Forums - Microsoft - Which games will live up to their hype?

easy - something like Carnival Games
almost no hype yet sold quite well

I think he means quality not sales.

I would agree that Fallout 3 is recieving almost no hype from the general PS3/X360/PC crowd here. Yes, I never played the greatness of FO1/2 when they came out (I can still remember almost picking it up new, when it came out).

So I think it could live upto the hype, since there seems to be none.

And since everyone thinks BK3 will crash & burn, I think it'll do very well too...Atleast compared to the hype (Rare has a 66% succuess record when it comes to X360 games. Time for another hit).



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Fallout 3 starts with you coming out of your mother's womb, how can such a game not deliver?

Also the collector's edition is a monster.

well I checked on the series, and the last couple games in it bombed horribly and were ridiculed. (fallout)

Ridiculed by who exactly? They were niche games of high quality and critical acclaim.

If a game isn't a huge seller doesn't mean it's crappy.

Fallout: Tactics was released in early 2001 to mixed reviews. Although it was given high scores by reviewers (PC Gamer gave it an 85%[5]), many fans were disappointed by the game. Fallout Tactics focuses on tactical combat rather than role-playing; the new combat system included different modes, stances, and modifiers, but the player had no dialogue options. Most of the criticisms of the game came from its incompatibility with the story of the original two games, not from its gameplay. Tactics is the first Fallout game to not require the player to fight in a turn-based mode, and it is also the first to allow the player to customize the skills, perks, and combat actions of the rest of the party. Fallout: Tactics includes a multi-player mode that allows players to compete against squads of other characters controlled by other players. Unlike the previous two games, which are based in California, Fallout: Tactics takes place in the Midwest.

from wikipedia

 

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, abbreviated as FO:BoS, is a Playstation 2 and X-Box only game, published and developed by Interplay. Chuck Ceuvas, the Lead Producer, was infamous for his disregard for the unique style, the continuity, and the fans of the series. Among Fallout fans, it is also known as Fallout: Enforcer, which is a reference to the 1st person action game "X-Com Enforcer" which is considered responsible for the death of the X-com series, and as FO:PoS (Fallout: Piece of Shit) based on the near universal hatred of the game among fans.

The game was a commercial failure, selling an embarassing 17,000 copies worldwide and at its release, it was being outsold by the original Fallout collection (Fallout 1 and 2 combined).
