I doubt Heavy Rain would have sold as much as it did if it weren't an exclusive. Same with MGS and Mass Effect. |
Mass Effect sold 2.16 million.
MGS sold 4.59.
Assassains Creed... a game that was VERY hit or miss with all around less popularity then both in just about every metric sold over 7 million.
RE 5 sold 5.5 Million.
Heavy Rain MAYBE only because it really was never supposed to be a "Big budget" game... but big budget games are going to sell better multiplatform wise. The fact that they're big budget themselves is what will get people excited regardless.
Exclusivity can really only help middleground games... like say Modnation racers that isn't going to get much advertising and will rely on internet hype and word of mouth.

u really think people wud have the same opinion they have about MGS4 now as when it wud have been multiplat.no chance.
and comparing established franchises like RE and MGS with Mass effect and Assasins creed isn't fair.
Assasins creed got big discount,the first one got hyped as a PS3 exclusive then major advertising for both the version.there is no way the second game would have sold so well without discounts

Why wouldn't they? MGS 1-3 hold very similiar opinions.
