Can MW3 live up to its sales with handicaps?

[DrMaxwell]

Hopefully Battlefield 3 will slowly overtake MW3 :D

this isnt 1995. people will buy more then one game. especially since none of these 3 games are the same genre, or are coming out that close together.


i mean god do you buy 1 game a year?

These are big games which people will mainly focus on one at a time. You can't beat one in a week (except MW3) and play the next one. Uncharted 3 and Elderscrolls 5 should take awhile.

If call of duty wins any sort of GOTY award then it's loving fixed.

Oblivion didn't tango with Uncharted 2.

It takes two to tango though, how will this work with three.

Just because three games are going to be released in the same timeframe, doesn't mean a person can only buy 1 of the 3 games.

I probably wont get any of the 3 anyways.

I, and I'm pretty sure more than just me, am a kind of person who cannot sit there and play the same game day after day. Especially Elder Scrolls (unless they really improve the combat), and any shooter.

most gamers buy like 2-4 major titles a year. any system.
i mean i know you all think games cost a ton of money or something, but no one waits all year to only buy and play 1 game.

What if I just want to buy it because I actually like the game, not because I'm a fanboy?

I waited until 2009/10ish to get Uncharted 2 and it came out in 2008.

Error - no such thing with Call of Duty.

you are implying then that its the ONLY new game you got in 2009/10?
even if that was true (and a wasteful person), its not typical of any target market in the gaming industry.

Well I got other games in 2009 too but I didn't pay for them.

Uncharted 3 will be a better game than MW3,

holy god yes

Call of Duty's fan base is to cool to play dungeons and dragons or play as a wannabe Indiana Jones.

I have yet to see an Indiana Jones video game as good as Uncharted or a recent Tomb Raider game better than uncharted.

we should like

meet up and buy them

Well, you did go at that in a very mature way. I already preordered the game because my friends play it and I do enjoy myself while playing. I honestly don't see anything wrong with playing it. So what if it's a generic shooter, get that stick out of your ass and grow up.
