[QUOTE="-D3MO-"][QUOTE="hiryu3"] [QUOTE="-D3MO-"]I have not seen one website hyping this game...hell the games been out for a week and GS is refusing to review it. UT3 for PS3 and even for PC is getting literaly no expsoure. Poor Epic. Danthegamingman
Yet another average gamer busting with excitement over knowing more than 2 multimillion dollar companies. This thread isn't destined to fail. It failed before he even posted it.
Dude...has UT3 gotten even 1/8th of expsoure os Gears of War did?...1/10th?...no...bearly and respectable sites even have a review for the game...no previews....no features...no nothing.....UT3 just came out a couple weeks ago on the PC and last week on the PS3...and nobody really gives a crap.
And then I see zero advertising for the game...now I don't know if this is Midway's or Epic's or Sony's part but lets face it Ads make sales, I saw at least 4-5 GeOW ads days before the game came out on various channels...UT3....haven't seen a single ad for the game...and my TV is tuned to Comedy Central, Spike TV, etc....channels where you would see video game ads.
So yeah...
Microsoft did an excellent job advertising Gears of War and this is one of the main differences of Sony and Microsoft. Gears was an exclusive for X360 and MS advertised the crap out of it and created incredible public awareness. UTs is a times exclusive for PS3 and Sony don't give a crap and are instead running Blu-ray PS3 ads at the moment, probably expecting Midway to advertise it. IMO Sony does a p*** poor job advertising their exclusives.
They do not have the co-marketing agreement Epic and MS had. It would be illegal for Sony to advertise for Midway and Epic. So yeah, they're expecting Midway THE PUBLISHER OF THE GAME to market it, like what we do in the real world.
Next time throw in your 2 cents when you actually have a clue.
