>all those unsold copies of sunset overdrive at toys r us
Why won't this exclusive sell well?
no one has an Xbone
the people that have Xbone are just people that are too poor for PC
...
I'll be clear.
It was free a year ago on xbox.
Every xbox player owns it
It is basically the only game that tempted me to get a BONE, but it seems to exist in a vacuum.
>Why won't this exclusive sell well?
Xbox gamers only want Call of Duty, Gears, and Halo. There simply aren't enough Xbox gamers with niche tastes to support something like Sunset Overdrive.
That, and the only people who buy an Xbox are retard normies who only play COD, Fifa/Madden, and Forza. They don't play real games, so fun games are lost on them.
Yeah yeah yeah whatever fuck your topic
What I'm really interested in is when the Toys R Us liquidation sales begin? If I invest in Lego sets and resell them for retail online I could make fucking BANK.
Seriously considering taking out a personal loan if the deals are good.
Fuck bitcoin invest in Lego
>no one has one
>the people that have one …
When will those end up buried in a landfill, and how long before it's uncovered?
God, I love this game so much.
im pissed that they put the cases on them like this because shit was so easy to steal
>Got it free on one of those freek Gold deals
>Played probably 4 hours worth
>It's so fucking boring that I can't even force myself to pretend I'm going to get around to finishing it
It looked so nice, but as a game it was just so fucking shit. Just so much dumb random garbage to do, but they couldn't even make the central mechanic fun.
I got an Xbone for free in a raffle. I literally just play Xbox 360 games on it (although, often).
Sunset Overdrive is a fun game but almost nobody knows it existed. It'll be a hidden gem on a console full of nothing some day.
its a decent game, basically infamous but it controls slightly shittier. also good god the humor is fucking terrible, it makes bulletstorm look like seinfeld
you nigger
Exclusives just straight up don't matter to the public
The console they buy is determined what their friends have and they use it to play Call of Duty/ Battlefield and Madden/Fifa, accompanied by maybe Asscreed here and there
Bloodborne sold what, 2 or 3 million copies?
>tfw gaming PC and Xbone
>Xbone literally exists for no other reason than so my GF can watch YouTube makeup tutorials and gossip
She sometimes uses it for Netflix too.
I have an Xbox One because it's a convenient media center and my achievement ecosystem has been with Xbox since 2006.
It doesn't help that it's an utter pile of shit.
Yeah and it's on Game Pass I think also. I still haven't played it properly. Not sure what the praise is about. Didn't feel drawn in for the hour or so of playing it.
/thread
Fun game. Like a Tony Hawk and saints row hybrid. Deserves a sequel.
>It doesn't help that it's an utter pile of shit.
It's really not
I wish I had gotten a PS4 or a Switch, because at least they have exclusives, and one or two of them look fun.
did they fix the unskippable cutscenes yet
Because both games are old as shit and SO was free and is on GP.
Toys r Us aren't marking down Lego sets because they know the resell value. Maybe 10-20% off max. Amiibo is being marked down considerably though at some stores. A lot of the unsold games are old Wii U and DS games. Some of those haven't been marked down yet despite being shovelware.
It is. It's an awful game from top to bottom. There's literally nothing good about it. The gameplay itself is just dogshit. Like a really bad Jet Set Radio. The story/world/characters/""""comedy""" are all retarded, cringe worthy shit - like Poochie level.
And the art style is about 15 years too late.
The game sucks. You'd have to be a fucking tasteless brainlet to find anything of merit in it.
Yeah but you are browsing what's ostensibly a video game image board in your free time, that's not what normal people do
>no one has an Xbone
besides the millions of people you literal retard
It's better because I don't want some little kid messing up the cases with their chocolate fingers. This is why I buy physical games online because they come straight from a warehouse most of the time in pristine condition.
This. It's a fairly fun game, not the most indepth, but a laugh if you want to fuck around.
Think I can play the market with any of those other products? Cause if they're gonna Jew me on that Danish Gold then I wanna have a backup.
>tfw all those unsold copies of sea of thieves in six months postings
The flaw in this thinking is that there's going to be tons of discount toys on the market because other people with more resources have the same idea as you. I can guarantee you that there are people and companies negotiating to buy unsold TRU stock in bulk right this instant, if they haven't done it already.
Don't invest too much into this, I've succesfully sold stuff bought in going out of business sales before but the profits honestly were mediocre and you need to know exactly what to buy.
>The only people who buy PS4 are retard normies who only play COD, Fifa/Madden, and God of Soy
This post LITERALLY can explain Sony this generation
fuck off retard
This. It's just not worth it unless you want a few things to have for yourself and family. All that effort in fuel and time too.
Bigger question: Why did they stock that many copies of Sunset Overdrive? They basically got scammed by Microsoft.
I literally wanted to buy an Xbox One but all my friends and family decided on PS4, a couple of them because they thought Destiny was a Sony exclusive.
I figured overall it didn't matter one way or another, but I look back and I feel like I dodged a bullet.
>Toy store chain liquidated
>Feign surprise when all inventory of game in store piles up for on sale
Sup Forums in a nutshell
Because Xbone owners don’t understand it. It’s sad because it’s the only worthwhile Xbone exclusivd
>Microsoft
You answered your own question. As much as we take the piss out of them, M$ is still one of the most profitable companies to ever exist
But Danish Gold...
