Ya...making a exclusive Bioshock for Vita isn't a smart thing to do.

Making an exclusive Assasin's Creed wasn't a bad idea...

Sales say otherwise


Actually all signs point that it will be a million+ seller in the longrun Hell it could even catch up to a certain racer you might like

 

OT: make it happen Sony, it will help the Vita

Bundle sales don't mean profit for Ubisoft, maybe just a small cut for every bundle. It really only helps Sony.

I trully doubt that Sony did not chip in with some kind of offer, to get an exclusive Vita AC

Ubisoft was happy with the Assassins Creed: Liberation sales.

lol its called PR. You expect them to say it sucked?

Did it? Compare it to core 3rd party games on the Wii U and suddenly ACIII:L sells like cupcakes. It's already over 400k and still going very strong every week. I'm sure it met the expectations Ubi had upon the launch of the game 5 weeks ago. It will challenge Uncharted for the No. 1 spot on the Vita sales chart and will become one of the best selling games on both handhelds of this generation. You really think anyone would consider this a flop? It's selling very well and should have legs like Kylie Minogue. Maybe not the longest in world, but damn are they sexy! ;)



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Most of them are from bundles. Im all for bundle sales, but do it after a period of time has passed so the game can sell on its own legs. Ubi gets little money from a bundle sale. Either way, your telling me a Vita game has to be bundled from the start to be a hit.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

No you really are talking out of your ass.

Game is guaranteed to cross 1 million. There's plenty of things to hate, the sales of this game are very good.

No one knows how much ubisoft gets from bundles but i bet that ubisoft gets $10-$20 per bundle. For all we know they could get $40 for every bundle sold.

It'd be a rather terrible move on Levine's part to promise Bioshock on the Vita and not do it. Honestly I wouldn't mind if they outsourced it to another studio, as long as Levine's taking some time to make sure it's going in the right direction. If 2K isn't willing to publish it, an agreement should be worked out in a way that Sony can publish the game themselves.

Honestly I could care less if they put Bioshock on the Vita it isn't a system seller game. They need a world wide heavy hitter like a Final Fantasy or something along those lines.
