I didn’t know it was selling like that

It’s a hell of a franchise though

Dudes will be like 'most of the sales were for less than retail' like it's a gotcha... but then stan a system that doesn't even try and sell games at full price, and even if you extrapolate the cost of GPU across even a limited number of games played per year for your fee, literally zero games on GP correlate to a $70 price tag.

Like... it's an own if most of HZD wasn't sold at full price but it's a flex if literally nothing MS have put out in 3 years moves units at any price besides $free.99?

Make it make sense

And i mean, even at the end of the day horizon forbidden west is still 70 dollars. So it will out earn zero dawn by the end of the year

I’m looking at the numbers you posted.

First is at 24 million.

This one is at 8.6

If the first picked up all those sales after the PC release, then presumably this one would need a similar trajectory.

Don’t know why these things are so difficult for you

Yeah because it’s going to stay at 8.4m forever. Clown

Xbots keep telling us Gamepass is the future and Sony should do the same. This is why

So was ratchet and clank, why hasn’t that sold over 8 million copies?

70% of HZD sales were at way less than retail.

This ain’t news though. Most of these games don’t get completed in the launch window and most sales pick up later on.

That just tells us a few things:
1. Games are generally over priced
2. Most gamers don’t feel the need to buy games day 1
3. It’s viewed relatively well or has been patched well if sales continue over time.

Didn’t utilize enough of the SSD

because not every adult wants to play a game made for children

and not many children are affording a 500$ console

please dont be this dumb ... dont compare rachet and clank to horizon or god of war

Most games don’t sell that much way after the first year or so.

Just commenting on how sony makes it to these huge numbers.
