Halo 5 bombed too.

Is the nightmare coming to an end?
>>
Are these all measured on the first week of sales?
>>
>>316606635
I bought all main series AC games up to Unity, because, even though they fluctuate a lot in quality, I overall always enjoyed them. This was the first year I felt no hype at all and I didn't buy Syndicate. It's sad seeing the series I once loved in this state.

That said, this one was made by Toronto, I think, and they also made the DLC's, most of which were pretty shit overall. I'll still be keeping an eye on it in case there's another gem like AC4.

Black Flag is still the best AC out there. And only because is not another shit AC clone.

It didn't, though. That's objectively false.
>>

what the fuck
>>
>>316607914
It sold less than a million. For THE flagship series that was basically Microsoft's only hope of a comeback against the PS4, that's a huge fucking bomb.
>>
>>316606635
hopefully bethesda is next unless they actually improve upon the next version of their fallout or elder scrolls game.

even the cod series has seen a decline in sales.

The power of marketing.
>>316607914
If you count this as a bomb Halo also bombed. It had a similar level of drop compared to the previous entries, including 4.
>>
>>316608019

I played it and it's nowhere near as bad as you faggots make it out to be.
>>
>>316608134
>>316608025
it pushed console sales up over ps4's, also, i haven't seen numbers for under a million (i haven't seen any numbers period), but if it can put consoles in more peoples hands - it's a big deal. Its still a console pusher.
>>
>>316608209
Even PS2 was outsold by Xbox in US during Halo week. Halo used to be a big deal and now unit sales are down 70%
>>
>>316607914
it did. for consoles the first two weeks of sales are the most important. after that there is a huge drop off in numbers. even the last sc2 xpac was able to sell a million copies in 48 hours. and that's considered a ded game. it came out same day as fo4 as well.
>>
are those for only 2015?

because the first 3 AC's sold more than 10 millions copies each and that's only retail.
>>
>>316606635
Looking at the AC3 sales they really should've focused more on marketing it to people that actually play games. No one outside Tumblr gives a fuck that you have a trans character.
>>
>>316608025

Halo 5 also did better than 4, and sold the same as Reach in a smaller timeframe.

Bloodborne sold less than half what H5 did at launch and took months to get to 2 million so I don't know what that says about the measurement of success these days.

1. Halo 5 has been insanely profitable, those shitty REQ packs and a load of uncounted digital sales have been raking in money

2. Neogaf can't stand it, like some of them hate the fact the PS4's winning streak was broken, therefore they circulate bullshit in as much places as possible and try to make it out to be a blunder on the scale of the Nathan Drake Collection, or start making comparisons, or just generally downplay it as much as possible with everything they can.

It's more of a movie than any other game in the series.

It included the bundles. It did really appallingly bad and even flopped in Europe. Especially as Sony positioned it as both a console seller and a way to introduce the PS3 IP's to the people making the jump from 360/Wii to PS4.

With Uncharted 4 having tons of problems like tech spec and graphical downgrades on top of Sony hiding that a lot of staff has left Naughty Dog (Corrine Yu and most of the programming team were quietly fired at the end of last year on top of Amy Hennig and some creative staff leaving). Sony's probably shitting bricks since a UC4 flop would be the death knell for their 1st party.

They will be too busy laughing at the Sonyfriends who turned around and said "Timed exclusivity on COD Map pack DLC is good" since they are now free of it just like the Nintenfriends and Mustards. One of the new policies Spencer put in at MS was "No timed DLC deals" even when they could have had the Fallout 4 DLC as timed exclusives.

I mean, congrats on winning the generation Sonyfriends but selling your soul to do it was a bit much. How do the doritos taste?

then around the PS3 time, they were getting their dick kicked in by the 360 and Wii early on in the gen and you'd get alot of "sales dont matter, halo doesnt matter, we have Haze!" and shit like that, and this would persist and persist.

Now the PS4 has come out, and all you hear is about superior resolution figures, something that was barely EVER discussed with console games, and just hammering in sales sales sales, they'll always find some way to worm out of any failures and paint a better picture

Assasins Creed is just boring its an old washed up game and they should put us back in Rome and have us doing more out there shit with a crazy story like 1 and 2, thats what people enjoy. Not putting us on some fucking Pirate ship no one cares about.

Adolf Hitler (20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party, also known as the Nazi Party, serving as Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945.
By the 1930s, Hitler was under the influence of the Templar Order, obtaining an Apple of Eden from Templar industrialist Henry Ford, intending for him to use it to start World War II.[1] Alongside fellow Templar puppet Joseph Stalin, Hitler brought on the turmoil and fear necessary for Abstergo Industries to take control of the working population.[2]

On 30 April 1945, at the end of the war, Hitler executed his body double inside the Führerbunker and planned to meet Winston Churchill with the Apple of Eden at a rendezvous point. However, upon leaving the bunker, Hitler was killed by the Assassins.[3]

http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Assassins

The Assassin Order, also known as the Assassin Brotherhood, Liberalis Circulum (Circle of Liberals) during the time of the Roman Empire, or Hashshashin during the Middle Ages, was an organized order of assassins and sworn enemies of the Templars, against whom they fought a continuous, recondite war throughout the entirety of recorded human history. Whereas the Templars sought to save humanity from itself by controlling free will, the Assassin Order fought to ensure the survival of freedom, as it allowed for the progression of new ideas and the growth of individuality.

The Assassins, if not the Order itself, have existed since at least 456 BCE, throughout the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution and into the Modern era.

