To add to what ddouble posted:
[h1]FAR CRY 3 HAS SOLD 'AROUND 10 MILLION COPIES'[/h1]
The previous entry ushers in a sequel with strong sales.

BY MIKE MAHARDYUbisoft revived the Far Cry franchise with its third numbered entry in 2012, and has maintained momentum since.The company has sold "around 10 million copies" of Far Cry 3, Ubisoft said during an earnings call today. The open-world shooter, set on a jungle island inhabited by bandits and native tribes alike, released during the same holiday season as Halo 4 and Assassin's Creed III. It reimagined the formula of its numbered predecessor, and brought the series back into the limelight–– in three weeks, Far Cry 4 marks the franchise's first foray onto the new generation of consoles.

During the same earnings call today, Ubisoft said it expects the sequel to sell 6 million copies in its first year. The company reported higher-than-expected sales during the first half of its fiscal year, citing Watch Dogs as the major driving force for the increased revenue –- the open-world game sold-in 9 million copies; actual consumer sales weren't mentioned.

With Assassin's Creed Unity also around the corner, Ubisoft said it expects to have a very profitable third quarter as well.

Quick Question.

My PSN membership ends September 2015.. If I get another good deal on a year membership, is it possible to stack onto my account or hold onto it until September 2015 or do they expire?

Ubisoft H1 Results (Watchdogs - 9 Million Sold)
 

Ubisoft has released its financial report for the first-half of its FY15, with the firm noting a 65% increase in sales.


Sales for the first half of 2014-15 came to €484.2 million, up 65.1% compared with the €293.3 million year-over-year.

During Q2 of FY15, the firm reported €124.1 million in sales, a 42.9% decline, versus €217.7 million for the same period the prior year.

The press release highlighted 9 million sold-in units for Watch Dogs, which means shipped to stores, basically.

Ubisoft also highlighted digital sales growth of 90.4% with €134.7 million in revenue for the sector. Digital sales made up 27.8% of total sales for the period.

The firm’s back catalog remained stable at €113.7 million, thanks to the performance of Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, South Park: The Stick of Truth, Far Cry 3 and Rayman Legends.

A call to investors will take place soon, and if anything interesting comes out of it, we’ll let you know.

The marketing partnership for Watchdogs was a good deal. Playstation making up 41% of Ubisofts sales with the PS4 leading the next gen battle by a margin.

Haha at TSOT being a highlight, that's one of the raunchiest games I've played.

I was against watch doges, but I really like the game mechanics. The driving was bearable, so IDK why that feature was harped on so much.

The story was a borefest and the hacking was just game filler mini-games.

If they make watch doges 2, I'll check it out. But they'll need to make the game fun like farcry.

Instead of a super serious boring storyline.

 Q: If I purchase more time, or get any voucher codes for additional time on my PS Plus subscription, will it stack on top of my existing time remaining?
A: Yes. You can purchase, or 'stack', more time to your Plus membership at any time. There ARE voucher codes we use for promotional purposes that do NOT stack, but these are fairly rare and are used only at certain on-location events.

Ubisoft Reckons You Wouldn't Want to Play an Assassin's Creed Game Set in Feudal Japan

http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2014...y_an_assassins_creed_game_set_in_feudal_japan

Speaking to Total Xbox, Assassin's Creed III creative director Alex Hutchinson remarked that a feudal Japanese setting is "a theme that's been well-mined in videogames", hinting that it may end up feeling too familiar to players.

"Feudal Japan would work as an Assassin's game, for sure, but I feel like it would start to look like 'oh, have I played this?' You know what I mean - 'oh, I've been a ninja before, I've been a samurai before',"

He can't be serious. Every AC game since the second one feels like I've played it before. An AC game set in feudal Japan would make me start playing the franchise again. Ever since Tenchu I've been longing for a ninja game that used actual stealth mechanics. Ninja Gaiden was good, but I'm over these blockbuster, Hollywood movie beat-em-up ninja games

That iYen post reminded why I did a double take and laughed when he posted in the XB1 thread that he gives unbiased opinions on both consoles and their pros/cons

Me and my cousins loved that game

I'm gonna have to agree with Boost, that pic is disgusting, whoever did that ps needs some practice, layers are bad, blurry pics, no depth perception.  

The same pic with the Vita games though.

$ony vs m$

 

You would make the same statement about X1 not having any games out too then, right?

Yes, I would. xb1 has way less to offer than the ps4 at this point and seemingly in the future.

$399 is the #1 system seller.

iyen are you getting either of the systems?  

Here's a post from 4 days ago.

I almost impulse bought a ps4 from Walmart.
Then I realized that I'd barely play since the launch games list is very lackluster.
Cod ghosts is the only game I think that I'm interested in.

This next gen hype is sort of getting to me.

Can't help but notice a lot of xbone praising/sony bashing from you in multiple threads.

Enjoy your mp3 playback and "4k gaming upscaling" my dude...you got it. 

How am I $ony bashing or xb1 praising? People claimed the reverse about me when I posted in the xb1 thread. They claimed that I was a $ony fanboy. 

You're making a lot of assumpitions that aren't true.

If you would like an inferior gaming experience get the xb1. 

You get achievements for watching ads.

That destination would make we want to cop it, since that area is so different to the series' norm. 

Rather than waiting for price drops.

My point is that both threads in the past have made baseless assumptions about my console "affiliation."

As I've stated in the past, I almost impulse bought a ps4 last nov.

Which console I prefer doesn't matter right now.

I find it silly that xb1 bashing posts can be posted with few people batting an eye, but anything remotely positive about xb1 then people want to say something.

How many times has the OP put some type of xb1 bashing quip in the thread title?

Yes, memphis pretty much did the same thing with xb1 title, BUT THAT DUDE TYPES LIKE THIS FOR NO REASON.

 

[swendro]

At least boost doesn't **** up the other thread with that stuff though. He post strictly in here.

And why do you feel the need to counter it with xbone stuff in here anyway?

Lots of times, I post in both threads at the same time with the same post.

I stated that I tried to find a ps4 version of that pic to post.
