So Sony f'ed over the PS3 owners. Why is that not surprising? That is one reason I would never play this on either console. What time are the pack supposed to open? Anyway as for the endings I couldn't care less about the current endings. I mean I get that people don't like them, but its not like a federal case should be made of it ... Oh wait that happened as well. In anycase BIOWARE could not have asked for better free pr for the game.
Yea....because constant articles about how massive amounts of dedicated fans are outraged help a company a lot. Or that the group in protest of the company has donated $54,000 to Childs Play, a foundation for helping sick and dying kids? How many times have you heard mass outrage about a product and immediately wanted to go out and buy it? If you have, it makes sense why you think it's good PR.
It wouldn't be getting constant damage control PR announcements from Bioware staff if it was great for them.
well any publicity is GOOD publicity, a lot of people hated postal 2 and that game sold amazing after that ,
and yea i never got the angry people donating money to that cause thing, bioware is happy about that , i know iw ould be if i was bioware , it doesnt help ,
Awful in terms of postal 2 was regarding the over the top racism, violence and nudity. Everyone got curious about this unusually taboo game. Poor user reaction for superman 64 never sold more copies, because there wasn't a desire to see just how much it sucked. If someone wants to see the crappy ending, they can youtube it. I just got done reading a 2 page article about the endings and bioware's damaging PR from it on Forbes.com and I gurantee you that none of that builds loyalty nor support for Bioware.
Don't worry though, all PR is good PR right? I know Paul Christoforo would agree whole heartily. As soon as he figures out how to spell Strategy, his life will be aces again.
Confused? Here you go:
