Humm, so 155 million of user bought PS2 only for Gran Turismo. Seem legit... sarcastic mode off Seriusly, i didn't say PS2 has not good exclusive (it has awesome games) but the TRULY reason of those sales, yes, is the marketing. Just accept this. |
Huh? Do you understand what marketing is? Its entire purpose is to inform people about a product. Are you suggesting the Xbox/GameCube marketing were so bad that gamers didn't know about those consoles or understand what they were? Or maybe that the ps2 marketing mislead/lied to people about what they were getting? Simply saying, "it's marketing, deal with it" is nonsense. Explain what you mean, because the only two scenarios I can think of both fly in the face of reality.
The reality is that the Ps2 had over 5 times as many total games as the gc and over 3 times as many as the Xbox. It also had a higher number of well received exclusives, a much more well rounded library that appealed more to a global audience, goodwill from the ps1, etc. The reasons the PS2 handily sold more hardware and software that generation are numerous, so reducing it to "lol marketing" is ridiculous at best.
