Your the one babbling here. 40 bilion dollars upon the whole population of roughly 300 million is actually small. That's like $120 and you don't even know if it's attributed to game purchases either so your total point is null and void for the most part and while looking idiotic at the same time. DO THE MATH. Using worthless points do not make your arguments strong. As for me backing up my data you can clearly go look at the game sales. GTA V and the TLOU have the same reviewer quality but guess what ? Game sales paint a different picture as to who sees quality in the game. The market in general sees the experienced gamer and the masses the same thing so you really can't count them out because all votes are essentially the same. Why did TLOU not get equally close sales to GTA V ? It's really clear that the masses just think that GTA V is the vastly superior game. It's obvious that your idea of the masses impulse buying is really stupid.
Need I remind you that half life or SM3DW comes nowhere NEAR close to GTA V in sales despite the fact that they pretty much have the same quality for the most part. Reviews do not reflect sales and that is reflected by the fact that they don't scale well in comparison to the market. So there goes your other crappy point that review scores = sales.
@Bold That's so stupid I'm not even gonna answer to this. For a mario title that's pretty pathetic in comparison to other 3D marios. Galaxy 2 was able to pull off a million copies easily at it's first week aligned and that was the seccond lowest selling 3D mario so SM3DW was truly a low quality title. BTW it's first week aligned sales were around 400K so yea it's low quality.
Or before you keep making more crappy points for me to rip apart. Your done here. Just admit that SALES = QUALITY and leave it at that because you clearly ran out of garbage to throw at. |
You must be joking! You do realize that there are not 300 million consumers in the U.S right? If that was the case, the gross revenue reported for holiday sales would be almost 3x higher than it currently is. Please try and think before hastly replying as it makes you look utterly foolish. Interesting how you've picked an established game series to claim a similar comparision in a shoddy attempt to prove I am wrong. You also have not provided any statistics regarding impulse buying or really anything intelligent for that matter. First of all, and I don't know times I have to say this until it gets through your thick skull but like I stated, reviews are a major contributing factor to sales and there are the exceptions. You've seem to have provided an excellent example without realizing. GTAV has a meta of 97 vs TLOU at 95. GTAV is the highest reviewed game this year and outsold ever other game released. See, I don't have to debate you because eventually you end up refuting yourself due to your own stupidity!
Your not getting the point. Were you dropped on your head numerous times in your youth??? Again, I'll repeat myself because you simply can't quite comprehend. FOR THE MOST PART REVIEWS "CONTRIBUTE" TO SALES!!! Your argument claiming it is not is absolutely absurd. Also, please stop talking about the market because you obviouly (and it's very apparent)do not have a damn clue about about how the market actually operates. Your argument can be easily flipped and you fail to include the userbase on each console. High rated game like GTAV on consoles with 80Mill userbases will have signifcantly more sales than a game that came out 2 weeks ago with a userbase of now 4.5 mill.
I have refuted as well as pointed out the lack of "quality" in your absurd posts and misunderstanding of game sales. Every time you are proven false and I bring up a new point, you continue to regurgitate the same "as you Brits would call it" poppycock that has already been renedered moot. But, by all means keep going. I enjoy refuting your impared logic!
