a sequel doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing. i think that Ken Levine would almost do something in the vein of Bioshock (kind of like what he did with system shock - bioshock, or like ico - shadow of the colossus).
Bioshock isn't outselling Metroid Prime 3 by much (per capita). It's about 1/8.5 vs. 1/10.

what? BioShock 360 version has sold over double the copies that MP3 has.. you might need to go see a doctor to get your eyes checked..

How the heck is a publisher being happy with how well the game is selling and wanting a second one a bad thing?? Also developers I am sure are pretty happy with the sales also. Developers are not doing this because they want to put a big smile on gamers . No they want to make money[QUOTE="mdisen2"]Bioshock isn't outselling Metroid Prime 3 by much (per capita).

*sigh* Are you kidding me? First of all, Metroid Prime 3 hasn't released in Europe yet (that accounts for over 400k Bioshock copies). Second of all, Bioshock has been out a week longer. Third and last of all, the Xbox360 has 2 million more units sold in America than the Wii. That all equals to: "Bioshock isn't outselling Metroid Prime 3 by much (per capita)". My eyes are fine, your ability to interpret information logically isn't.

Developers are not doing this because they want to put a big smile on gamers . No they want to make money You're confusing the developers with publishers. Generally speaking developers (at least premier developers like Irrational) are more about the game than sales numbers, they're going to make the game they want, not what 2K tells them to. A good example of this is the recent Bungie-MS split, rather than staying where the money is Bungie wants to make some new IPs instead of riding the Halo train to payday after payday. Obviously developers want to make money, but its not usually their primary concern when they reach a certain level of success.[QUOTE="mdisen2"][QUOTE="Cedmln"]See hermits?

World of Warcraft.
Bahaha he just pulled out WOW on your ***. Pc gamers are so cute, I just want to pinch all their little cheeks
Wow has brought in more money than Halo 3 and Bioshock combined.
See hermits? This is why people say consoles are better than PC for video games.Cedmln
then how come bioshock pc was much harder to find than when it first came out? or why the pc collectors editon sold out a week before the 360 version or why hl2 has sold more than halo2.

You are right developers prefer to make games they enjoy making but this is not the whole starving artist thing. make what they want and sales do notmatter. You mentioned Bungie so going by them I am sure they have a truck load of employees and all these people need to be paid. Developers by far prefer to make games they like. They also really prefer to make games that gamers will like so that way it sells. Games cost way to much to not worry about sales.[QUOTE="Sir-Marwin105"]PBSnipes

I agree. The plasmids got boring after awhile, the hacking was just irritating and repetitive and finally the guns had no "oomph" to them.
Interesting story, interesting backdrop. It dragged on too long if you ask me.

Do you understand that while there have been 11 million Xbox 360s sold - there are over 13 million Steam users? That's 2 million more Steam users alone than 360s sold - there must be at least another million who play PC games exclusively who don't have a Steam account.

Still talking about this old game, lol. Damn I guess halo 3 didnt take your mind off this game yet.

Yes, I'm sure you know what the developers want.
lol, first you make thread about MP3 flopping in sales then you make another glorifying Bioshock. Why not just make one thread.cobrax80
Because it was pointed out in his other thread that MP3 was selling about as well as Bioshock in the US based on numbers of consoles sold. So he makes a new thread which uses the worldwide sales of Bioshock. Extremely pathetic.
Well over 85% of all copies sold were the 360 version. Dealing with patches, drivers, updates, stupid rootkit-like installers...why do that when you can just open the case, and pop it in your 360 and just play the thing with no hassles?V_Isle
we don't know that. digital distribution isn't counted in those reports.

BioShock seems to have longer legs, that's it.
