Yeah..probably but not a massive increase.



Around the Network

According to my "Amazon most wished for items / thread" ( http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=186768&page=1# ), hype for this game is currently pretty low.

It ranks around (already low) Splatoon levels that will only release next year. It doesn't appear to be highly anticipated at the moment. I would not expect much of a boost.



It will move some units but I don't think it'll do much. If a price drop couldn't do much I don't see how a non-Halo/non-shooter will.



PC GAMING: BEST GAMES. WORST CONTROLS

A mouse & keyboard are made for sending email and typing internet badassery. Not for playing video games!!!

depends on how they market it since it generally unknown game to the gaming masses that dont follow this stuff as close as most of us do.

i know i am buying it at some point, i will have to be picky with all these games coming out and I am not allowed to get anymore overtime at work.

I'm gonna be less impulsive and wait for some good Black Friday deals for a few games.

that would be the wiser move, i hope they have some buy 2 get 1 free or better buy one get one free again this year, though i highly doubt it.

As for Sales overall the game should do well, Splatoon and Sunset Overdrive take the fps to another level so i hope it does well. Only bad thing for this game is the release window is kinda bad, should of been in the beginning of Oct, but might be overshadowed by AC and the other BIG Yearly releases!


Except that neither splatoon nor sunset overdrive is fps, they are tps.



Nothing significant. Its something people are looking forward to, but its not the kind of game that moves hardware.
