Just because you buy a game, it doesn't mean that you consider it a quality game. People buy games because they are fun, because their friends bought them, because they look cool (graphics, trailer) etc. I bought Pokemon Y and I think it's a good game, but not as good as Gravity Rush. I also bought wii sports and I don't think it's a good game. It was fun at first, but then it got old. Again, just because you bought a game, it doesn't mean you think that game is good. Quality has nothing to do with it. No one cared about Picasso and suddendly his works are the most expensive works ever. Did they magically become better after his death? NO. Lack of interest in them or in a game, has no correlation with its quality. There's a reason Shadow of the Colossus is considered one of the best games ever made and wii play simply terrible. Tons of people bought it, but most don't think it's any good. |
That's the point of a GAME! You buy a game to simply have FUN. Why should the masses not declare the game as quality when they had fun with it ?
People did care about Picasso's work at the time! They did not SUDDENLY just became valuable, it became valuable DURING his time as an artist. Much like shakespeare's work. A lack of interest does have correlation to quality. Tell me why shadow of the colossus is considered one of the best games. How do you know that the masses thought WII Play wasn't any good ?
