For now, this doesn't mean much. Like reggie waid, lets have another look in a year.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

Metacritic scores means nothing if your games keep flopping on a commercial basis.

Would you rather a system full of crappy games that sell well to the masses?

Those so called "crappy" games are realized in high quality according to the masses so yes.  

Great, you can enjoy Just Dance 4 and Angry Birds Star Wars, I'd rather play decent games regardless of their sales.

Your forgetting games like GTA V and COD there buddy. While you keep playing "quantity" games, I'll be playing "quality" games.

Hmmm, I'm pretty sure that's my argument that you suddenly switched to...

There's nothing wrong with Just Dance 4!

Unless it has Satfey Dance, I'm not playing.

Yet GTA V and COD sells alot so what's your point ? I guess you consider them as trash because their "crappy games that sell to the masses".

I never said that. A good game can sell well or sell poorly for many reasons. I'd play it regardless of how it sells. Either way.

I won't avoid a game just because it appeals to the masses, but at the same time I won't buy a game because of it.

If it's sooo good then why does the rest of the market think differently ? To buy a game must mean that it's probably a good game because you don't spend your money on trash games. Therefore it speaks volumes about a games quality by the masses. SALES = QUALITY

Nope. SALES = POPULARITY.

Popularity can derive from quality, but also for less savoury reasons.

So why would people be buying themselves a bad game then ?

CoD falls under that. You lost the War even before it began.

 

The masses are stupid.
