| heruamon said: L4D2 is about to overtake Uncharted 2 on the sales chart, and it's DEFINITELY overtaken it on the PC/360 sales numbers...so...maybe this is why Valve isn't bothering. When the most vaunted game on the PS3 can only manage these sales numbers, and an "expansion" like Halo ODST topped 4 million this week...what buisness sense if there to dedicate effort to develop for the PS3 from scratch? |
wow, what a great sense of busines you have. So now Uncharted 2 "only" selling over 2 million in 2 months is nothing compared to L4D2? The key with Business is opening up your line of products to more consumers, wider range of potential buyer. Which is why 85% of the games this gen are multiplat. If other 3rd parties went by your logic, that's like Activision saying, well we sold 8 million copies of MW2 on 360 and only 5 milion copies on PS3, we should not even bother with ps3 anymore.
Yes, L4D2 is selling great passing over 2 M thus far far on 360, but if it was on PS3, it might have sold a million or so on that system as well. By not being on PS3, there losing potential sales. The same reason now why Insominiac are thinking of going mulitplat.
