    Who knows... knowing Ubisoft, I think that FC4 will be delayed because GTAV is gonna sell more
    Hopefully I'm wrong.

    Unfortunately, you're probably accurate with that view.
    Ubisoft had all the time in the world to let the community in on some information.

    I wouldn't even put GTAV and FC4 on the same level.

    I've got this bad feeling things aren't going to end well...again.
    After the last clusterf*ck with FC3, it looks like we may be in for some more.

    As you said in your post, I also hope I'm wrong.

    Things are ALWAYS going bad in one way or another with Ubi, because they suck at everything from production, to marketing, to their still craptastic Uplay. The only thing they really excel at is coming up with good game ideas. Too bad they're horrible at implementing and supporting them.

    Lately they've gone to the extremes of sabotaging their PC titles to keep console sales high, and even accusing Monolith of stealing assets in Making Shadow of Mordor, which is built entirely on their in house engine that's been in continuous production for decades. Ubi recruited Monolith to help on AC 1&2 animations because they were too inept to do it themselves. That doesn't make them thieves. If anything it just makes them more skilled.

    Ubi needs to stop making up lies and excuses and stop blaming people. They only have themselves to blame. If they were smart they'd see the real solution is not to promise simultaneous releases, but just the opposite. Doing like Rockstar does allows you to make your console profits, then have enough time and money to make a quality PC version without sabotage and lack of polish. Ubi are friggin clueless.

    Well I played through the SP of GTA5 and also did the same with TLOU both on PS3 and although I will pick the Remastered versions of Both Games up on PS4 at some point I would rather purchase something new so for me I will be looking at DriveClub and FC4 in November.

    I'm looking forward to both, but GTA V is gonna have to wait to be played til I've played my eyes out in FC4
    I've already played GTA V but the changes made are enough for a re-purchase considering how good the game itself was.
    I think Far Cry 4 will sell better than GTA V if you consider that FC4 is a new game that's coming to 5 platforms and GTA V is a remake coming to 2 platforms

    GTA v wont affect xbox 360, ps3 or pc fc4 sales, but it will have an affect on ps4 and xbox one fc4 sales, and there's no getting away from that fact. if you take a gamer with only £40 to buy one game, he can only pick one on the 18th. think of it like this, most gamers will be spent out with cod aw, destiny, halo collection and what ever else comes out before the 18th, and christmas is coming, and thats an endless money pit. it's gonna be a battle on ps4 and xbox one on the 18th. lets hope fc4 wins .

    I doubt that gta5 will be such a success again, ofcourse they will sell some coz rockstar is good at creating the hype. But read many negative comments after the release on last gen consoles. Its not TLoU, where most of the reactions were positive. So how many will buy it again for just some better lighting and textures? Maybe a poll on this topic would have been nice.

    But anyways, november will be a bloodbath for some i guess, lots of good games coming.
