I liked god of war 1 and 2. I'm just saying that these games don't compare to zelda or smg or ssbb....

 

Thats totally subjective, is a matter of opinion and you could be wrong. Do you think?

 

True, but more people like the games I said then god of war. Can I back this up? Look at the sales. You can say sales mean nothing, but if a game sucks it wont get good sales.

God of war2: 2.45M sales on a 145M userbase....

SMG: 8M sales on a 50M userbase... Both games are good and have quality.

Please by your logic explain Madworld sales

 

 

It's an overrated black and white game, it's genre is so niche, it's way too violent, it has camera issues, it has framerate drops, the single player is only 4-5 hours long, the multiplayer sucks hard, it has no replay value what so ever.... Explained. It's only worth a rent. Too bad renting games is illegal in my country....

That's kiddy game =) seriously, target audience is 14-18 yo, and afaik Wii lacks those kind of kids. So it'd have done better on HD duo, not a lot better thanks to visual style but still.



madworld is a pretty good game but is not suited to wii audience much.

hey but if its not sold well it must be crap game right?

I think Skeeuk and Cthulhu has a point games affects the consumers more...If a company sells more console you don't get nothing out of it and only benefits the company but if the company releases more games then it benefits us gamers a lot more don't you think?

That is not how  the world works. Mario and Sonic olymipics, a horrible game, sold even more then SMG. Are you saying it's better?

 

Sales mean nothing because the problem comes down to core. There is infact no core audience on consoles, and measuring a core genre audience is almost impossible. If you sell 30 million consoles. Then the biggest game for it sells 500k. Is the game bad? You sold 30 million consoles, only saying 800k of them were RPG fans, so the big RPG only sold 500k, people who play shooters are not buying that. 360 sales are massive!!... when it comes to shooters. PS2 sales are massive!!... with RPGs and racing games.... Nintendo sales are massive!!... with platformers and now with the casual genre.

I'd have to agree actually, they put out more games unless I'm imagining it



 

LOL - Anyone can hire lots of people and spend lots of money. Making it part of a successful strategy is the difficult part.



Sony learned that the hard way.

Hmm, you're right. But... I happen to have an appeal to some Ninty and Sony games as well. Overall my gaming experience in last two years says me that 1st party Ninty efforts were way more satisfactory for me. Sure, if you just don't like Ninty games you're would be pretty happy with Sony's games, but from my point of view... sorry, Sony, you're just too slow, maybe next time. I should put "imo" so I won't get flamed =)

Ah, that's nice to hear from someone with "PS3" labled on his avatar: "best games to offer" =) Well, that's your choice, I guess...
