I say Bioshock didn't sale because It was extremely overrated and treated as if it was God's Gift to gaming, when it was nothing but a bizzare amalgamation of other good, yet forgotten games.
Now, I can't explain Halo, but Super Mario Galaxy was like the best game on the Wii (Next to Metroid Prime 3) released in 2007.
Or else games like Zack & Wiki and Okami would've sold just as much as games like Smash Bros. and Halo.
Yeah, ratings don't necessarily mean more games sold. They help during the holidays I'd assume, but it's more about what games changed a particular console, what stood out more for many of us, what came out at the right time. The first Halo, the first SSB., the first MGS, all came at the right time to be hits.
Obviously the only damn thing that matters is hype then. And a tappable developer.
But that might be just because I only read the reviews of the games I was originally interested in.
I see so many used Mass Effect copies in Gamestop. I just know it's a bunch of madden gamers pissed that the game isn't pick up and play.
