Forums - Sales - 53% of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare sales were on Xbox (UK)

HollyGamer on 10 November 2014

My prediction is right on the spot, Call of Duty will perform better on Xbox platform this month,

I will wait for my other prediction about Xbox One will win NPD this month but with a very small margin with ps4 sales.

It is you MS spining my words

But to you underdand what I said.

- CoD: AW sales for Xbone was great.
- CoD: AW Xbone sales not ahead CoD: PS4 sales after exclusive bundle, marketing and promotions was pathetic.

You know this GFK chart is one of the few that combine bundle sales.

just like the destiny exclusive bundle and marketing did not work out, because the playstaion vs xbox ratio was 50:50?

Oh the hypocrisy 

Hypocrisy???, PS3 had no bundles. XBO did. That's why in ps3's case only userbase counts, but not with XBO because there was bundles and discounts.

This is the same as GTA V launch in US where PS3 version outsold X360 version despite userbase in US being 1'5x more favouring x360....

 Not being able to outsell PS4 version is not a disaster but it's proof of the power of PS4 in UK against XBO.


And why does that mean XBO automatically sells more COD than PS4? Everyone has these sudden expectations now that the numbers are out but none of these were said before release.


I'm not saying bundling automatically guarantees it will sell more, but we have other bundles with either X360 or PS3 and historically, the game bundled officially usually sold the most, even if the console itself was behind sales against the competition. That's why I used the GTA V example in USA.

Not surprising, CoD has always been stronger on Xbox, there's no reason for this to change this gen.

I'm interested on which version sold the most: 360 or One ?



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Care to explain... PS4 version was ahead in US unique and exclusive due bundles.

If PS4 could be ahead with exclusive bundle then it will be pathetic like.

Interesting people bringing up last gen sales.... 360 nearly doubled ps3 in the UK. Ps4 being the top platform shows a changing of the guard this gen. By next year expect even bigger slice of cod in the UK to be on playstation.

The PS4 had bundles too.

Sorry but nope... stop to spin this because the only official bundle was wiht Xbone... EXCLUSIVE.

PS4 + Game is not a bundle with deals... you pay the price of PS4 + the price of the game with some little discounts... this is not the bundle that drives sales.

Lol deals and discounts are now different words?

PS4 drives sales from being PS4 if you havent noticed the past year.

xbox one did really good considering the difference in user base, but then again the game was marketed by MS and had a X1 Bundle.

and has an imbedded audience of Xbox users moreso and has early DLC on MS platforms.  Honestly I'm astonished it sold more on PS4 than Xbox One

huh?

the cod bundle is more expensive than a PS4 with cod....

did you say it was pathetic or sad when the destiny bundle didnt work in the US?

Destiny? This topic is not about that. But if you need to know, i called the perfume ad pathetic in regards to that game.

I not 50/50 at all...... Activision has said ps4 is the biggest platform and the gap widens weekly. The gap wax pretty big this week in ps4 favour.
