Doubt Ubisoft will make it PS3 exclusive, 360 is their choice of money making console.

 

Ubisoft repoerted that they made bigger profits on the PS3...

Wow....I sound like guy with B.E.L.I.E.V.E in their sig

Please provide proof of this, because as far as I know they only released revenue numbers.

 

This is from the SEGA of America Site

UbiSoft's 2008 fiscal year just came to a close on March 31, and the multi-national developer released their preliminary stock holder report. Surprisingly, the PS3 was the top sales generator of the 3 home consoles for UbiSoft at 20%. The XBox 360 and Wii followed closely behind, however, at 19% and 18% respectively. Year-on-year, the PS3 was stagnant, remaining at the aforementioned 20%, while the XBox 360 fell 7% and the Wii rose 7% from the 2007 fiscal year.

UbiSoft released several titles for the platform in the 2008 fiscal year, sharing many releases with the XBox 360, including Prince of Persia, Far Cry 2, Tom Clancy's HAWX and EndWar. UbiSoft did publish one exclusive for each platform, Haze and Naruto: Broken Bond, for the the PS3 and XBox 360 respectively. During the 2009 fiscal year, UbiSoft is banking on several big name franchise sequels, namely Ghost Recon 4 and Assassin's Creed 2. The full report is due out May 27.

Sales isn't equal to profit. Besides, the difference between PS3 and Xbox 360 is almost neglectable and most likely caused by the few exclusive titles.

^ huh? I don't know what you're saying, but all developers and they're mom have said ps3 is more difficult to develop for. More difficult development = more development costs.

We can't forget that TV commercials for the original game only had the PS3 logo.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I got that part...I just didn't know what the "other than that Sales is the only way to get and/or equal profits" meant.

Anyways thought, back to OP. Who actually thinks AC2 is going to go exclusive. I've seen exclusive to mutli on big titles, never the other way around during the middle of a generation.

I hated the first game. Could care less which console it ends up on.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
