Don't blame the fans...blame sony's crappy marketing..I love Kevin Butler ads but they don't generate sales


You can't do Halo marketing for both resistance and killzone. 

Ofcourse it's great for Sci-fi FPS fans, but I don't think this strategy is right going forward.


who said you have to market a different product the same way as something else? thats stupid

By Halo marketing I meant spending lots of cash on it. Sony can't give the same amount of cash to both of those games.

I think you'll find that the ones who brag about PS3 exclusives being superior usualy DO BUY them. I mean, there is a pretty huge hole in your logic. You are comparing hype comments from internet web site with an active community of maybe 500+ members and LTD worldwide total sales. Doesnt that sound little bit un logical to you?

You fail to realise that the supposed fans on the internet who say those things only account for maybe 1, maybe 2% of the PS3 population.

Even if every PS3 fan on the VGChartz, N4G, IGN, etc forums went out to buy a game, they would only account for about 1 million people.

I don't understand why people have a hard time understanding this.



 

 

 

What? The PS3 has certainly picked up some major steam though and has outsold the 360 all year and willl outsell the 360 WW this year.

I do agree that PS3 fans don't seem to support their major exclusives like 360 fans do for the most part but the PS3 isn't doing poorly currently at all, in fact its the best selling console of the year.



thanks to all who commented in this thread,even the ones who were not so nice about it i am the sort of guy not easily offended.
i try to learn from who and whatever i encounter in life,all i meant to say was that sony released a ton of great ips this gen and wished they got alot more initial sales at launch but as many others have shown me they the games will be ok,the legs will do it,

but my point about RS3 not selling because the dev has said they will go multiplat as some on this site have suggested is a strange way to act,once again i am sorry if i offened anyone with my thread.

1) That was almost illegible. Please, please, please, put a space after your fullstops/periods.

2) I'm not going to buy something because it's an exclusive. Yes, Call of Duty is a little bit derivative, and doesn't innovate much, but the games are still among the best on the console. If a really brilliant exclusive comes out (such as Uncharted 2, or LBP, or GoW3), I'll buy it almost immediately. Any exclusive that really interests me, I will buy at some point. But I have no interest in Resistance after the massive letdown of the second game, especially when there are so many shooters available that are a great deal better.

With that said, this thread is clearly an attempt at flamebaiting, so I'm locking it.
