Fair enough.  Justify it then.

Which games on the Xbox 360 should supposedly have gotten this treatment from me and didn't?

Well, I personally don't like to hate on ANY game's sales, but there were games that people thought would perform one way and did not, such as:

Star Ocean: The Last Hope

The Conduit

Ninja Blade

and the like.....

Now, I'm not trying to discredit any of these game's merits but pointing out that in such cases, you weren't present. In KZ2, inFAMOUS, LBP's cases, you were VERY present, and I'm just saying to be fair about it.

I personally detest sales debates, they never end well, and people lose sight of the purpose of the game, to be FUN. Also, I'm not saying that I don't like that VG tracks sales, I just think people get too into them and are clouded from the bigger picture.

I never paid much attention to Ninja Blade.

But I actually was there for the sales debate on both the other games.  The Conduit I feel underperformed, but that was in line with my expectations.

Star Ocean is another matter.  The game did as well as most people expected, but to be honest I expected something of a surprise hit in the vein of LO or similar.  So I was largely disappointed.  Like inFamous I am sure the game made a profit, but for me that doesn't necessarily make a game a resounding success.
