| Dodece said: Vizunary what you are looking for is called a fan site. Where you are at is a website dedicated to discussing the console war. Perhaps if you cannot handle the cold hard truth then perhaps it is time to move on. You cannot reject this reality and substitute your own. This site is what it is. Now if you want to color your world happy then a fan site is the place for you. However this games sales are indicative of trends, the health of a particular console, and the health of the software on that console. Quite frankly it would be highly irregular not to discuss such a pivotal development. Your right some of these posters do not care about this game in and of itself, and will view it as merely a artifact. However that does not mean they have no right to analyze it with cold hard logic the way a archaeologist will handle a mummified corpse. There is no need to be particularly interested in the person it was, or develop any feelings of attachment. They are looking for answers not there to commune with the dead. There is no crime, and quite frankly its ludicrous to claim there is one. I suggest if you cannot handle that way of looking at gaming then its time for you to move on to a fan site. Your looking for something else then this site. Nothing wrong with that, but your feelings are just going to get hurt if you let yourself get attached to games that are going to receive postmortem examinations in front of you. Thats what happens on this site. |
i know exactly what this site is, thanks for the in depth explanation, nonetheless... so your telling me that johnlucas chiming in on how "MGS4 will not go to the PS3" or happysquirrel simply stopping by to say "i always said it would flop" are somehow constructive arguments in a sales discussion? many posters seem "giddy" at the sound of anything negative about the PS3, these are the people i was referring to and they know who they are. i feel that my reasoning for this incessant negativeness about the PS3 is exactly what i posted before. i never said this game was god's gift... i always said it would be visually impressive and fun, so it lived up to my expectations thus far. and sorry but i think it's only fair to use hollywood's generally excepted definition of a flop, a project that lost money... FF: the spirits within was a flop, HS is not quite a flop as of yet, they didn't even pull waterworld out of theaters the 1st weekend, they let it suck for awhile... btw, my feelings aren't hurt... i'm drinking =)
