My whole point to you, which hasn't shifted even slightly, is that the numbers are meaningless outside of your personal opinion. You can prove that the sequels did less. OK, great, Gears of War 3 sold less than Gears of War 2 - so what? It's as I've said to you, nothing beyond speculating.

Except Gears 3 sold 5.75 million......allready a massive profit. My examples, recently LBP Karting/LBP Vita, are both below 0.5 million. Infamous 2 barely crossed 1.5 million. Hardly the same thing concerning profitability and sustainability.

Your saying success is relative. Ok. Cool. Proving that the 2 IPs sold less over time was my point. Sorry that I am using common sense (speculation in your terms) that Sony "should" expect higher numbers. In the end, I took concrete numbers and formed an opinion and your just using relativity as your main response. Please.

So now you've moved to profits? OK. Do we know if LBP2 and inFAMOUS 2 weren't profitable? LBP Vita/Karting were spin-off and/or non-MM titles, so they pack little relevance to the discussion.

You talk common sense, let's use it - assuming something is fact without anything concrete is, in fact, lacking sense. Your point - MM and Sucker Punch are "underperforming". Mine - we have no clue about that. THE Point - speculation at best. All I can say - when sequels/new IPs are no longer in the works for either company, let's come back here. :)

Was that your idea? To wait for me to slip up and POUNCE on that? lol w/e. My point was sales (sustainability), I wrote profitability while in the moment. Forgive my grave error ;)

Its a simple opinion...using declining numbers over time I say the IPs are underperforming. You say "you can't prove anything". Well woop-de-do, thats just my take based on whatever concrete info the site offers, sorry that Sony doesn't tell me the $$$ numbers. And im sorry that it hit a nerve enough that you had to get into a prolonged discussion trying to tell me that my opinion doesn't agree with you.

Guess debates on gaming in general are meaningless, since nothing can be truly 100% proved. What a joke response. Claiming ignorance to educated guesses....
