They won't. I see no hype over GoW: A and Gears: J and, most importantly, no ads.

No hype? Um, there's hype all over the place for Ascension, especially since the demo/beta. Gears hype is fairly low, by comparison.


TV ads. Not internet. Gears:J is getting ads as well across the internet and XBL.  Internet hype vs real world hype is both very different, and I see little hype compared to there predecessors.

Neither has a predecessor. Second, I've seen a commercial for both Gears J and God of War: Ascension, though the latter was promotional and not an actual ad. On the net, yes, but unlike the past, net hype makes a difference in 2013.

Now looking at the pre-order numbers, both are behind the last titles that released, Gears especially, but that can be attributed more to each title's status, not lack of "hype".


-_-  You knew very well on what i meant by predecessors.

No internet hype is very small compared to the real world.  Yes it helps but people who visit forums and gaming websites are in a big minority.  It helps getting ads on youtube though since that is basically a form of telivision and your every day person will visit.

And yes Gears Judgement is way behind Gears 3 but relatively close to God of War Ascension and  I wouldn't doubt it if Gears Judgement actually will have a higher preorder rate than God of War Asencion by its final week.

those gears pre orders are a joke, no matter what way you look at it
