Even if the game only sold 1 million or 500k copies, there's still a majority that don't hate the ending.

Evidence? Oh, you don't have any?

Are you planning to challenge driden for troll of the year? I think you'd have a good chance.

I could imagine you telling him " this bridge aint big enough for the both of us "

Lol, keep hiding behind that unprovable misconception like a baby's blanket troll, whatever gives you comfort at night. 

Don't let the big nasty retakers with their legitimate arguments scare you!

He is just ignorant. Its like he expects EVERYONE of those 4 million copies to actually be in the BSN. And if they are not , he assumes that those that aren't loves it. Pure blissful ignorant little sheep.

[Icinix]

Thats not sold to consumers numbers.

Also - you can't use the total number of sales as an indicator of people who liked the game or didn't like the game. Its impossible.

Prove it.

You can't prove it just like the Retake people can't prove they are the majority.

Unless you can actually poll every single ME3 owner then this point is moot.

Not surprised the game has done well but there is still no numbers short of :

March 2012 Software Sales Chart
•1). Mass Effect 3 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) - EA - Over 1.14 Million units

and

Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg reports that Mass Effect 3 sold 943,000 units on Xbox 360, outselling the PlayStation 3 version 4 to 1.

So kinda curious what the actual number is.

I agree. If the numbers for the XBox are true then thats a flat 940,000. So asume that PC would do 150% of that which is only 1.4m sales and some 235, 000 from PS3 thats not that bad given the uproar over the game with some 2.5/6m copies sold.

Its good but its nothing to write home about so to speak ( a lot less than should have been sold) but this is all conjecture really until we get real numbers from EA. NPD is far better than VGC but not all together amazing.

Around 80k on the Facebook are unhappy with ending.

Looks like an OVERWHELMING MAJORITY loves the ending.

you are just made of fail my friend!... I actually laughed out loud a little when I saw this... followed by a face palm and slight shaking of my head.... sigh...

 Regardless of where the majority stands or how many copies it sold the only number that really matters:


isn't looking so hot for EA.

I disagree with taht actually. I think it's pretty well within an expected norm for ME3 or ME as a franchise. I doubt anyone really expected ME3 to break 3 million in the first month.

But you are right it is conjecture.

If they shipped over 4 mill units than projected probably was over 3 mill. is what im more driving at. 

[Thornne]

What number of units do they have to ship/sell before I start liking the ending? I'm still waiting for that.

The OP didn't say anything about the end, why did you even bring it up?

You don't need evidence to see the obvious. Do you have evidence to disprove this? We already have way more than enough facts to see how small your opinion is.

• Fact ME3 sold millions
• Anti Enders are a minority of 52,000 to at MOST 200,000

Do the math derp. Now, Anti enders claim.. You can't prove everyone who isn't part of Anti enders groups didn't like the ending, but you can't prove they hate it either can you? What we can do is look at history and stats. Statistics claim only 9% get online to complain.. and 90% of consumers who are happy never bother to brag how good something is on forums.

using that it does even more damage against you.

Truth is, you guys were claiming the fall of Bioware and EA, stocks dropping, game price dropped (when it was an easter sale), etc and truth WAS ME3 broke franchise sales, and the sales keep going up and up making your movement even smaller and smaller especially with some leaving.

You can show the same for WoW.

And lets not forget that includes all of EA. And if you follow the time stanp accordingly it starts to decline when SWTOR is released.

1. no you actually can't, and I have no idea what you're talking about since WoW is a product and Activision is the company, their number has remained fairly steady over the last 6 months. Actually, if you pull up the S&P 500 for comparison Activision's price has moved almost in unison, and since the S&P is usually a strong estimator for the overall direction of the market Activision has pretty much moved with the market, including recent growth. EA on the other hand hasn't. ( and you can verify these numbers for yourself with a simple google search)

2. EA structures it's game releases around quarters, there was a huge spike around a month after SWTOR came out (though since SWTOR is a bioware game also I'm not even sure what you're attempting to prove with that comment). The stock price is expected to spike after an AAA release. EA has released 2 (maybe 3 if you count the SS reboot) AAA titles in less than 4 months and has seen nothing but a decline. That's bad, on any and every level.

I don't like the ending, but I'm not cheering against Bioware. I hope ME3 sells well. I think providing alternative endings will help them increase their sales/restore the faith of their consumers.

I remain amazed that some people still think displeasure with the ending is a minority opinion. Every survey I've seen has shown overwhelming displeasure. The vast majority of fan commentary on this board and others seems to indicate people dislike the ending. The Pro-Fixing the Ending Group outnumbers the Pro-Ending Group by roughly 1 to 100. While not conclusive, the evidence so far seems contrary to Pro-Ender's claims.

Nevertheless, the validity of the arguments for the positions still matters more.

You would be delusional to actually think the PC version outsold the 360 version. The numbers for the PC are most likely around those for the PS3, maybe more.

I'm not cheering against bioware so much as cheering for the market to punish bad and/or antiquated business practices. EA/bioware was presented with a "new era" (for lack of a better phrase) problem and chose to resort to "old era" tactics to deal with it rather than actually evolving. That's plain bad business. And I can't support that clogging up markets. Market punishment will either force them to change, or provide their competitors valuable information.
