I'm confused, how is a console based completely on motion controls not riskier than anything Sony has ever done?
Don't feel like quoting, but putting big money into either novel or old IP's isn't a 'risk', it's a cost of doing business.
If Sony doesn't talk trash, how will anyone continue to respect them? Some companies can let the results do the talking. Others rely on their mouths. |
From the looks and talk of Sony's games, I'd say their games do PLENTY of talking...
|
Now if only there were the sales to back that up...
You can say your games are the best all you want, but if nobody buys them (or another likely scenario, there aren't many people TO buy them), it doesn't matter.
|
Interesting, how'd you draw that ridiculous conclusion?
Also, I see you're one of those: "sales=quality" people. Not sure you're the right person to debate with....
|
No, not really, but you yourself said the games do the talking. What is their voice if not the people who buy them? One person can say they think X is the best game ever, and five others can say they hate it, and of course the reverse.
All talk does is get us nowhere. There has to be a way to qualitatively compare games, and reviews (see: opinions) are not a valid way of doing so.
So please, kindly take your preconcieved notions and throw them out before bashing someone else's thoughts.

Perceived quality does the talking, sales aren't everything you know. You'll learn one day that slaes =/= quality as judging from this post tells me you still believe it does. Why so defensive though? If you can't deal with a little subjectivity, you're on the wrong part of the site. You saying that "nobody buys Sony's games" IS ridiculous and inaccurate. Bashing this fallacy is rational there.
You think sales do the talikng, which if you want sequels, perhaps. But I stand by the assessment that quality does the talking, because plenty of quality games will never see Halo, Mario, or Gran Turismo-like sales.
I stand by my original assessment though, as of now, you aren't the right individual to discuss this with.

I gotta say, I can't find a single part where I said no one buys Sony's games. PS3 has what, 15+ million sellers? That's a lot of games. I'm not anti-PS3...
I will say this, you're right, sales aren't EVERYTHING. They're just the bottom line. Developers can go out of business if they pour too many resources into a failed game.
Why am I defensive? I can't exactly see that, but why are you so OFFensive? The beast fights its hardest just before the end of its life.
Quality is important, yes, but quality doesn't put food on the table unless people en masse can recognize the 'value' said quality can provide.
