What do you think impacts sales more. Hype or word of mouth?
I personally think it's a mixture of both. A game with a good word of mouth (Call of Duty Modern Warfare) Can get really good legs. The PS3 version had a 400k opening and has 5.5 million right now. Beating huge games like God of War 3, MGS4, e.t.c. But a game in a series which has a good word of mouth can make the sequel sell a lot better. (Call of Duty, Halo, Uncharted) but at the same time these sequels need to have a lot of hpye and come out at the right time. Do you agree with me? I think some people here may have arguments here but that is accepetable in this type of situation. Just try not to get into fights.
