@The_Last_Paladi @jts1891 That's a possibility, but still. This was the reveal for their newest console, surely they'd want to come out swinging with their most promising titles?
Instead we got Killzone, which as a series has been subject to mixed reviews. We got Knack, a seemingly childish platformer that will only appeal to certain audiences. And a bunch of CG trailers that showed no gameplay.The only game that was really promising was Infamous.
I'm a bit...wary of this. E3 is the biggest game show of the year, and it's the place you reveal your biggest titles. Yet the games revealed at E3 were mostly mediocre with few exceptions. If that was the best they had, I can't help but wonder about the quality of the games they have in store.
Maybe I'm wrong and I'll be pleasantly surprised, but who knows.
@Sythion @jts1891 Why would I? While digital sells are rising, I can still walk into my local Walmart, Best Buy, Target, etc. and find isles of CD's. The physical market is not dead or dying, as there will always be people who prefer physical copies to digital downloads.
@Sythion The music industry has been moving toward the digital realm a lot longer than gaming, and there is still a thriving physical market. So he's entirely correct.
@demonkingx5 @jts1891 @Rickchavis49 @Desynkronic @Ariost Doubt it. Gaming will be like the music industry. Digital sales will thrive, but there will always be a healthy physical market.
@demonkingx5 @jts1891 @Rickchavis49 @Desynkronic @Ariost Thing is, digital isn't always cheaper than physical copies. Let's look at Itunes. Typically, I can buy a physical album for near the same price I can buy it digitally.
Simply because a single company opted to provide cheaper goods doesn't mean that everyone will.
@Rickchavis49 @jts1891 @Richrward22 And how many of those games are newly released AAA titles? Fact is, new Triple A games cost about the same on consoles as they do on PC when they are first released, which is when most people pick them up.
