It's called a forum. We can talk about all sorts of things.
Ghosts was hated and so was Advanced Warfare to a lesser degree. They arch are treated as the gods of COD

Ja, and that PS4 list is missing Ys VIII, Star Ocean 5, Rime, Wild, The Tomorrow Children etc. PS4 has no games is one of the biggest logical fallacies this generation.

Awesome site to shut down these lame arguments.
No my point is I wish people would quite bickering over hardware companies and just discuss games themselves and play games. Isn't that why we enjoy this hobby anyways? To play games?
Again I'm living in Fantasy Land, for some reason people love attaching themselves to companies (Ford vs Chevy, Sony vs MS, etc). I just personally don't see the point myself, but to be fair I use to be that way. I was a major Nintendo fanboy for years and just stopped to focus on gaming itself. I fully admit I prefer playing on one piece of hardware over another due to RL friends mainly being on it, but I just don't feel the need to bicker over who has the most games, etc.

I'm not sure why you think so less of other people as to assume that someone isn't capable of doing multiple things. We can discuss games, hardware companies, sales data etc etc.
All while fully enjoying gaming.
Then take your own advice. Ignore it.
For someone who was having a listwar with at least one other poster earlier in this thread, you seem very indignant about this.

If Sony don't have anything, I could send them a pair of socks. I always get too many for the holidays, I don't mind donating to someone who has nothing.

I know some herer don't like it, but I really appreciate how the power has shifted from full title exclusivity to just marketing tie-in deals. ps and xb both get the game, but whoever lands the deal still gets a boost and here on the board we can all enjoy the drama. It's like having your cake and eating it too.

Titanfall, SFV and Dead Rising 3 were/are exclusive with the next Tomb Raider being timed.
That's pretty big for 2 years imo.

Even if Sony has COD marketting does it REALLY matter all that much?
Call of Duty is pretty much linked to Xbox brand. I'm sure MS knows this and is probably not worried about losing much (if anything) to Sony.
I felt the same way about AC:Unity going to MS.

Which is why I stopped responding after that because I realized I was getting sucked into the crap again. Also like the poster above you said I should have just taken my own advice and ignored it. My fault for even posting anything about it.
I like having debates about sales numbers, etc. just not overall hardware fanboyism. I'll stop posting about it and let you all get back to your discussions =)
I think PC has or will be getting all those (not 100% about tomb raider though), too, so they're not that exclusive. If you're console-only though yeah there are some meaningful 3rd party exclusives.

Yet it sells more worlwide on ps4, and are close in the US where the hardware gap is close.
It's more about a perspective shift than anything. Taking Call of Duty away from Xbox would make a huge statement. It's telling the world, "Hey, we are the dominant platform in the US as well as the rest of the world. All your friends are getting PS4s. Do you really want to be left behind?"
Taking a lot of Microsoft's strongholds would do damage to their brand.
It really depends, I mean it can make a difference for casual gamers for sure, but they will mainly get the system their friends have CoD on.
Though if Sony does get the marketing for BLOPS 3, they need to do a system bundle like MS did with Assassin's IMO, now that would make a difference.

I think it really depends on how hard the marketing push is. If Sony has the deal, they should be pushing hard to convert more 360 owners to the PS4. That's the only way the deal really becomes a big factor in my eyes. Merely having it as a marketing deal where you associate CoD with Playstation doesn't seem quite as big in the same month as Battlefront is launching.

Seems pretty light to me. titanfall and dr3 are not really heavy hitters. sfv is more of a second party arrangement and tomb raider is temporary. Altho you may be right, and it hasn't really changed that much. Could simply be my perception.

I'm sick of waiting 30 days for DLC, so I hope it is true.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Wasn't AW on 360 the top seller on all platforms?
If anything it gives Sony a bit of leverage. They could easily bundle the game with the ps4 similar to what MS did

I know for sure that it sold the most on release on 360. So there's clearly a large CoD base on 360 and I think a marketing deal that doesn't try to get more 360 owners to transition to PS4 is a wasted one.
Who the hell is TimDog and what GAF did he take down?fucking lol
Also exclusive marketing for Battlefront and CoD is pretty much all Sony needs but we'll also get the Uncharted Collection and Ratchet Reimaginning. Also if No Man's Sky is ready for this year Sony will push that a ton.
But really all it would take to obliterate the competition is a Battlefront Bundle for $299 (will probably end up being $349 at the lowest).

That probably is true, but I think they are planning one this fall.

One of my greatest sources of inspiration.
Agreed. I think they'll do one with the expectation that MS is going to have a price drop of their own. It's not necessary, but you can't let your competitor get too low on price without it reflecting poorly on you. I expect them to go whole hog and drop it to $299, much like in the PS2 days.

They need to get it low for the Morpheus bundle too...
299 for vanilla 1 game bundle, $499 for Morpheus Bundle with Morpheus, camera, Move controller, VR game.

Source? I know for a fact that CoD sold significantly more on 360 vs PS3.
I also seem to remember from NPDs that CoD has sold more on X1.

To MS, not really.
To Sony, probably does a bit. Like what Boke said, it gives them some amount of leverage.

NPD is US only, Ps4 has a massive world wide install base lead, it obviously sold more on PS4 overall worldwide.

Obviously? Give me a source. I want to see something that confirms that CoD on PS4 outsold CoD X1 worldwide. Because I simply do not believe that is what happened since almost all CoD sales come from the US/UK regions, which are Xbox strongest regions.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought in the NPD thread the gap in the US was 700K copies, I don't see how ps4 does not easily make up that outside the US with the install base being so much bigger.
