Forums - Sony - Watch Dogs PS4 crosses 2 million before any version reaches 1M. (VGC numbers)

Does anyone have a fighting type lying around? PS4 needs to be stopped.

Just commented on the XB1 version's entry in the Game DB. This is fricking huge, I mean PS4 has sold as much in NA as the XB1 version has WW. You do have to wonder if some 3rd parties could be tempted to go exclusive again - probably not the uber-AAA tier stuff (CoD, GTA, etc.) but, maybe some new IPs, a bit like MS managed with Titanfall?



You should be happy with it. Tons of features and useful things via streaming from any device. And plenty of games coming out in the next 6 months.

Some will sooner or later, some dev with a little freedom will decinde to make the best game they can and not gymp it to achive parity.  Japanese devs will the first to lack reason to make a X1 versions of certain games. Plus "exclusive" is great marketing.

Yes this can open a lot of doors for them with exclusives. Even if they don't get the exlucsives for free it could make the cost of getting a game exclusive very low maybe low enough to have them do it. I don't think Sony wants to waste it's time buying IP's that could potentially leave like what MS does but it's possible they do it once or twice for the right game.

What this effectively does is make it much much harder for MS to buy exclusive anything at this point. DLC,timed exclusives, etc. At this point a delveoper would have to be either crazy or recieve a ton of money to make a game exlusive to the X1.

Good... lifetime i predict:
4,000,000 for PS4
3,000,000 for PS3
2,500,000 for XOne
2,000,000 for XBOX 360
500,000 for PC retail (2,000,000 retail+digital)
800,000 for Wii U
Total: 12,000,000-15,000,000

Looking at Black Flag the Wii U version would be lucky to hit 200,000 imo.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

No, Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag on Wii U sell 1,500-2,000 copies on week, in one maximum 2 month, Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag sell more of 200,000.

And in the end of year 250,000-300,000, lifetime 400,000-500,000.

The game in Wii U continue to sell in time.

Watch Dogs probabily sell 150,000-200,000 first week, 400,000 in 2014, and lifetime 800,000.

My opinion.

Those are VGChartz number, don´t hold them that much as fact.

PS: Whatch Dogs with more attached rate than Infamous? That explain why Sony is postponing exclusives all around.

Its a heavly marketed hyped open world SHOOTER, do you have any common sense ?


Just a lot of anger towards the PS4.



Don't care for which one sells best really, but the fact that an average game like this one is doing so well is scary. That means Ubisoft will be more willing to put shit on the street for games.



The sales numbers represent the PS4 fanbases hunger for AAA content. Everyone talks up the indie games like they are gold til the real deal is available. Just think, this fall when some more AAA games come out on the PS4, they will sell really well too.



It is near the end of the end....
