Between now and 2025 can EA Games or Activision make something in the “Grand Theft Auto clone” genre? Perhaps revamping Godfather or True Crime

Not enough money in circulation to handle a Ubisoft vs TakeTwo in a monetization Versus
7 different SKUs for the same game vs full blown storefront in the pause menu on launch day

i don't think this is a disruptive business opportunity, anything put out to be compared would only be looked at harsher and probably lessen the value of the company that makes it. Big risk
Gas tanks you gotta fill up and all that shytProb would have toll highways in the game that you actually have to pay
Ubi GTA would be the most sterile, corporate crime-action game of all timeNot enough money in circulation to handle a Ubisoft vs TakeTwo in a monetization Versus

to truly appreciate great pizza one must’ve experienced the whole spectrum of pizza quality
a competitor is s good thing. Didn’t Microsoft just partner with Activision and aren’t there rumors of a Sony/GTA 6 partnership?
if EA had me heading the department to oversee development of this game I would start like this
hyper-realistic graphics
placement revenue from automanufacturers who want to be featured and to have ad - this will mean something stupid like cars can’t be depicted as damaged or in a negative light. oh well
we probably already have these companies on the line for Need for Speed, we will need some of that team and sone of the Godfather team
we‘re going to sell real world advertisements in game and in the online experience
^ bam that’s revenue
next … setting is a small highly detailed town that is well-populated but surrounded by vast openness (think something like Barstow or Baker, CA. we compete with Rockstar by infringing on their market share, offering more bang for buck in online experience and delivering in an annualized cycle.
borrow physics players are familiar with via Madden
somebody get EA on the line, I’ll highly motivated to get this done so I will give you 20%
the idea is to take revenue on annualized basis while Rockstar tends to it’s 10 year product cycle

Nah, you thinking small. fukk a storefront in the pause menu.
How about you pay to unpause and resume play?

Isn't that basically watch_dogs?
That’s probably the closest modern GTA-clone outside of Saints Row. Both of them mfs are probably dead

Off that first demo, I woulda been too
one of the last times I bought into hype before results, but you couldn’t tell me this wasn’t gonna be a GOAT

1000% Ubisoft always has wildly impressive first demos. Legion didn't even look that good years later lol
