Couple of things, you wrote:
Don't be ridiculous. Why would you compare an FPS to a hack and slash? GT5 sales will obliterate those of Splinter Cell: Conviction, but that isn't really an intelligent comparison to make.
I comapred those to games, in order to reply to his equally unintelligent comparison of GoW3 and Crackdown 2. Read his comment, and you'll see that he made that comparison, and mine was intended as satire.
Splinter Cell is a popular series which has deteriorated over time. Even if Conviction improves, there will be those who have jumped ship. Not that it won't sell well- it will cross 2 million, has a shot at 3, but it can't stand up to a Rockstar North exclusive. It really can't. New IP or not.
I'm not so sure about that, but I guess we must agree to disagree. Conviction looks to be a retooling, if not a relaunch of the franchise, and after E3, it is highly anticipated.
I'm not sure who developed Bully, but it was one of my favorite games on the PS2, and it needed to be repackaged and rereleased several times in order to be profitable. As I've discussed previously, using examples like Infamous, the PS3 and to a lesser extent the Wii, has a tough time launching new IPs this generation. We shall see.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
