Not necessarily, but i can see what you mean. 4. Right... MS payed for Master Chief to become as popular as he is... if SONY put as much money into KZ2 as MS did with Halo, in a couple of years we would be seeing Helghast as popular as anything else on the PS. |
M$ has something special with the Master Chief and I believe H3 would have sold 5million copies with absolutely no advertising whatsoever (word of mouth or whatever you want to call it). But I guess you can say they "bought" his popularity if that makes you feel better.
Sony has spent a lot of money on KZ2 advertising and while it wasn't as much as what was spent on H3 it was still a very large #. I don't think KZ2 would have been even close in popularity to H3 even if they had the same kind of add campaign as H3. It just doesn't have the fanbase that Halo does.
Sorry I helped make this thread get derailed, im done with this mess. :D
