Watchdogs isn't really a big 3rd party title. Wait for COD advance warfare then you can come and talk to me. And like I said, it took one of Nintendo's most prized games to get that far and they are already drifting behind. Soon you can't rely on big franchises while Sony and Microsoft can rely on third party and first party exlcusives.

U have got to be kidding, Watch Dogs isnt a big 3rd party game? Its Ubisoft's biggest opener ever with 4 million in the first week. And like I said a $100 price cut couldnt bring it ahead. Also this thread is just about this year so anything releasing beyond that is irrelevent to the discussion.

Watchdogs was marketed as a PS4 game.
X1 hasn't really had a major 3rd party multiplat associated/marketed with it yet other than Cod Ghost last year.
Later this year though it will have Evolve, Dragon Age Inquizition, AC Unity, Fiffa, and Cod. All thoes games will be marketed for X1 as Microsoft has made marketing partenerships with the Publishers for them, so they should help boost X1 sales.

That certainly plays a part but just look at the sales of every PS4/One multiplat, in most cases the PS4 version sells roughly double and this will only increase as the PS4 is outselling One by a large margin on a weekly basis. PS4 has become the console of choice for multiplat games regardless of exclusive marketing.

Yea I think you are absolutely correct. It won't matter what platform a game is marketed on, peopel WANT the PS4 version. The PS4 right now has the hype almost of the PS2 here in the USA. No one talks about the One, but everyone wants a PS4. The word of mouth has been crazy. Also the stripping of a once integral part of your console and calling it a price cut did absoltuely NOTHING for the One. I highlgy doubt exclusive marketing will do anything. All I see at Gamestop is X Box One advertising, but u walk in the store and they have a pyramid of X Ones stacked from floor to roof, and they are sold out of PS4's.. It's an anomaly really.
