Hmmm, PS VITA has 5% of Most Wanted market share while PC got only 2%. Quite surprising knowing install bases of these two platforms.

Sanquine904603d ago

A reason for developers to invest in vita.

beerkeg4603d ago (Edited 4603d ago )

It's worth noting that they don't include digital sales, which is where most pc sales are made.

EDIT:@Sanquine90

Yes, that's true. But the pc digital market is much larger than the Vita market. You can look on Steam for an idea of how much larger that market is if you want.

Sanquine904603d ago

Vita has also digital sales ;) xD

Sanquine904603d ago

Agree with you on that .

is vita the best core handheld device on the market?

They already did that in 2017 with origins. I don’t think a reboot is on the cards when Ubisoft is about to go down under lol

I hope the splinter cell remake sees the light of day before the company closes

Inverno103d ago

I doubt they'll be closing, but they are primed to be eaten up by a bigger comp. Also 2017 was nearly a decade ago, it could use another reboot or rather it should just be retired.

RaidenBlack102d ago

Origins was the reboot.
But that also alienated the original AC lovers, abit. Not everybody adores the perma-change of the IP to be vast RPGs.
What I instead propose is, alternate between Valhalla/Shadows type AC RPGs and Mirage/ACII like non-RPG releases.

PrecursorOrb103d ago

It’d be nice if they made parkour feel new

monkey602103d ago

Put the series to bed, It's tired! Revisit your stagnant properties.

What do you do when you've already milked everything dry

Noskypeno102d ago

What is old might feel new again. A new splinter cell with semi open levels but still having a linear structure (not just one giant open world) that have multiple paths to complete the objective but still have stealth be the main priority would feel fresh, especially with modern graphics and military gadgets .

FinalFantasyFanatic103d ago

I agree, from anecdotal evidence, all franchises eventually stagnate, it might be a good time to start something new.

PRIMORDUS103d ago

"it might be time for a reboot." No it might be time to put this shit to rest for a few yrs. A good 4-5 then come back.

Profchaos103d ago

Total franchise reboot. This ac game is basically the hail Mary to keep Ubisoft alive if this fails the share price will be so low they will be forced to sell and likely absorbed into another org as the Ubisoft name carries almost no weight.

Don't get me wrong they will end up selling after ac regardless but it will be the difference of getting the deal they want vs the deal they don't

Tell me how that's going to be significantly different than colonial America. AC is about showcasing different cultures throughout history. They already did Native Americans in AC3, so then just cowboys, outlaws, ranchers, etc? Kinda feel like there's already a game out there that does that really freaking well. Hmmm, maybe the one in the thumbnail?
