Forums - Sony - Why do you people care about how much a videogame sells?

All over this site there are people so eager when  a game reaches a million or 500k. I dont understand why?

and some other have admited to buying to of the same game

Are you serious? why waste your money

VG are entertainment and you people go too far. You need to get a life

Because if it sells well then we will get more of it. If not, say la vie... I don't waste money on games that aren't good but if it is, I want more.

^ This is you!

Higher sales = More money for developers = More Games = Happier Gamers.

This is a sales website, and some people like to know how their favorite games do in the marketplace. What's wrong with that?

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

c'est la vie, people are crazy



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Why? Because we all want the industry to thrive. We appreciate all the work put into games.

Most importantly, we want our favorite games to do really well so there is more chance of a sequel.

  1. This is a sales site and you're confused that people get excited about sales?
  2. I've bought multiple of the same game, no big deal.  Take Left4Dead for example, I bought it on PC to play with friends at work and make my own maps, I bought it for 360 to play with XBL friends and achievements.
  3. Why do you care how I spend my money?
  4. Right, yes, lets go onto a gaming forum and tell people to get a life.  Show us good!

How did I miss this. I own multiple copies of games purely for collecting. I own a sealed collector's edition of Tales of Vesperia and an opened regular edition.
