Hey, don't you generalize me with the rest of the 360 owners. I pre-ordered this(but still had to go out and buy it because the guy off ebay who I preordered it from didn't get his copies promptly).

So yeah, I basically bought this day 1, and I'm not to be blamed, or generalized within a larger group for idiots not buying the best 360 game released so far this year.

You've got a ton of PS3 n00bs who didn't pick up Disgaea as well, but you don't see me flaming the whole crew.

As always, smart people know which games to buy, and everybody else buys Mercenaries 2. That's always been the way of things, and ignorance isn't gonna end just because a good game was released. Especially if you don't market said game to the general hardly-core audience who not only didn't know it existed, but couldn't find it on store shelves if they did.

So, how do you like them apples?

I didn't mean all 360 owners, just the ones that picked up LO but didn't pick up ToV.

 

 

/sigh, true. I'm sickened by them a little. However, I will say that it might not have been totally their fault. At least some of them aren't constantly on the internet knowing all game releases and qualities. So, I'm sure more than a few of them never even heard about Vesperia. These are also the types of folks who read gaming magazines as their news sources(n00bs), and the mags weren't nearly as praising about ToV as the internet was.

However, anyone who did buy LO, knew about the game, and who know and are able to read reviews from Gamespot, IGN, and users in general, have no excuse, except the economy, and even in that case, you still fail in my eyes.

It's like, man, Disgaea 3 is so great, lol, but look at all the PS3 fanboys on this very site who didn't even give it a look. We've got people here desperate for games on the PS3, buying Haze and Lair, and they won't buy freakin' Disgaea 3!? WTF man. This makes me nausiated.

I'm not saying that the sales for ToV were terrible, especially considering the advertising and supply, but just one example of someone buying Infinite Undiscovery or Merc 2, and having never heard of Disgaea 3 or ToV, is a little sickening to me. I'm not trying to hate on either of those games....but comeon. Anyone whose played ToV or D3 know, lol. Those other people made a baaad choice and should wise up.
