So were Assassin's Creed, Gears of War, LittleBIGPlanet, Bioshock, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Mass Effect, Uncharted, & HEAVY RAIN. Look how they turned out, ALL critically acclaimed, ALL new IPs. That's not to say Conviction will be bad, or of less value than the newer IPs. It's just that being a new IP doesn't instantly mean Conviction has pre-determined leverage. |
New IPs are unknown. For every 1 IP that is a success they would have been 10 new IPs that failed. New IPs = higher risk.
Established series is a much lower risk than a new IP. But most likely I will buy both of these games: Alan Wake and Splintyer Cell: Conviction. 2 of the Xbox 360s top 10 games released in 2010.
