[Kingshango]

Spoiler

[Deezay]

Wow congrats to ratchet and clank.

I did NOT expect it to sell that well even as a die hard fan.

Bet that price point was a major reason for it


Now we need sly cooper and jak and daxter.

It's a shame the movie was a huge flop that got ripped apart by critics

I rather the movie be a flop than the game.
You know how that shyt usually goes if it's a game based off of a movie(Except for X-Men Origins: Wolverine. That was dope)

 

[Deezay]

It's because the PS4 is the lead system. Sony is killing gaming.

Eh I really think they dropped the ball.

R&C really could have translated well to film. Seems they cut corners everywhere and didn't promote it much.

If the movie was a success it would really help the franchise. Assets and costs were spent on the movie and game,meaning their was overlap in production costs.

The movie losing a ton of.money could potentially effect the game series.

I remember when these threads used to be a thing.

So 200k for ratchet is great and amazing, but 150k for quantum break is bad?

Considering Quantum Break probably cost several times as much to make and was supposed to be a last-ditch effort for the XB1 to try and get back in the race sales wise... yeah

Who said it was a last ditch effort for anything?

Ratchet is an established franchise with millions of sales and it was only $40. It should have sold more.

I just find it funny how you stans build these narratives and fake expectations on to the games just so you can praise one and diss the other.

Damn clowns

 

[Grand Conde]

So 150k for QB is a success?

 

[MeachTheMonster]

So 150k for QB is a success?

I don't know what they wanted or what their budget is. If being number 7 in the top 10 games sold in a month is a "failure" then the majority of games that come out "fail"

What I do know is you can't call 200k great and amazing sales, while simultaneously calling 150k a failure.
