ClaudeLv250 said: I came in this thread to see two things: Why people weren't buying Bayonetta, and what people had to say about Madworld possibly outperforming it in America. Unfortunately no on addressed issue number 2 but I'm seeing that most of the anti-Bayonetta sentiments are spawning from ignorance.
I mean, God of War clone? Really? I think you need to recheck who made strides in this genre. |
It's doing worse then Madworld... holy crap.
I mean, i think it's plain to see which of the two games was supposed to be their "big" game.
The sales really are surprising to me... I hope it really isn't the "she's a girl!" thing and more of a "Platnium has a hard time conveying what in their game is serious and what isn't."

It's not doing worse in first week sales for either platform. I guess Madworld might have more legs, but I don't see that as being something I would bet on.

Huh. Wonder why Claude said that...
Yeah, i don't see it having more legs either. I mean it's a Wii game sure... but from what i understand it's a short wii game.
I think often "Wii Legs" are created by the fact that said wii games are the kinds of games that people want to play "forever" games that people don't trade in.
