^^^^^ Say what you want about the Halo series, it has had great reviews from multiple sites and magazines from Combat Evovled to H3(One exeption is the Pc version of H2)



Why do 360 owners buy crappy games??? Kane & Lynch is about to hit 1 million despite horrible reviews!



Tag - "No trolling on my watch!"

you beat me to it badonkadonkhr



perhaps reviews are overrated.

perhaps how good a game is should be primarily determined by how much it sells.

perhaps the buyers know more than the reviewers.

after all, they're the ones paying up. if their opinions don't count, whose do?



the Wii is an epidemic.

You said crappy GAMES which is plural, yet you only mentioned one game.



Dang, let me pull up a log, whip out the marshmallows and Vienna Beefs for this flame fest ...

Mario sells - Zelda sells - Halo sell - PS sells. Most folks aren't privy to info that games suck. The uninformed buy them because they see the name and do little research.

 Perhaps reviewers have no friends, because all these "crappy" games are enjoyable in the company of others.



wow u base your game purchases on reviews. You do know most gam reviewers are generally FPS fans. So games like that won't appeal to them. However mass market it will appeal to someone.

Also there are 20millions wii consoles out there so 1-3million sales on games liek this isn't so suprising.



 

 


The buy them to match their outfits. Get a clue guys.