"With this [...] a simple carpenter turned water into wine."
―Al Mualim, on Jesus' use of an Apple of Eden, 1191.[src]

Jesus (7-2 BCE – 33 CE), also known as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, is one of the central figures of Christianity. He is viewed as the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament, believing him to be the son of God who was raised from the dead and ascended into Heaven.

His most prominent work was the performing of grand miracles, and sacrificing himself to cleanse the sins of all humanity. Christ's miracles were granted from the powers of the Shroud of Eden, one of the Pieces of Eden. The Templars took notice of his many followers, and eventually learned of the source of his powers.

After being betrayed to them by Judas Iscariot, Jesus was arrested, tortured and crucified by the Templars, who took the Shroud for themselves.[1] However, Jesus' disciples were able to recover the Shroud and briefly resurrect him.[2]

That was a load of bullshit anyway. They said 80% of the PS4 userbase have not played Uncharted.Do some maths(highest selling is 6.5 million total PS3 userbase is 80 million) and you can see more than 90% of the PS3 userbase have not played Uncharted either.

In otherwords the average PS4 owner is more likely to have played an Uncharted game than an average PS3 owner. The idea behind The Nathan Drake Collection selling to a new audience who never played it becomes clearly false or misguided..

http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Nikola_Tesla

"Rot in hell, Thomas."
―Tesla on Thomas Edison, before firing his particle beam weapon.[src]

Nikola Tesla (1856 – 1943) was a Serbian American inventor, and a mechanical and electrical engineer. He was one of the most important contributors to the birth of commercial electricity. Tesla planned to create a worldwide network that was able to transmit information and electricity to anywhere on the planet. The knowledge needed for this plan came from an Apple of Eden he had acquired.

Acquiring the Apple of Eden
In 1874, Tesla fled to Tomingaj, near the municipality of Gračac, in order to avoid being drafted into the army. While there, he spent much of his time exploring the wilderness and the surrounding mountains; it was here that he found an Apple of Eden.[1]

The Templars however, most prominently Thomas Edison – Tesla's former employer – opposed his ideas, as they would be a serious impediment to the Templar goals and Edison's own ideals. To this end, Edison demonstrated a series of experiments, such as the electrocution of a circus elephant that he released, as proof of Tesla's power being dangerous, causing public disapproval towards Tesla's invention. Along with his smear campaign, Edison also influenced his fellow Templar J.P. Morgan to cut funding for Tesla's famous Wardenclyffe Tower. In the following months, Tesla's Apple of Eden seemingly disappeared from his lab, along with some of his designs.[2]

Working with the Assassins
"Nikola,
We know what they have done to your lab, to your career. It may be too late to set things right, but you can help prevent something far worse. [...] We do not ask you to risk your life, just that, when the time comes, you use your electricity to destroy the object.
Regardless of your decision, know that we admire your work greatly and will bear you no ill will.
We respect your freedom above all else."
―A letter to Tesla from the Assassins.[src]

Zero of those games are coming to Xbone or Wii U. Only 7 are coming to PC.

The other 33 are full exclusives and that's not only a portion of the announced exclusives.

PS4 is PS2 2.0

Strange, I don't remember SSM guys ranting about gameplay "is something that is to be expected in games" like the RAD guys.

Best potential setting if they'd deviated from the AssCreed formula and the trailers made the combat look like it might be something completely different.

Nice source. They've stated that though they want to work on their own IPs, They would love to work on The Order some more if Sony went for it.

Why do all of Sony's big hitters always lack any sort of charm or finesse? Like that one exclusive there with the fucking cabbage patch kid face,

do they expect someone wearing a bowtie and smoking a pipe to walk into Gamestop and go "Hmm hmmm yes I would enjoy a gander in this experience"

Fuck me, the only people who just don't have a punchable face in their lineup is Nathan Drake and the Gravity Rush girl, everything just looks like Sony wanking themself off over absolutely nothing.

Remember during PGW when they started reading out names like "The Order 1886" and "Everybodys Gone to the Rapture" and the crowd was nervously cheering, it was fucking hilarious and awkward at the same time.

i remember that
only sony would have the audacity to read out the order 1886 as a success

its exactly the same as when mattrick-era MS constantly forced out kinect shit and refused to listen to the overwhelming negativity

im not surprised to see a revival in xbots on /v/ recently, the only fans of xbox around that time were just normies and morons.

Reminder that the PS4 has more bundles than actual exclusives this holiday season. Even if you include the PS4-PC only ones.

Only four people from the Crash team are still there. The studio just changed as soon as Rubin left because he sacrificed his position by attacking the Japanese execs over the PS3 hardware (And he was tipped as a potential new head of SCEA as Tretton was thinking of leaving at the time) and it became what we know as Naughty Dog now. And what Naughty Dog has now is really good Sony PR pushing it as some sort of miracle team around the time UC2 came out as part of a rebranding because Jak 3 and Uncharted were mainly 7/10 games and they needed to hype UC2 up as Sony's games during the generation were spectacular blunders like Lair and Haze.

No, I simply like the series' style of gameplay (as well as the story up until AC4. It's far from perfect, but I enjoyed it. Besides, I often get hyped over things that have barely any marketing.

Piss on sales, is the game any good? Was thinking of pirating it later this month.

Is it anything like a 3 -> 4 jump in quality?

Sales attract devs and thus games.
It's already over, just accept it.

This is exactly what Sonyggers fail to grasp

The glory days are long gone, and theyre trying to mask it desperately with nostalgia ads, all the 20th anniversary Playstation bullshit and marketing big AAA as if theyre exclusive.

Even one of their big marketing team members said that theyre relying on the power of nostalgia with things like SW: Battlefront and Playstations history
