Better games != better sales

[Deepak]

From magicbox:

THQ has revealed its software sales figures in the financial report for this year:

Full Spectrum Warrior - over 1 million units
The Incredibles - over 4.5 million units
The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie - over 2.5 million units
WWE SmackDown! vs Raw - over 2 million units
Finding Nemo - over 2 million units
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - over 1 million units

Best game in the list (FSW) sells least.

well it just shows what is the audience that buys games the most

 

[Qroach]

It's also the most complicated game in the list. meaning it appeals to a smaller audience. Even more, it's the only one in the list that isn't a licensed material.

Still 1 million units is great sales. What's wrong with that?

The parents, thinking their children will enjoy crap games like these instead of games like GTA or God of War, with the gore and the gratuitous sex?
Or the parents, trying to keep their children away from games which feature gratuitous violence and sex, like GTA or God of War?

Heh, or maybe kids actually have fun with those games?

the point is when you are a child your into colorfull childish things . When your older (And didn't mature properly ) your into voliently childish things .

Kids will allways buy more games as they get thier toys from thier parents where as the adult market has rent and other important things to pay for

IMO, you just can't teach kids about hookers soon enough. Especially when it comes to beating the fuck out of them and taking your money back. HAHA, stupid whore!
