@zeromous, I tried checking PC sales on Wiki I don't see a listing, care to provide a link? I got my numbers from the Wiki page for Lineage.
What are you talking about I can't have it both ways?! You're saying SC1 can't be popular when it first released and at the present time? When in fact that CAN BE true, just at different levels. Besides, I was talking about SC1 the game in popularity for when it first came out & SC the FRANCHISE for popularity today. People are salivating for the release of a new game in the FRANCHISE.
I'm not saying TV shows are a recent development, they've been around at least since 2003. TV shows are as much popularity for the FRANCHISE as they are for the original game.
You disagree SC1 was initially panned? Go research it then and you will find out when they showed the game to the press at E3 it was ridiculed.
So now SSBB is a niche title? Yet it's predicted to sell more than SC2, 16 million (and more realistically will likely sell near 10 million). You're generalizing sales of core games on Wii to PC, saying that the same audience that is so into the Wii makes up the people who will or will not decide to play SC2. That's wrong. The Wii & PC are to different beasts. Those interested in SC2 are core gamers, not the casual audience the Wii is marketed to.
Your subtle insults are not attractive either.
I'm not saying WoW converts are going to turn to SC2 in mass. Blizzard has defined itself as a quality developer more and more over the years. It's their reputation & IPs they have built up. It's NOT that WoW players are going to be interested in SC2.
I already clearly explained where the growth will come from. And we are only talking 25% growth compared to a 10 year old game.
It's actually the complete opposite I am being logical and you're trying to insult, make untrue correlations & connections about what I am saying, posting false numbers for the & of growth needed, etc etc.
I have not based Blizzards popularity based on WoW, I referred to that as part of their popularity and only mentioned that briefly in 1 post! What did I have 1 sentence mentioning WoW. WOW keep posting false statements about what I've actually posted and tried to show with clear reasoning.
