| VGKing said: I don't know about that. Call of Duty 2 sold pretty well and it encouraged sequels which in then turned this franchise into the biggest video game this generation. No, shooters aren't the exeption to the rule. Perfect Dark Zero is a shooter and that failed to break 1m sales. There can only be 1 reason why Perfect Dark and Kameo both flopped. The lead characters are women. |
Perfect Dark is not in the same category as COD. It's an action adventure game. It's problem is that it was ported from N64 and most of the gamers back then still had N64 and their PD and Goldeneye. Nobody gives a damn about a lead character in my opinion. Look at ME3 where most of the videos on youtube feature female Shep. I just won't buy a female character on Gears of War unless they make her look just like Marcus Phoenix or Cole Train. People are taking this discussion way out of the context.
