Nothing personal but those numbers seem awfully low to me. I can't believe with sales like that they would even bother founding this game anymore.

Those numbers have to be off. When you sell a game for 40 dollar you guys are thinking wrong. Your think UBI gets all that money. Your wrong. You have the cost of making the boxes, DVDS, manuals, advetisments! Then you have the shops like Gamestop or wallmart. They don't sell a game for 40 dollars and give that money to UBI. They take a share of that money too.

So if you figure in 80K sold, and actual take in money of maybe 20 ( I read an acticle few years ago the estimate was more like 12-14 dollars for a 40 dollar game after all expenses of making the game, not including Develpment) Dollars if your lucky. Those sale numbers look like loses to me, and no way they would continue the franchise after SHIII with numbers like those.

Sorry.
