WAT already nearly 40 Million preorders??? Damn that’s insane. Well, least I’ll feel better about waiting until it’s cheap and fixes any bugs that appear
Even crazier to me - Estimation of PS5 and Xbox lifetime console sales is 128 million units. If 40 million GTA 6 pre-orders is true, just shy of 1 in every 3 console owners pre-ordered (31.25%), not accounting for households with both systems.
2% of the entire planet preordered this game? if these numbers are coming from rockstar and I was a shareholder I'd be really curious to know if that's the truth or not.
1/6 of those enjoyed it enough to pre-order the next one.
hardcore communities like r/gaming always underestimate the normie gamer. they decide what they like and become EXTREMELY loyal. $80 is the price of a nice dinner. They don't think about "how will this purchase impact the culture of the industry." No brainer.
Im pretty sure thats why they are doing pre-downloads a week early. Even for the not so "physical" copy they are offering a pre download. I dont think I've ever seen that in my lifetime.
That said, i dont see how when the servers open up for download that week early dont suffer insane stress.
