Max Payne 2 was pretty bad.......... |
And it sold poorly to boot. Exactly my point.

Nope. They banded together and killed the Wii dead. Now, they can't get all the free money because they forgot to feed to cash cow. |
funny thing is they did and you are wrong. They did release subsequent Carnival games, but they werent anywhere near as popular as the orginal. Why did alot less people buy those games, I have no idea
I think there's a problem with the bigger picture here: a game selling 3 million copies at full price couldn't pay off its budget...

fair enough, but personally, should have probably seen that one coming
The problem with Max Payne 3 was the enormous budget, apparently it cost over 100$ million. Absolutely ridiculous for a game like that.
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

That's effed up. I mean, I know GTA 4 had a budget that high, but even that game shouldn't have needed that budget. I mean if Naughty Dog can keep Uncharted in the 20 million, 2 year dev cycle then they could keep Max Payne in check. As another comparison, God of War 3's budget was 50 million, came in under budget at 45 million (God of War 2 had the same budget) and about a 3 year dev cycle.

Max Payne 3 is a disaster. Whoever signed the dotted line agreeing to a $100m budget is a moron and should be fired








My prediction threads:
Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)
PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)
Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Yup, I have no idea where all the money went. They must have restarted production several times or something. Take Two messed this up pretty bad, shame since it's a very well made title.

I hope this doesnt affect another Bully, that game doesnt need that much money
