Yeah there is definitely a segment that runs out and insta buys based on gut instinct or peer pressure. There is also the silly preorder thing, an extension of metaphysical me-too energies.Great short piece on review scores versus sales.

But as someone who doesn't have a PS4 and was considering buying one just for this game, I can tell you the reviews and forum comments made an impact on me at least. We have the glowing forum comments from shooter fans who beat it in one day. Even they say it has little replay value and annoying gameplay mechanisms, and is short. And then the eloquently-written pro-reviews are very mixed. So I'm skipping this game for now.
