I really do think Sony need to revise their marketing strategy.

There have been some successful ones, like Heavy Rain, but they seem to struggle overall hitting mainstream appeal.

Why would the success or failure of a game be attributed to a marketing strategy?  It is possible Heavy Rain was unique enough, and caught enough of a buzz on the Internet, it did good sales.

Common sense? Come on, if internet buzz translated to sales, Killzone 2 sales would've been possibly way higher than they are now.

Heavy Rain is in a niche genre, and it needed the marketing. Fortunately, Sony hit it just right.
