I am not an owner of any console and the i was just wandering around and i found this site with some pretty interesting discussion and above all very impressive statistics. (i just wish they add few more options in manipulating the data for extracting statistics).
Anyway leaving aside from different discussions i found that if not all most of the games especially exculsives for PS3 bombed in American launch but they r doing very good in Europe... as in some other discussion someone said that European Attach rate for PS3 is much better than American... especially games like Heavely Sword...
So wot could be the reason.
May be its due to the bundling effect but still i find that in europe games are finding more legs to continue...
So there r two questions on this
Firstly wot do u think are the prime reason for this.
1. Better publicity by Sony
2. More people buying the console for gaming in europe and more people buying it as primary blu-ray player in america.
3. American people have become a little strict in spending on games.
4. Better quality advertisement by Sony.
5. or some other factor...
and my second question is may be i should create a new thread for it... but anyway for the time being let have it here...
Should Sony concentrate Europe as their primary hub for launching titles and PS3 related stuff.. ?
1. I mean suppose they have launched Heavenly sword first in europe then in america then may be more sales in europe could have triggered somewhat better sales in America? it sound like a foolish idea but may be its not that bad.
2. atleast some good numbers in europe could have given them less criticism in american media
or
3. it could have atleast given developers a lot more hope and reason to stick with the console.
I m not a fanboy neither i have any console, so just got a little curious wandering on this site, so it can be highly possible that all my queries r on wrong assumption or on lack of knowledge.
so i will appreciate if it can be kept flame free...
