I believe Sony purchased the Infamous studio and Media Molecule this gen. In both cases the IPs from them have failed to create blockbuster sales and have both dropped off in sales with every successive release.

Oh, silly me. I thought "underperforming" meant we knew, for sure, it didn't reach expectations of the company. Carry on. ;)

LBP - 5.13 m, LBP 2 - 2.84 m

LBP (PSP) - 2.17 m, LBP Vita - 0.35 m (currently)

LBP Karting - 0.42 m (currently)

Infamous - 2.56, Infamous 2 - 1.53

Oh im sorry, I had no idea that Sony either bought them knowing that sales would decrease rather then increase....an exact opposite motivation to acquire a budding IP and developer for themselves, OR that they have very low expectations as a company.

Don't know why your picking a fight with me on this one, yet still maintaining the ";)" attitude despite the numbers being clearly in my favor.

You know that Media Molecule wasn't involved in all of those LBP games, correct? Also, despite inFAMOUS 2 selling less than its predecessor, that doesn't mean that it A. underperformed or B. will be the downfall of Sucker Punch.

So, it's not about randomly picking fights, it's picking apart a flimsy argument. If they are truly "underperforming", they too will then be trimmed, but you spin anything related to this company to justify your viewpoint. Doesn't mean it can't be debated ;)

You can nitpick, but the grand picture with the IPs remains unchanged. The numbers each IP are pulling in now are nothing to be proud of, both showing downward trends, and if they do meet expectations, then they are low expectations. I dont know how to make it any clearer.

Throwing around a ";)" and "flimsy" doesn't change that my point is rooted in numbers on this site, regarding a downward trend with IPs that Sony origionally bought with the idea of them showing promise in the beginning.