Seething.
What about video store that went bankrupt?
They had criterion blue-rays dirt cheap
Who the fuck would buy it from Toys R Us?
Expect 10 percent sales for weeks.
Grandmas shopping for little Timmy seeing this overdrive orange juice colorful adventure
t. Triggered Xboners
Fell for the marketing hype.
It has good ratings, but then again only like 5 people own an xbone. And 4 of them are Bill Gates
>Seething
If telling the truth hurts then so be it,Sony is the NEW dudebro console this gen.
Only Sonybro dick slurpers would disagree,you guys literally took all the Xbabies,Chads,and retards at the start of the gen.Don't believe,check your TOP ten played games list sperglord.
The Overmeme descends.
i got my copy used for $5 and wouldnt have enjoyed it at all if spent $20 on it so that makes sense
The EU is single handedly funding 90% of all FIFA sales
>they basically got scammed by Microsoft
So did everyone who bought a Xbone.
Don't even expect good sales on LEGO, TRU knows the market value of LEGO toys and considering that they need to pay off all their debts they are going to try to squeeze every cent they can out of their merchandise.
My experience from this actually came from a video store (Blockbuster Mexico, Mexican moms love dragging their tech savvy sons into their shitty entrepeneurial schemes apparently), if you can find collector's items then go for it but otherwise leave the DVDs and blu rays be, by the time the big sales start only bargain bin tier trash will be left unless you wanna camp outside the store or something which I personally feel is kinda pathetic for how little money you are making, unless it was something I wanted for myself I wouldn't do that.
Go for cheap good video games, older games like The Witcher 3 or GTA V that still sell well today. I bought a copy of GTA V for myself during that sale for not even 20 usd, played it, resold it used, and still made a profit. Don't worry if it isn't the deluxe or goty edition, people are fucking stupid and will gladly the version without the dlc, even games like Destiny that need it
No shit I'm a triggered Xboner. What a piece of fucking shit. I'm never buying another Microsoft console after this. Might actually go to Sony or even a fucking Nintendo next gen.
>game openly makes fun of CoD and other, similar, shooters in advertising
>people wonder why it sold poorly on the console basically made for CoD and other, similar, shooters
Firstly. No one has a fucking Xbone, the numbers MS keeps releasing are in store retailer units.
Second. SO is a middling open world game filled with really, really awful writing and the same enemies over and over. Traversal mechanics are too loose and forgiving for be rewarding. Game had a chance, but it’s just so fucking boring.
>the majority of console owners funded the majority of game sales
Realy makes you think.
Too bad the writing is shit but the gameplay is great and the weapons are fun and diverse. Needs more tits though!
>even more seehing
PS4 is the new dudebro console becuase there was no other option for dudebros to buy.
You’re competing with all of the ToysRUs stores that are closing down. That’s a shitload of inventory out there.
You’re not going to make bank from this sale.
>A single region is responsible for enabling EA and their jewy ways
Really makes you think.
Don’t talk about second son like that I will have you know it’s one of the greatest ps4 games ever!
>game is boring and shit
>people wonder why a bad game sold poorly
Well, actually they don't I guess.
Sunset Overdrive is a relic from when One had exclusives. These days every Microsoft "exclusive" is on Windows - Sea of Thieves, Forza Horizon 3, Gears of War 4, etc, with full achievement integration and crossplatform play. So there's literally no reason to have an Xbox One anymore unless you just can't afford a good PC, which has all the same games but better.
He didn't say anything about infamous
Youre acting as if EU isnt the biggest, most populated vidya consumer market.
>PS4 is the new dudebro console becuase there was no other option for dudebros to buy.
As long as we're both in agreement,then don't ever peddle this lie again as long as we're in this generation at least.
Just further confirmation that consoles and video games are toys for children and shouldn't be played by anyone.
It's not a lie, the PS4's install base is 3x the Xbox One and it's got support in Japan so it doesn't ONLY have dudebro games and dudebro gamers.
Persona 5 sold more copies than Sunset Overdrive
>Xbone
>EVER having exclusives
Sunset Overdrive is literally the only exception.
>For Fifa
Yes it is the most biggest populated vidya consumer market of a faggot fairies kicking a ball for 2-3 hours only to have the game end 0-0 with the ceremonial riot afterward
I think your mixing up multiple posts as being from the same person.
>want a physical copy of sunset overdrive
>Only copy I've seen was like four years ago
>I bought a bone last December
Tough times being an idiot in Podunk
I'm too dumb for pc
EU is a shit market, even if you manage equal sales than the USA (which never happens), you pay 3 time the taxes so it generate no incomes.
Her seven years old son Jarice also plays GTA on it
that's not that much, games are good "units/storage volume" value, even if you get a couple hundreds extra it's not a big problem for a big store. that takes less space than 10 star wars lightsabers.
>toys r us
>my GF
normies leave
>the PS4's install base is 3x the Xbox One
>Persona 5 sold more copies than Sunset Overdrive
Barely, and that the point.
Xbone exclusive have a better attachment rate.
