Yeah, I know I'm being optimistic with mad world. I openly admit that I have my fingers crossed. Mentally I'm thinking the same thing everyone else is, but I also mentally know that just isn't good enough to make developers take note. So really it's more like I hope it will do a million, I expect a bit more than half that.
And I'm only grouping mad world with action beat 'em style games that are actually successful. Ones that had quality and a budget, and buzz, and succeeded. There are those like God Hand and NMH that don't succeed. But pointing to those isn't going to convince publishers to spend money on another high interest title, instead they will point right along with you and then send out Mysims Party.
You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.
