So guys...what happens if nobody cares? What happens if after the initial big sales the game dies because it doesn't live up to the hype? It happens all the time. For every super hyped up game that comes out and lives up to it's hype there are at least a couple that fail and fall into obscurity. Some of them even sell well but mostly just disappoint the people who buy it.
Duke Nukem Forever
Crysis 2
Call of Juerez: the Cartel
Enter the Matrix
Dead island
Medal of Honor (2010)
Fable 3
Homefront
Red Steel
Crysis 3
Halo: ODST
Beyond: two souls
Thief
Video game history is littered with games that were hyped beyond belief to only be quickly forgotten (or remembered as some kind of joke) because they failed to deliver.
I'm not saying that TitanFall is doomed to fail or that it's overhyped, I'm just saying it might be a good idea to learn from out past mistakes and maybe wait until people have more than a couple of hours on a beta to go on before we declare it the second coming. |
Uh, there was zero hype for the Cartel. I approve the rest of your post

Yeah, fair enough. Still though, that's a pretty long list of games that were in a pretty similar situation to TF that went down hard.
