Reboot the series and relaunch it with a game titled: SAINTS ROW: A NEW POPE

This study should only concentrate on new IPs. Established franchises from big name devs will sell irrespective of demos. Also need to correlate demo affect to critical response. Do all game sales suffer from demos or only terrible ones? Games industry will never progress ot next level if it keeps relying on such half assed research.

@DudleyDawson101 @the_requiem Actually YOU have no idea about what am talking about. Am talking about the hypocrisy of the guy when he mentions "useless numbers" by pointing out how they talked about 5billion transistors during their May21 reveal. I did NOT go into actual comparison of specs.

@deathstream I'd say key quote is where he talks about "useless numbers" when MS is the one who gloated about number of transistors in XB1. Also, going by the quote you mentioned the assumption is that Sony hasn't optimized every component for performance.

Yeah, Sony went ahead and published useless numbers like GDDR5 RAM they have, GPU specs etc. While MS talks only about useful and relevant numbers like 5billion transistors. This sounds like a case of sour grapes and implied admission that they got weaker system.

I think MS has forgotten a very basic principle of capitalism: Market/Consumers determine value of everything. For someone who isn't interested in "over delivered features", price is too high. Not everyone is looking for a "All in One" and to those guys you're not over delivering value, you're making them pay extra for useless stuff. It would be like charging $400 for Wii coz you're giving 20 shovelware titles free.

@omar_q Would love to hear your argument about how you justify online checks. You're so strung up on MS BS about how mandatory online makes experience better that you don't even realize that exactly similar advantages are there on a system that doesn't have mandatory online. Remember, just coz PS4 is "Online Mandatory" doesn't mean it isn't "Online Capable". Services like 300,000 servers in cloud to render your persistent world can be done even on PS4/PS3/X360/PS2/WiiU.
