Dude, you can play it fo' realz now

Why would he want to play it? That 'game' is awful.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

:lol :lol

I agree with him for different reasons. I never liked the KOTOR-style Bioware games. Just a thing. MLB The Show is as good as you all have said though.

 

[Ridley327]

The music in that Flash game is ridiculous. :lol :lol :lol

I like Heavy Rain and even I think Costanza is on drugs.

HOW DO I SAVE JASON?

 

[Mileena]

Have any of you guys played Mega Man 10? I wanna get it but not if it's ridiculous like 9.

It's as good as FF13.

This. I beat maybe 2 levels and said fuck it. There is an easy mode

Spoiler

For bitches

Man fucking troll. Play FF13 then complain about it all you want.

 

[BigBlackGamer]

I died like 8 times on that Vanille summon shit. the game sucks even worst when I don't have lightning in my PT. sahz and vanille is probably the worst team in the history of FF games.

Oh hell no, you are not going to be hating on Mega Man.

Well, I'd hate the game too if I was terrible :lol

Annoyingly hard.

 

[BigBlackGamer]

I guess.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Oh hell no, you are not going to be hating on Mega Man.

I liked MM2 to an extent, I guess?

 

[Rewrite]

Annoyingly hard.

:lol

There's an easy mode in the game for noobs. So yeah, I guess it's not as bad as Mega Man 9.

 

[Mileena]

I guess.

Use sentinel/medic and sentinel/ravager.

:lol

I'd rather not play a game at all then play it on easy.

 

[BigBlackGamer]

I beat it. was the only fight I had a problem with the whole game. oh well.

 

[Archie]

Is that counting DLC?

If you can beat NGB, you can beat anything bro.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Fixed.

I don't believe so.

This was written in the article I grabbed it from:

Yet February 2009 was a month in which total industry revenues grew, and software revenue itself grew by nearly 9%. Some of this could be attributed to sales of higher-priced bundles – remember that Guitar Hero III selling in early 2008 had only included guitars while Guitar Hero: World Tour selling in early 2009 included guitars, drums, and microphone bundles. But in fact, the average price of software in February 2009 dropped, so the prices can't explain everything.

Somehow in 2009 the industry more than made up for a loss of $85 million in music genre contraction. With a 50% larger base of current-generation console hardware, why wasn't the same possible in 2010?

 

[Archie]

Trolling aside, RB is probably bigger than GH now if you include DLC sales.

 

[Mileena]

Trolling aside

I like how you have to say this if you want people to take you seriously :lol

u mad

Trolling aside, RB is probably bigger than GH now if you include DLC sales.

Harmonix sold 5 million tracks between November and March. That's a million a month, so $4million revenue in January-February (assuming every track is $2, which is isn't) Still 3 million off, baby. Plus GH's shitty DLC sales are probably good enough to make a bit of money. Hell, Edge told me this month Guitar Hero contributes to Activision's spectacular DLC revenue!

The average price is probably more than $2 a track because MTV touts paid downloads. For arguments sake let's say it is $3/download and the MTV PR does not include the entire month of March so that is 5 million sales in 4 months which is 1.25 million a month.

1.25 million x 2 months x $3/download = 7,500,000 + 19,000,000 = 26,500,000.

At the very least, Rock Band is nearly as big as Guitar Hero now, if not bigger.

 

[TheGreatDave]

Oh God, are you using your stupid "they're counting downloaded files, so Rust In Peace would be one big expensive download" shit? There's NO WAY they'd report it like that.

And yeah, RB and GH both sell to the same idiots now. The people Activision convinced to buy GH3 have bailed. They'll probably have similar revenue soon.

Cork copied my exact PSN comment. I just fucking pissed myself.

Rock Band continues to satisfy music fans’ and gamers' voracious appetite for rock with more than 65 million paid downloads since its launch Nov. 20, 2007.

It says nothing about 65 million songs, but paid downloads. Therefore, Rust in Peace would be considered one download.

 

[ElNarez]

HOW DO I SAVE JASON?

You can't. That'd go against the DRAMA.

Bullshit. There's no reason at all for Harmonix to boast about 65 million downloads over 100 million tracks (or whatever). Bail out.

I had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't you.

 

[Archie]

Until you provide evidence to the contrary, it is individual downloads.

While this is interesting... it would REALLY be cool to see the Development Costs for 2008, 2009, and 2010 that Harmonix and Activision put in to Rock Band and the Hero games.

Even if the Hero games have more revenue I'm positive more money was spent developing the 15 Hero games that have come out between 2008-2010 than was spent on the 5 - 7 Rock Band games over the same period.

Rock Band's Return on Investment > Hero's Return on Investment
