First of all, that comment wasn't directed to any of you other than chas. I am not responding to his post but the tone of his or her post, so mind ya business.
Secondly chas, I merely pointing out that you yourself are not really explaining anything. You did prove one thing. That the guy was exaggerating. You did not prove that he was wrong.
Because he was never talking about first party games. You BOTH mentioned the word HD, and he proved, through your own actions, that 3rd parties sell better on "non-nintendo" consoles. :P |
Quick summary:
1) Third party games sell better on non-Nintendo consoles.
2) Most third party games on HD consoles are hardcore games.
3) Most third parties are posting losses.
4) Hardcore games can't sustain themselves on the HD consoles.
5) Sony's and Microsoft's consoles are possibly destroying hardcore gaming (or third parties are destroying it due to their stupid decisions).
6) The original post of this thread is spot on.
Is that your point?

I'm not 100% on the first one.
And I'm certain that they don't make as much money therefore confirming 4 and 5 and 6.
I agree with 2, and I already posted my curiosity as to why this is, since games like katamari and alien hominid did very well on ps2.
The only one I really can't say is true or false is 3. I just don't know the figures and or why they are posting losses. It's easy to say that it is because the games don't sell, and harder to say that fixed costs have risen or something like that.
