I buy 95% of my games on Amazon.

The prices are good, the selection is great, and it's convenient.

Edit: Not sure if this includes Amazon, or if it is just pertaining to storefront locations (i.e Gamestop)

I don't think they include online retailers or Walmart. I think I read a few year back they make up or it with an algorithm.

"Not sure if this includes Amazon"

It does.

This industry is total bomba,almost every game except top few has flopped.
25% down from already crappy figures,lol

RememberThe3574059d ago

EA can really only sell Sports games. BF sells itself, Command and Conquer as well. Their PR is horrendous. They could have sold their fans on the changes to Dead Space but they treated them like second class citizens and now they're paying the price. Good to see. Please DICE, break free!!!

I hope this mean we get Sly Cooper 5 for Ps4 cause this sold pretty well for a game that wasnt advertised and was probably pretty low budget.

Sales figures i found on Neogaf
50k for Ninokuni which out sold DMC for both 360 and ps3(DMC is a BOMBA) :D
MGRR 65% PS3 but sold only 1/3 of Deadspace 3(stupid dudebro games):(
EOS4 sold 15k(end of the month release)
Ninja gaiden sigma 2 plus 3k(end of the month release)

I've been buying more and more games online, I bought Gears Judgment from the Microsoft Store because they threw in a free 1600 point card, which is the exact amount of the Gears Judgment Season Pass.

Newegg had the game for $39.99, a lot of online places offer great deals, that combined with a console generation that just wont end, leads to loss YOY, which isn't surprising, you cant always gain, eventually you top out.

Why Dead Space 3 Will Be the Hardest to Remake

If EA and Motive Studio plan on remaking all the main Dead Space entries, they have to change a lot of what made Dead Space 3 so divisive.

Simple, do not bother with a Dead Space 3 remake. Rather have a new entry for Dead Space.

myfathersbastard414d ago

Yeah I agree. Make a dead space 3, but have an original story/setting. They’ve proven they can do the game justice, and I think they could evolve 2 in a good direction, keeping a similar tone. I’d love s Dead Space 2 and 3 though. The remake was fantastic. Top tier remake, up there with RE2.

jznrpg414d ago

Remaking 3 would need to be a reworked and somewhat changed remake as 3 was flawed in most peoples eyes and the worst entry.

Ninver414d ago

It's the worst in the series.

Dead Space 3, A Ten Year Reunion

WTMG's Kyle Nicol:

"Was Dead Space 3 really that bad?

Well, it’s a complicated question. Dead Space 3 is undeniably the weakest of the trilogy. It’s a game that deviates so far from the original formula, that it throws a lot of what made Dead Space special in the first place out of the window. Although, where it does make up for it is one of the best cooperative shooters on the market, even after all this time. Do I recommend playing this game ten years later? Hell yes. But make sure your expectations are in the right place. It has a lot of problems that bring it down."

They need to seriously continue this ip with a new entry. Even if it's just another movie I don't care I love everything about this game.
