Yeah but I already said sales =/= quality.

Gears 2 has a meta of 93 as oppose to its predecessor which is on 94.

LBP is on 95 meta and the second one seems a lot better.
Killzone 2 is on 91 meta and thats with all the "heavy, grey looking, delay" critique it has gotten.

Since im in the KZ3 beta I, just like you said about Gears 3, can say that KZ3 can beat most if not all of that in the ratings.

Ico and Shadow of the colossus are old games and have few meta scores but they are considerd as the PS2's best games. The last guardian could be very damn good.

Resistance is taking another turn and unlike the previous games that was released with a year gap (Resistance 1 on '07 and Resistance 2 on '08) Resistance 3 is launching at '11. And yet the Resistance series went up from R:FOM compared to Resistance 2 in terms of meta as R:FOM is 86 and R2 is 87, making me believe R3 can be damn good.

Etc etc. My point is, Gears 3 has to beat every single one of them. If it manages to get a meta above Gears 2 and above Gears 1, its still on par with LBP1. And god forbid Naughty dog releasing Uncharted 3 at '11.

Opinions are opinions, Im talking subjective reviews which on meta is a compilation of opinions based on people who deliver their experiences of games for a living. Do you wish to do a bet that Gears 3 won't beat every single exclusive Sony has up for 2011 in terms of Meta?

Shouldn't this be discussed in another thread? This is just pointless derailment. Really, all Chairman said was that Gears is a big title which will suffice for them in the holidays, and it's relevant to what the OP is discussing, because the OP's topic is about core titles for 2011, and how lucrative they are to Microsoft from a business standpoint. And let's face it, Gears is a big franchise. Not Halo/GT levels, but big nevertheless.

And last but not least, believe it or not, Gears has the quality to people who played it (according to general consensus).

The bottom line is, this debate between you and Jadedx is going nowhere, and only stirs up trouble.
