Groucho said: PS3 games have proven to have some pretty serious legs. Look at the numbers for Heavenly Sword. Heck Haze and Lair actually haven't done that bad at this point, either.
I doubt Heavy Rain will cause QD to go under, although it is a niche genre, IMO. You could say the same thing about Alan Wake -- except of course that AW has been in development for a lot longer, as far as I know. |
Alan Wake, a third person shooter is niche?
Really? I mean, I can sort of understand you saying that because its psychological horror, but last time I checked how well those did, Bioshock, Resident Evil, Condemned 2(multiplat total) and Fear have done quite well as far as psycho horror goes.
So...Alan Wake is a RELLY bad example. Plus the thing has been hyped to hell, and hype is only rising. I would have used something like Too Human which somehow didnt bankrupt SK.
GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
