Great New Vegas numbers, and wow at RB3 at 15. It's not a bad game, although I'm saying this having skipped RB2. Plastic peripheral rhythm games must have achieved total global saturation.

Join my regular rants about video game value perception. Metroid Other M was $60 and Shadow Complex was less than $20. Boxed SD game compared to Digital Download HD game.

So that tells us precisely fuck all. Thanks Anita!
Here's hoping Pachter or USA today pulls through with HW numbers again. MS presser will probably have at least Fable, 2k, and Fallout numbers. I don't think we'll be getting non-DS numbers from Nintendo this month.

Metroid Other M is now an SD game when running on 480p.
I'm backing the fuck out of here... :lol
May come back when more numbers come in, and less insanity is in the thread.
Happy for New Vegas, of course. In a totally not-objective, it's my personal GOTY kind of way. Hope the sales keep on through the holidays.
Limbo's a nice $15 game, but let's wait for Retro's game to come out before you start declaring it a better value for your money, okay?
too much!!!

No shit? What's the problem?AlphaTwo00 said:
If anyone does not like the Wii games then they dont need to buy it. simple as that.
For me i will buy the downloadables and the wii games as long as they entertain me.
well i dont think games that scored above 8 on major gaming sites can be considered mediocre.
also dont forget that one of the best sellin games last year is a boxed 2d platformer
if they had released that for 15 dollars nintendo would have lost hundred millions of dollars.

Personally I enjoy seeing full retail editions of these old platformers still, though there is some truth to the fact that it can take a little more justification to sell them at that price when really, really good, equally well presented titles are coming down constantly off of Steam, XBL, etc.
I don't think that says much about the genre or style, LBP (although, I think it's a piss poor platformer) really pushed something with effort and feature set. I think the main issue is that Other M and Epic Yarn are woefully mediocre games.

Oh sweet
We're arguing about video game value
All games that I don't personally like should be a dollar

Ok, at least Fable 3 will make a profit. However, this should be the end of the franchise.EviLore said:

I personally believe that Shadow Complex was probably worth more than $20. I would have paid $40 for it. If playtime = value, Geo Wars 2 would have been worth at least $200 to me.
It is when the price expectation for DD games hits the $5 and below zone I get really concerned with peoples concept of value. 5 games of Daytona USA (which would be 15 minutes of play) is $5 in the arcade.

580,000 sold in it's first month and it's the end of the franchise? What is Lionhead going to make to bring home the bacon, Milo?

Wii Party missing is very strange, expected it to start off slowly with a few hundred thousand at the very least.

Interesting. I still think they should give Fable a rest or set the next one in the future.Jtyettis said:

I have nothing against Fable, it's just that I wish it made a radical change for the future games.

God I hate this new NPD. What an utterly meaningless stat in the grand scheme of things.
