Hey BLOF and LGM (and anyone else who voted SMG2) if Super Mario Galaxy 3 is made, do you think it will be a cash grab?
 
Re: Which product do you think is cash grabby?

i doubt there will be a third, though
 
Re: Which product do you think is cash grabby?

That depends

Will it be the Half-Life 3 the freaking awesome finale of the Galaxies with vasts of improvements over Super Mario Galaxy or be exactly the same, boringass game with many questionable design choices and artificial padding with slightly improved stuff like Galaxy 2?

That would mean that it never comes out before the second coming of the messiah though.
 
Re: Which product do you think is cash grabby?

That would be a good thing, really.

most of the other products on this list aren't cash grabby cause they're either not mandatory in your everyday life, actually rather cheap, or simply a video game that you don't have to waste your money on if you don't want to

personally i really don't understand why super mario galaxy 2 is on this list, it's rather innocent when it comes to money

Um, they're cash grabby because of questionable business practices that try to milk money from the fans. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is as bad as New Super Mario Bros. 2 and every other sequel that required minimal effort to create.

by your logic, anything is a cash grab

Well, no. I don't even know how you got to that conclusion. There is a line: one is actually caring about the product you want to sell to your customers, actually making a sequel or at least making it stand out from the previous game; the other is just capitalizing on the success on the previous project with minimal effort and then hawking it out as a new separate game (and what's even worse is that in Super Mario Galaxy 2's case, the professional critics don't even touch that flaw).
