Let's just say the money MS spent on exclusive marketing will be wasted money by a lot

It was a fair mistake... "?" almost tricked me too.

Its not wasted because they're selling Xboxes. That was the main purpose. Not to sell more AC Unity's.



Globally in the US for a short time maybe. Globally not a chance.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

NA? I think it will be close. WW? Little doubt Europe will help it easily sell better on PS4.

So many good games and the bad press will hit this one. I've not seen many good previews and expect to see a meta of around 65%. I've bought every single Ass Creed, but this year Shadow of Mordor showed me how it can be done. Not touching this with a barge pole and there must be many with similar feelings. So I expect it to be close between both consoles. But with some love and care for the PS4 version this could have sold twice as many as it probably will. The last PR statement where they basicly said they could release any old rubbish and people will buy it regardless means I am loathe to ever preorder an Ubisoft game ever again. Not sure the treat em mean, keep em keen thing works in a gaming world.



I hope the WW sales for PS4 Parity to be lower than Black Flag... that way Ubi can learn Parity is a bad decision for consumers.

But the gap is too big to Xbone version outsell the PS4 version WW.

Not one bit, they would be spending it on marleting either way.  

This way the x1 versions actually sale good, they dont want to be associated with sales less then half then on PS4.  



Not even close. It'll do waaaaay better on PS4. It'll probably be ~2-1 this time as well. It's mostly forum-goers that bother to care about a few pixels more or less.

When it sells more on PS4 it'll just let Ubi know they can take money from MS while getting money from PS owners. I don't think it'll be lower than last year with the much higher install base but that's just me.
