Forums - Sony Discussion - So 1up/egm are not anti PS3 in their reviews ?

WiteoutKing on 02 August 2007

If someone tried to sell a Wii game for $99.99, they damn well better be getting shitty scores, because the game is not worth that amount.

Price and cost-worth should absolutely be a part of the rating process.



PS3: 5.51m/51w, avg 108,039/w (up 239)
360: 12.93m/102w, avg 126,764/w (up 625), leads PS3 by 7.42m (up 70k), avg lead 18,725/w (up 386)
Wii: 13.52m/51w, avg 265,098/w (dn 1,102), leads PS3 by 8.01m (up 90k), avg lead 157,059/w (dn 1,341)

If 360 sales stabilize, PS3 sales increases needed to pass 360 by...
01/08: (008w) +875.8%, 04/08: (021w) +344.4%, 07/08: (034w) +219.3%, 10/08: (047w) +163.5%
01/09: (060w) +131.8%, 04/09: (073w) +111.4%, 07/09: (085w) +098.1%, 10/09: (099w) +086.7%
If Wii sales stabilize, PS3 sales increases needed to pass Wii by...
01/08: (008w) +1072.%, 04/08: (021w) +498.4%, 07/08: (034w) +363.4%, 10/08: (047w) +303.1%
01/09: (060w) +269.0%, 04/09: (073w) +246.9%, 07/09: (085w) +232.6%, 10/09: (099w) +220.3%
If PS2 sales freeze, Wii sales increases needed to pass PS2 (as of Mar07, 108.4m) by...
2008: (008w) +4373.8%, 2009: (060w) +0496.5%, 2010: (112w) +0219.6%, 2011: (165w) +0116.9%
2012: (217w) +0064.9%, 2013: (269w) +0033.1%, 2014: (321w) +0011.5%, 2015: (376w) -0004.8%
At +0% it will pass it in 358w, the week ending September 19th, 2014, at an age of 409w (7y44w).
Current age of PS2: 7y37w.

Last update: Week ending November 3, 2007

I think you are taking this a bit out of context.

I bet his intent was to say this game isn't worth full price, either because of length or quality, not that they should literally deduct a point for price.

Why is this even an issue. Every single review anyone ever does takes into account the price. You just don't hear about it because the price is widely known and usually standard and only mentioned if there's something off about it (too high for a short game, or a good buy at a low price). In this case Sony wouldn't tell them the price so they said well we assumed it was $30 and if it's any higher than it's not as good a game for that price. Here's what you really should be thinking -- maybe the score is only as high as it is because of the budget price, and if it were any higher than the score would be lower 'cause it just doesn't stand up to full-priced games.

So basicly if mario galaxy is supposed to get a 10/10 its price will drop it to a 9/10? Its the same situation.

Pretty much. If Mario was going to get a 10/10 and then suddenly instead of making it a full priced game they decided to charge $70 for it it would likely get a reduced score.


Does it have online, nope then even if its normal price it should get -1

Its not a full game.


 And now we're back to trolling, if only it were record time it might be something notable.  A game doesn't need to be online to be good.


Or COMPLETE, which was what his ill informed criticism was.
