ICO and SOTC are two of the greatest games ever made. Trailer could have shown nothing but a rock, and yet I'd still be hyped.

Quote from: Legend on Jun 02, 2015, 10:41 PMUm isn't it against the forum rules to talk about randos like rhymes with sewen? I'm not a mod fyi. Also why would being a successful businessman make anyone inherently better at understanding the game market?


Oh and mowen isn't just an investor/stock-holder.
It's a grey area I think.  
As mowen isn't a member, and he's not being severely insulted, and "mowen" isn't being used to circumvent the profanity.
So I think no.

Regardless, I think it would be better if I just stop the mowen talk.

I forgot we changed the rules ;)

"Insults: Do not severely insult people. This includes forum members and non forum members. Celebrities and well known public figures however are exempt. General jabs and the like are usually ok."

and

"Privacy: Respect the privacy of other members. If you find out something personal about a member that is not common knowledge, do not post it without the member's express consent."

Feel free to talk about Kowenicki guys. Just don't post his business name, or start flat out insulting him.

Oh, so as long as I'm not insulting him or say something personal, it's okay.

Quote from: Pezus on Jun 02, 2015, 10:53 PMNo, he actually has quite a bit of understanding but his bias clouds his judgment way too often.
Ah, I see. I vividly remember him claiming that price is the deciding factor for what console sells more, but in actuality, it is a combination of multiple variables.

That was just his bias talking because he hoped a price cut for XB1 to the same price as PS4 or less could have it selling more.

Ah, I see. I remember him getting quite bitter when people called him out on his 95% statement.

i prefer making fun of the wisdom of 13 vs 33 thread

gamrConnect Forums - PS4 and ONE.  The wisdom of 33 countries versus 13.

QuoteI have just had an interesting to and fro with a couple of posters as to the merits of the distibution strategy of both PS and Xbox for their new consoles in this launch period, namely 33 countries v 13 countries.

 Their view was that a sold console is a sold console.  It doesnt matter where it is sold.

 My take was that it is better to serve the seasonal increased demand in markets such as the USA than emerging console markets such as the middle east and some parts of europe where the xbox isn't even out yet.

 In other words an extra 20,000 sales in the US, where demand is insane (and you risk losing out to a competitor if no stock) is better than those sales going to Russia or the UAE for example where the option buy a ONE instead doesnt exist.

 

 Summary.  My view is that the PS4 is spread to thin and they should have concentrated on the main markets where there is actually some competition.
