I wouldn't call it platform bias, Titanfall was advertised as an Xbox One game, so people bought it for Xbox One. Watch Dogs was advertised for PlayStation console, PlayStation got the most sales. Simple logic. |
This is platform bias. Most of the events had Watch Dogs running on PS4, and it was a multi-platform game so why advertise it for Ps4 (money) so what do you call this platform bias. Titanfall can be considered exception because it was available for only Xbox aand Pc so it may not be platform bias. But ads for Xbox one only is platform bias
|
Thats just like saying advertising and sponsorship = bias.
Thats obvious and thats the whole point of advertising and sponsorships.
|
But it is misleading for average consumer, I was at a game store few days back and a man came and asked for Watch Dogs on ps3, I asked him why was he buying it on ps3, he answered I own Xbox 360, One, Ps3 but I am buying it own Ps3 because he thought it was exclusive I told him he was wrong and we both got in a debate, I told him it was only exclusive content. He then agree's with me and buys Xbox One version. So the question is why he did he even thought game was exclusive.
|
Why did you ask a random guy why is he buying a game for the PS3? Just because he wasn't buying it for a Microsoft console? Talk about platform bias.
|
Because I am a frequent visitor of store and I have always seen that guy buying Xbox One and 360 stuff.
