MadWorld would have definitely sold better on the 360 or PS3, because on either system there isn't much of a choice when it comes to bloody action games. Owners of the HD consoles are starved for that kind of game, so they would even buy a short low budget title like MadWorld in huge numbers, simply due to the lack of alternatives on their machines.


I'll have 2 disagree with that.They have Ninja Gaiden 2(and 2 sigma),Devil May Cry and stuff like Heavenly Sword.Gears is also gory though its a shooter,not a hacker.But let's face it,it might have sold less on HD consoles.Nintendo gamers are usually more willing to try new stuff than HD gamers.Not every HD gamer is a core gamer.Many of them are 'casuals' by my book.My definition of casual isn't girly or babish,because some babish games are hardcore,my definition of casual is the typical stereotype boy in my country.They don't LOVE games like I do.They play Soccer(for 90% of their game time),GTA,driving games,DMC & GOW and war games.

Then a few dat like games a bit more than the average guys will add a few very AVERAGE adventure/action  games to their library because the boxart looks 'mature'.They miss out on all babish hardcore games.They even miss out on RPGs completely and games like Zelda.Now,with this being MY definition of casual,many casual HD gamers would never give madworld a chance.Okami and Deadly Creatures are also examples of how niche or unusual games sell.The fact that Okami sold way better on wii shows dat nintendo gamers are generally more open minded.The fact that Windwaker sold well means that using a very popular name for a new game helps.If Deadly Creatures was called Resident Evil:Deadly Creatures or some other popular name,it would have sold more.

So there.My opinion.Besides,I don't have a single HD-playing friend dat liked Madworld after I described it & showed em pics.They didn't even WANT to see the vids!
