Next gen for Ubi will be all hands on deck, even Sony seem to be doing that (hence all the courting indie developers to fill the void on Vita) Eitherway, they're under no obligation to support Vita regardless of how past titles have sold, it's their own business decision.

They obviously felt the resources were better focused on ACIV than making a PSV game this year.

But the team is working on AC IV because making AC III Liberation was less profitable.

thats just speculation or your part, they didnt say anything like that, they are making AC4 because they were told to

But that is the only logical reason for Ubisoft to decide that those resources are better spent on AC IV than a Vita game

no not really, This is the biggest game in the franchise in a while, one forgets they are also putting it on next gen consoles which would require even more man power. PC,PS3/4, WiiU, Xbone/360 thats alot of platforms. two more than last year. I think they have more people working on this entry than any other one prior.

Hopefully Ubisoft doesn't drop it's WiiU support, they make some really great games.

I hope they both pick up soon and actually do well


Vita will most likely pick up a bit with its pricecut. Ninty is betting on the games this year, but it doesn't really have any big hitter arriving, it will most likely pick up in 2014.

AC III was meant to be the biggest game in the franchise! They could always just hire a few extra people to port it. I just feel that they could have slightly cut back on AC IV to make another Vita game. They definitely could have done and they definitely chose not to

Faith, what people say when they don't have a good reason for believing something.

The scale of this one is going to be much larger. Im not disagreeing with what you said. Im just saying just cause they chose that route, doesnt mean that they dont have faith in Vita. Its simply for development reasons. Hell they were supposed to do a 3DS game and the killed that and used some of those ideas and assests for Revelations. I would have loved a follow up but hey i just saved 50 bucks.

I think it is time to disagree. I just hope AC IV is damm good, because I really enjoyed Liberation
