jumping from 96 to 260 is.
Plus you have to consider the other games you mention outsold Crackdown by millions. There are far many copies out there in circulation.

Today, crackdown is going for roughly $23 shipped

KurrptSenate 06-12-07 09:54 AM

thats hardly a flood/deluge by any ones standards

Michael Corvin 06-12-07 12:32 PM

Exactly. Crackdown sold over 1 million copies. I'd say it is sitting pretty sweet if only 260 made it back on ebay. Even if you triple that for trade-ins it is still a paltry amount.

RichC2 06-12-07 01:01 PM

so mmconhea was wrong about a game he/she never actually played, big surprise.

KurrptSenate 06-12-07 01:07 PM

well yea

whenever you make generalizations about a specific genre and game within that category, you run that risk

I like how it's mmconhea's mission in life to see that Crackdown fails. I wonder why the intense hatred for such a great game.

That's what I don't get.. It's like he's waiting for auctions to end so he can post results to the "online message board of DVD-obsessed members who go as far as to mock up their oen DVD-cover art."

Who friggin cares!?!? I think he just wants everyone to say "OMG You were SOOOO right!!! I guess this game really does suck!"

KurrptSenate 06-12-07 02:38 PM

well, trying to ostracize others based on subjectivity usually has the opposite effect, especially when you KNOW not everyone agrees with you


if anything, he should have tried to target specific "flaws" in the game.

Which is hard to do when you haven't played the game. :D2:

KurrptSenate 06-12-07 02:57 PM

precisely


he was really doomed from the start

I played it, but good try

I played more than an hour fo shooting drug dealers to collect orbs
wow, i'd explain more flaws, but that's all there is to the game.
can't wait for Crackdown 2 so I can do the exact same shit for another 4 hours. Hey maybe they'll have some boses that aren't just like everyone else you shoot in the game (with a larger health bar).

And I right because the price went from 35 to 20 in one week.
$60 to 20 and the game hasn't been out for 6 months.
HAHAHAHAHAH

KurrptSenate 06-13-07 08:25 AM

it will go back up in a week or 2

locking because people can't realize that personal opinions are always valid and don't require flaming.
