Move will not have a bunch of million sellers.

Kung fu Rider is 38 on metacritic, Start the party 54.  Sports Champions 74.  Not AAA scores.

Sport Champions will go over 1 million because of its bundling with Move.  So far the early move games have no hope of 1 million.

Metascore doesn't mean much for casual games. These three games got abysmal scores but are all over 1 million:

Well the Wii has a massive casual audience and those games were released at a budget price. Carnival Games and Game Party were released for $20.

Will casuals buy the PS3, a Move bundle, and higher priced Move games? Don't expect much.

Move games are lower priced than normal games.

I mean higher priced than Wii shovelware like Game Party and Carnival Games.

because those were released awhile ago?

They were launched for $20.

I think most Wii shovelware is sold at $20 - $30. Wii generally has the biggest bargain bin as well.

WHICH Wii games is the question? Like any other console, MANY Wii games don't sell that hot, but because the Wii has more "shovelware", it's percentage is probably higher.

I am talkin games like wii party,wii sports n etc

Because of variety I believe in the long run the Move will have more million sellers than even Kinect.

How would you classify a Move game in this sense? Would you classify Killzone 3 (which is a guranteed million seller regardless of Move) as a Move title, or does it need to be a more Move specific title?


That's a good point.  I'd say you'd have to consider Move only games to be fair and accurate.

For the record, I don't see either Move or Kinect having a lot of million sellers.  Some maybe but not a lot.  At this point to say that they will is just so speculative that its borderline mad.

Obviously a Move title would be a title that requires a Move controller.

Only a small percentage of Killzone 3 players will actually have and play with the Move.

The best definition would be a title that was bought to be played with Move, but since we have no way of tracking that, it can't really be used...

MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! YEAH I THINK YOU NEED NEW FRIENDS!Honestly its highly unlikely not because Kinect is better but simply because SONY is not very clear who exactly they are trying to sell this to were as with MS and Nintendo have made it perfectly clear from the onset, add to that the mediocre marketing push and so-so backing from SONY themselves I don't see it.


Wow, you do realize you just made it ENTIRELY clear you are an MS nutswinger. You don't post facts, you just laugh and say Kinect is better.

 

Sony has made it clear that their Move games are family oriented. I think that pretty much clears it up who they are pushing their software for. As for some of their 1st party games, they are shooters. Kind of obvious who shooters are directed to. If someone has to tell you, you must not be very intellectual. We should all know by now who Killzone 3 and SOCOM 4 are aimed at.

 

And the controllers are a bit lucrative when it comes to gameplay. The software based on them could be aimed at anyone. Children, adults, and even family oriented. Who the 3rd party software is aimed at is completely up to the developer. I think its safe to say that ALL motion control hardware is aimed at EVERYONE, unless its shaped like a cock and you don't spend most of your time with it in your hand.

 

Understood?

 

As for Sony having the most million sellers.... that doesn't have much to do with Move. Sure, move will probably score them ~5 million sellers during 2001, but its not going to give them the 40-50 its going to take to put them up there with the 360, especially after Kinect releases. Whether or not Sony ends up with the most million sellers is almost solely based on hardware sales. A larger userbase equals more million sellers. Even if the attach rate per console drops by 40%, twice as many consoles would still mean more million sellers.

No... I don't agree with that at all.

I'm just saying there is a fine line between Move support and Move required.

If I can play a game with a joystick, I don't perceive it as a Move game.
