Yeah, ok GT5 will move systems alright, it's like MGS4 in that sense.

But generally, for almost all the genres you can already get amazing, high quality games, so it is unlikely that there are many prospective buyers out there who are waiting for the next great FPS etc. to buy a HD console.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

early?! I thought this was last weeks topic lol

no real smash atm but im sure halo wars will give a nice boost

 

 Since when has a RTS been a console mover?

 

Since when? Since the RTS in question has "Halo" in the title.

I've been waiting for someone to say that but I have to say.. since when do RTS sell outstanding well on consoles?

-awaits the use of Halo in the title excuse-

Also if anything Halo OSDT will likely be a bigger console mover than Halo Wars.

 

maybe but halo wars WILL give a amazing boost in HW sales

 

Gosh, why do you talk like this is HALO 4... a RTS on consoles never pushes hardware, hell most RTS's are lucky to hit 1 million.  That said, I think Halo Wars will likely sell anywhere from 4 to 5 million in its lifetime.

 

A RTS on consoles has never pushed hardware YET *btw  see that i don't use specific numbers even a boost of 10k could be amazing for your logic that RTS DONT SELL OMGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

Fine.. but it's only going to sell strongly to those owning Halo 3 and therefore not sell hardware.
