Having a ton of exclusives every year with therefore thin spread marketing per game will lead to sales of each game not giving a proper return on investment. Without proper awareness, blockbusters will be rare and therefore will fade in the memories of the general gaming public within a year. Thats why MS releases a few exclusives and markets the crap out of them, while releasing new games on lower-risk avenues like XBLA where it doesnt really matter if they flop or not. |
and thats good for gamers, how?
why does it matter at all how well the games are selling, if they are good.
are you more statisfied as a gamer to now that, sure you only had 1 or 2 games this year, but at least the company that published them is making alot of money. i think most people just care if there are a lot of good games. (which is why i bought the ps3 because there are a lot of games, with a lot of quality, i didnt buy a PS3 because i was hoping sony would make billions of dollars. and really unless you own stock in the company, why should you care.
how does that benefit the gamer? i think games benefit the gamer, dont you?
