Lol, May 30 2007.

it is pretty much spot on

Sorry, I didn't leave the 360 out on purpose (from the thread title).

After reading the interview, it sounded like he was mostly talking about the PS3 - then just threw in the 360 for the hell of it (basically saying that they would like more 360 sales - no surprise there).

And the interview itself was primarily about the PS3 (not the Wii or 360):

"The publication's recent interview with Ubisoft's heads was part of a bigger piece entitled "Shelf Warmer PlayStation 3: Desperately Seeking Players,".

Apologies again, if this came across as being biased... :P

 

I think Ubisoft do have themselves to blame a lot. Delayed ports generally do not sell well.

Why don't why they wait until we see how Assassins Creed and Haze sell on the PS3 this fall before complaining since they largely only have themselves to blame. I personally have not purchased any Ubi games this year because of the lacking quality in the titles but I will be picking up AC and Haze.

UbiSoft are horrid devs this generations... the only system they can handle coding for is the Wii... not impressed.

Are you serious? FarCry and Driver: Parallel Lines were both disgusting to look at and unplayable. Horrible controls coupled with PSX graphics. There theirs the casual crapware that their hoping Retail Buyers purchase and sell to Casual Gamers. Hopefully Retail Buyers are smart and refuse to purchase that stuff and force Ubisoft to make better games. It's shocking to see a company that had so much promise fall so far in so short a time. These guys are worse than EA ever could be come.



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

 

^Are you seriously arguing against 5 month olds comments?

Jade Raymond should be in charge of every project at Ubisoft...

Sales would automatically lift many percentiles if she is pictured with each game.

Ubisoft doesn't have to change anything else....

LOL.

"Corre told Spiegel he is not content with sales of PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360."

 

These guys have million sellers on the 360 right? My lord are the budgets for the next gen consoles really so much higher that they are selling 1m+ on the 360 but are less impressed with it than they are with the success of RRR and Redsteel on the Wii? Man that is crazy. The PS3 part doesnt shock me, but the 360 part caught me off guard.


RRR and Red Steel are also million sellers.

 

[edit] whoops -- how did this thread get resurrected? 



Teh old.



Lol...

I think I'm just going to give this a lock...
