| Mazzy said: Conjecture? Saying that a game with the largest ever PlayStation marketing campagin changes the context in which the game is a success is conjecture? Is it also conjecture when people said QB was a massive flop due to it being a prominent AAA exclusive with hours of FMV cutscenes? Do I need the budget down to the penny before we can say it was a flop? Do you not understand that context changes with the budget, marketing, and prominency of a game? I can already name five better performing games this gen: GTAV, Battlefront, Watch_Dogs, Arkham Knight, FIFA, CoD AW, CoD BO3, Destiny, The Division, Fallout 4. And those are just PS4 sales. And don't ask me, ask Sony why they haven't released any PR and why they overshipped to Amazon. I would say wait for US sales, but I know people say it's a success even if it just sells 1m.

I don't know, you're getting down Another48Hour's posting style rather perfectly...
But anyways, I'm not sure why the price being lower on Amazon is such a red flag, when all of the other retailers which hold ~95% of the total US marketshare still has UC4 at full price. How do you know that the lack of PR means UC4 underperformed? How do you know that Sony is not waiting until a later date to reveal the numbers? What are Sony's specific sales expectations? So yeah, you're just giving a bunch of conjectures because you're never specific.
