...meh, even without exclusive marketing PS4 will have a lead anyway, and even without exclusive games PS4 will still lead this year, but now ps4 have both from exclusive marketing and exclusive games. So it's not bad but at the same time i feel they just wasting money for this the need to put more money on more first party exclusive or buy more third party exclusive.

It's all one big conspiracy when it comes to Sony fans. They are all hypocrites, they backpedel, etc, etc.

/sarcasm

Remember the time you made similar generalizations comments about MS and Ninty fans? Me neither.
