Those advertisement exclusive deals helped propell the Xbox 360 last gen.  But if what you are saying is right, the COD system is only the Xbox (according to perception not actual sales) because of aggressive advertizing.   I think Activizon wanted it this way though.  They can piviot to Xbox for one game and PS4 for another.   It only worked out in Activision's favor because of PS4's inflated base.   By November they will be Xbox full force again with a full custom system.   

Activision just keeps winning and they do it without accutally doing full exclusives.  EA should take note. 

It's obviously the same on XBox with exclusive ads and stuff for Xbox. 

I think CoD is a well known franhcise and excluisve ads won't do much anymore but for new games like Watch_Dogs, Destiny, Evolved (if it will get an excluisve marketing campaign for Xbox) and so on I really wonder if exclusive ads are really better as if you would mention all platforms in TV commercials. 

It's not about gamers like us who don't really buy games because of ads on Television but about the average Joe who only buys what they tell him in commercials^^

Your title of the post is bias towards PS4 and therefore your poll result will be pro-PS4...... You would of validated the result if the Title of the post was "Which console were you planning on playing Destiny?" 

Your survey is sadly bias and invalid.

It is not my survey and the title comes from the linked article.   The poll on the page asks a simple question.  The question is not biased.  The results are from the people who chose to vote and their choices are not invalid.   You are expressing and oponion and it is not a reflection of fact.  


I'm talking about the survey your conducting inside a PS4 thread.

Your title "PS4 Destiny Players Outnumber Xbox One Players By 63% to 24%" will attract PS4 viewers.

Hence why your poll is 8:1.2 ratio of Ps4 to Xbox One.

This is not a PS4 Thread it is a Gaming Discussion Thread.  Are you insisting that Xbox One gamers (as plentiful as they are) will not read an thread because the title insinuates that the PS4 will crush the Xbox One in Destiny sales?  And they will avoid the thread in their multitudes and severly skew the results of the poll?

Destiny ps4 will be on top, that will be impressive considering its not exclusive to ps4

I don't think ps4 destiny will outsell it at all


Really? Destiny on PS4 will do atleast 4-5 million total this year, and for MCC to reach that number it'll probably need a 50% attach rate (that's lowballing it as it requires the XBO to sell 5 million during the rest of the year.)

 I actually remember when they used to show all platforms on commercials.  It sounds one sided but Microsoft is to blame for that change.  They even had Final Fnatasy 13  Xbox 360 specific ads... which is kinda understandable but thats another discussion.

yes.... Exactly. I think that PS4 for destiny ratio will still be amazing something similar than what they did with watch dog.... which is roughly 2.5:1.

I'm just saying your poll is invalid.

I respectfully disagree.

Sony bought exclusive rights to advertising Destiny. Microsoft have a ban on advertising.

With the bundle sales and install base gap it should be 3 to 1 or more. 


so if xbo one will sell 2m units = 40% attachrate (~titanfall numbers)

ps4 have to do 6m+ units = 60% attachrate

 

thats completly bs

something like that will never happen.

 

You don't have the basic understanding of math to complete this calculation.

If the Xbox sell 2 million, that means that the total sold will be 8.33 million. 

That means that the PS4 will sell 5.3 million not 6 million+. Which is less than 50% attach rate. Still unlikly but far from total BS.


think before u post, plz

 

xb1 installbase = 5m

ps4 install base = 10m

 

thats the attachrate. not ur wired math :D

PS4 is going to outsell the Xbox One just like it always does.  The PS4 bundle is outselling all Xbox bundles....by a huge margin.

This isn't just about existing userbase but future userbase.  WW basically everyone in Europe (outside of the UK) and Japan will be getting it on PS4.  I still think it'll be between 2:1 and 3:1 WW.

If sales trends from the last few big FPS continues, it will be heavily in PS4's favor. Look at COD Ghost. It had Xbox exclusive advertising per usual.
360=8.94
PS3=8.25
PS4=2.51
XB1=1.97
360's wide gap in sales for the series has been heavily diminishing with each title. And when it comes to next gen it was still outsold. Battlefield 4 sales echo same sentiments. Destiny is heavily PS advertised with tons of exclusive content for the system for at least a year. That is going to push in PS4's favor by a large amount.
