this is the kind of topic that is hard to answer unless the game was on the other console to proove it would sell better.
Alot of people say Mad World would of sold better on PS360?
but in reality look at the game:
- 6 hours long.
- black and white.
- absolute gore kills (alot of people don't like over the top stuff like that).
- not so great story with a slow start.
I know alot of gamers who like to get alot of value in the games they purchase, alot have said that madworld is purely not long enough to justify a full price tag.
So to summaries just because a game bombs on one system doesn't mean that it is a bad thing and it owuld of done better on another. You have to look at all the factors that caused it to bomb.
But then again, in reality alot of nichie games that are great never sell well, eg okami on ps2 and wii (with their combined consoles owned, you would think alot more on both platforms).
Most the gamers out there are into generic games or established franchises cause they want to be the cool kid.
Sure alot of people on here can appreciate the better games that bomb, but we are only a minority of the market. Most the market doesn't read sites liek this, they are just what is hot or not at the time people.
