You guys are crazy. SMG deserved to sell way more than it did.

As for games that I don't really enjoy that sell like crazy, the biggest would be the Gran Turismo and Grand Theft Auto series.

Hates Nomura.

I don't get the correlation between what a game sells and what it "deserves" to sell. What exactly makes a game deserving to sell? If it didn't deserve to sell, then it wouldn't.

This.

Similar to "everything is worth what ts purchaser will pay for it", we shouldn't personally decide that since IN MY OPINION a game is not worthy, everyone else who disagrees is stupid.

The halo series (ANOTHER FPS bringing absolutely nothing new to the table)

and

Madden games

I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?
