Re: Different reaction

In Response To: Re: Different reaction (Avateur)


: I really hope so. If they aren't getting paid to release this stuff, that
: doesn't sit right with me. Wasn't H3 the first and only time Microsoft
: Xbox went into the black? You'd think incentives to Bungie would be
: "if you produce this trailer for us, we'll give you an awesome spiff
: for it." Hell, that would probably be cheaper than paying people to
: make live-action ODST commercials or Believe dioramas. I just don't like
: feeling that Bungie's getting used out of all of this.

: But oh well I guess. I can't wait to see the Reach footage. On B.net, of
: course. I can't bring myself to sit through that show.

Well, you'd imagine there would perhaps be performance bonuses if the game does well, but then again Bungie is independent now. They weren't before.

It goes both ways. A game can bomb just like a movie, and its driven studios to close, so you have to imagine almost all the money comes from sales rather than providing hype (other wise, you'd think Duke Nukem Forever would still be going, heh)

Except in the form that Narc said. Making efforts to increase the sales by increasing awareness in turn increases the income.
Bungie won't be getting 'used' more than any other developer.
