| irstupid said: I don't get why Metacritic has any weight at all. I mean the way most games are these days is similar to movies. Big box office weekend sales. Or in video games, the first weeks sales. Most games these days seem to prevent reviews from coming out until the day game is released or a few days at best before. So shouldn't the company already have all its advertisements and shit on the tv, online and so on already? So metacritic shoudlnt' be affecting sales at all. People should be interested in the game and be planning to buy the game based off of the advertising done on the games behalf before its release. |
while games are more frontloaded than ever, I still think a majority of sales for most games comes after the first week or two.
