Do we blame the developers for sinking so much money into a game and not knowing what the outcome will be? Do we blame the Publishers for not promoting the game with decent advertisements? Or do we blame the market with games like Hannah Montana and High School Musical selling more units then Uncharted: Drakes Fortune and Zack & Wiki? Or do we blame the system makers (like Nintendo and Sony) for not selling enough system units to support such high software sales numbers? Either way, when games like Uncharted: Drakes Fortune receives so many amazing reviews, yet sells so little units it makes you wonder what the hell went wrong? Maybe we should just blame Hannah Montana... |
That's easy. All of thee above. Maybe system makers should sell new titles along with sports, racing and kiddy games at $40 and established franchises at $60. I just bought NFS PS (a game I was going to wait and could've waited 'til it hit $30 to buy) from amazon because it's on sale for $40. It'll certainly make you give a game a second look. I'm not saying this would make every game sale well but it could help. I'd get two games for $80 but 2 for $120? I'm going to have to think about that. To add: I just wasn't into uncharted and I had no idea what UT was.
