General Gaming / 2011--Big Game Flops
« on: August 12, 2011, 03:47:31 AM »
Rough year for alot of new games where's a few that I see:
Shadows of the Damn (Xbox/PS3) didn't even break 100K between two platforms and two regions. Feel this is going be the end of Grasshopper. Not sure if they have a publisher for Lollipop Chainsaw but I can't see EA fitting the bill for this one.
De Blob 2 (WII/360/PS3/DS)didn't break 100K will all platforms and two regions. Funny little title but I feel it's the end fo the series. Another platform hero that's going be sitting the bench along with Bonk, Toe Jam & Earl, and Spyro.
Capcom released two both on the DS,Okamiden and Ghost Trick--didn't expect much from neither titles myself but WW numbers place both games selling 1/4 million each.
Fear 3 --barely broke 1/4 million as well. It's a shame the series only went downhill from the begining.
Duke Nukem Forever-- 800K which is good but not when you consider how many years it took for them to develope. I bet this one is going set the record books in terms of revenue lost. You can always consider it a tax right off.
Those are my finds and I bet there's more to come, please feel free to add your picks for 2011.
