@Montana:

With the commercial they put up, they could just have put a cartridge with just a puppy pickture inside the game... I wouldn't mind as much, as long as they actually showed the game... It's one step above false-advertising.

BTW, what about Halo 3? Do you consider it "hardcore"? Well almost everyone at my school plays it, and they are nowhere near "hardcore". Halo 3 had a huge marketing campaign, and got many casual gamers to buy it. Same w/ CoD4.

As I remember, the Halo Wars commercial was entirely CGI. Does that mean that it was a bad game and that Microsoft was trying to deceive people?

And why are you asking me about Halo 3, as if you think I give a crap? I at least hope you've apologized to your mother since you last wrote this thread.

At least the CGI was in the game as a cutscene. None of the stuff in that Dogz commercial was in the game. I garuntee it. But no, I don't think that commercials should be allowed to be completely in CGI. Anyone remember the big Madden '06 hype for 360 when they showed the completely CGI commercials? Nobody liked it when they opened up the game (not me), and got less than what they were expecting by far...

If NMH got more any advertising, than it could easily turn out a nice profit... but no...

Also, I didn't call her stupid, just the game. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's a stupid quick-buck shovelware game, and that's what I said...

So you are familar with the Petz research and development process? Market research? How much was the advertising budget? How much did the whole thing cost in total? How many Petz games were developed?

It actually isn't a shovelware game. I've seen it and the graphics are halfway decent. I'm willing to guess that it cost more money to make than No More Heroes. No More Heroes is a very low budget game.

^ The DS one? Really? It's a bunch of 2D dog faces. I already posted a video [in this thread]...

I wasn't talking about the DS one. I was talking about the ones on the Wii.

Well, this was for DS... I've heard the Wii one was good, so I have no quarrels with that one... for now at least...
