LBP2 is a massive sales disappointment.
LBP after 10 weeks - 134k for the week and total of 1.8m
LBP2 after 10 weeks - 23k for the week and total of 1.1m
Not sure where this franchse will go after this, needs a new direction... somehow.

Can't get over the ignorance of this post, given a holiday launch versus a January launch...
|
Cant get over the arrogance of this post... (as usual)
Go complain to the idiot at Sony that decided its fate... dont come complaining to me.
Didn't seem to stop the opposite comparison being valid in the gt5 gt4 sales comparison did it...?

So what you're saying is that you got upset when people compared GT4/GT5 unfairly in order to flatter GT5, but then you're happy to do the exact same thing so that you can bash LBP2.
Congratulations on exposing your own hypocrisy. Words almost fail me.

Umm no. I wasnt saying I got upset at the GT4/GT5 comparison. You were the one getting upset and displaying hypocricy (as others here have also identified) by getting all flustered by my LBP/LBP2 comparison. I am not bashing LBP2 at all, I am merely making an observation.
Finally... relax... "words almost fail me" , "cant get over the ignorance", Jesus.. chill out fella.

I'm not upset (nor surprised) that you're bashing LBP2 sales; I just think you should be consistent - if you were upset by certain GT4/GT5 comparisons (and evidently you were), you shouldn't follow suit and draw similarly misleading comparisons, because that's what you've done and that's why your earlier post was hypocritical.
And how could I possibly have been hypocritical when I have approved neither of misleading Gran Turismo comparisons nor of misleading LittleBigPlanet comparisons? Think it through...
|
No, I wasnt upset by the GT4/GT5 comparison, where is the evidence that I was upset. I didnt know you thought the GT5/GT4 comparisons were bogus. Have you ever voiced this concern to those that espouse the comparison?
Anyway, I will take back the hypocrisy claim I made about you, since you have clarified your stance. But I would expect you to do the same for me... just as you are against both of the comparions, I think both comparisons are entirely valid. I believe that so far GT5 is doing well in relation to GT4 and LBP2 is doing very badly in comparsion to LBP, so where is the hypocrisy?
And once last time.... I'm not "bashing" its sales, I am merely illustrating, informing and discussing. If we can only discuss positive aspects of anything then whats the point?

If I voiced every concern I have then I'd be on here 24/7. Ultimately, I would imagine my stance against poor comparisons to be implicitly understood, in much the same way that - if I may invoke Godwin's Law - I don't announce my disapproval of Hitler but one can confidently infer that I do disapprove of him.
I feel that in my last post I conveyed as clearly as I can how I interpreted hypocrisy in your earlier post, so I won't repeat myself.
I agree there is no point if we can't discuss negative sales as well as positive sales, but discussion of negative sales should be carried out fairly and ingenuously, and since poor comparisons preclude such conditions I deemed it unwelcome bashing (for want of a better word).
