@ Vlad, so you just ignored all the data provided and repeated that the game sucked? Wow, go you. If it sucked that bad, it wouldn't have sold so well on the other systems... Even the PS3 version was buggy and it outsold the PC at retail by 3:1.

 

Console game standards are far lower than PC game standards. Otherwise we wouldn't be seeing games like Diablo II from 2000 making an appearence. If good games were coming out they'd sell. Obviously there are games good enough to still sell even after 8 years. Your data just proved that point, the quality of games has been decreasing sharply as more and more are "consolified." UT2004 is still the best multiplayer-shooter, HL2 still the best single-player, SC and WC3 the best strategy games, and Diablo II, NWN, BG2, KOTOR, and FO2 the best RPGs. Kinda sad that they haven't been toppe yet, huh?

"Console game standards are far lower than PC game standards."

Perhaps because there are so few of you... And the barriers to entry are far far higher.

"Obviously there are games good enough to still sell even after 8 years. Your data just proved that point, the quality of games has been decreasing sharply as more and more are "consolified"

Maybe the talent required to best these games make console games because the market there can support their vision better?

Considering you're the one setting the standard... it doesn't surprise me to see these games lauded as the "best". Ask any decent Nintendo person what the best platformer, the best racer and the best fighter in existance and you won't be surprised by the franchises.
