Re: How to lose sales
A game isn't just about graphics though. That's what I keep trying to get at. I did throw in some examples of graphics between systems, but the next gen consoles will also allow for more content in the game. As I mentioned in BF3, the PC gets 2 more objectives on most maps. They get more vehicles. In MAG, they were able to… -
Re: How to lose sales
Honestly, you're probably right, since I was looking for a quick example. I know when switching between the systems, there is a very distinct difference. Not just in the clarity, but also in the details that appear on the screen. -
Re: How to lose sales
Some of the things you said is very true, but the last thing you said is very very true. It's not going to happy for a while, but it IS going to happen. My point was not that the next playstation or xbox will be or should be like that. My point is that it's silly ( in my opionion ) to not WANT or ASSUME that we should work… -
Re: How to lose sales
Maybe his example wasn't a good one, but what about this for a comparison? More here: http://www.gamepur.com/news/5547-bf3-beta-pc-ultra-vs-ps3-screenshot-comparison.html That is a SIGNIFICANT difference. To your point, graphically will it change if I'll play the game? No (obviously, since I bought it for the PS3 first).… -
Re: How to lose sales
That would be part of how to encourage people to pitch in, offer them transparency into the development of the game they are funding. For example, they could sell alpha access so that people could see the game progress through each milestone. Private beta access could be offered. A forum just for funders to get privileged… -
Re: How to lose sales
This - and add a 6-12 month delay and you'll find your real lack of PC sales. Games are marketed and retailed in such a fashion that they sell when they come out; if the title isn't available for a platform in this timescale then sales on that platform are likely to be diminished in favour of the one that got it first… -
Re: How to lose sales
God lord you are slow. I ended up finding my own facts regrading the GTA IV sales. GTA IV was released 8 months later for PC. GTA IV PC sales, 0.70mil GTA IV Xbox360 sales, 9.84mil GTA IV PS3 sales, 9.35mil For example if you take a look at the GTA III sales, 1 year later released on PC. GTA III PC sales, 0.01mil GTA III… -
Re: How to lose sales
I don't doubt the numbers, I just doubt that these are the only numbers that exists, but we can't just ignore the numbers that we have in hand because they aren't complete. I posted the numbers because they were meant to give a perspective on how bad it is. Is it really that hard to click the links and make up your own… -
Re: How to lose sales
I'd like to make a little point here - using borderlands 2 as an example. The reason being that the game was released on all 3 platforms simultaneously - and that the PC port actually had enough work put into it to be decent. according to VGchartz the sales numbers are as follows: (september 18 - october 27) Xbox: 1.7 PS3:… -
Re: How to lose sales
Anyone with decent eyes should be able to see quite a difference between my examples sitting on a couch, actually. I can easily spot the blurriness on the small version on my monitor at over a meter away. Blowing it up to a 40 inch screen would look the same at ~5 meters. And keep in mind that many of these games are…
