To me, it says that brand name is a powerful force. CoD is the biggest shooter series ever, and Aliens:CM has the combined brand name of Aliens and Gearbox.

There we go, nothing more to say.

Still plays into my idea that reviews don't matter, if that means people buy anyway.

It's all aout brand power and how the games look, plus advertisement if you ask me. Reviews is a plus, and cod on vita would have sold much more with good reviews. Thats just the way it is sadly. The best games don't neccecarely win.
