| bigjon said: Ok, here is the problem with your selling on Nostalgia alone argument... this game is nothing like the first 2. Also the first 2 were on a very good platformer console.... Partly thanks to the Banjos of course. Also I heard someone say that the reason that everything looks dumb is that is the way the series has always looked... Well number one the first 2 were on the N64, and games that tried to look real on 1st gen 3d console looked really bad... the only reason they sold back then was because nobody knew any better. That is the reason I believe that the 5th gen ages worse than any other gen (with exception of a few... like Mario 64... or Ogre Battle 64). Also part of the reason the original Banjo had steller sales is because most N64 owners had beaten Mario 64 are were hungry for a solid platformer... Banjo fit that mold. I really have a hard time seeing the 360 supporting kiddy style platform games... I know a couple people stated they were 23 and liked it.. well Number a 23 year old in my mind does not fall under a testostone charged teenager.... I was referring more to the Haloboy types. All that to say I think the game wont sell to the mainstream 360 owner, maybe to the 360 fanboy that tries really hard and tells themself they like it. However due to the advertising and userbase size in general I think 1 million is very attainable. My personal opinion is the game look really stupid. The only experiance I had with the previous one were I rented Banjo-Tooie and beat about 60% of it in the 5 days I had it. I like it. But it is not the change scaring me.... I just flat out don't like that way it looks. There are people who hated the way SMG looked with all of the globes and such... they were wrong. I could be, but I really think it looks like a boring dumb game. |
How can someone's opinion about the way a game looks, be wrong? (I can no longer take anything you say as serious.)
You say the game looks dumb and boring, I do not agree with you, but I also am not going to say you are wrong. One man's trash is another man's treasure. This trash looks like treasure to me.
