Spidey is a clown. Send in wolverine!

That thinking is a big mistake my friend, Christmas money, it's the perfect time to get sales.. Instead of buying a console, gamers will be buying games.... A lot of games, and getting games as a gift.
--> Why would you move to a time when Gamers have dried up there funds... you really think the gamers who bought -

The New Assassin Creed,
Rage 2,
Battlefield V,
Battlefield Bad Company 3
COD Black Ops IIII,
COD MW42 Remaster
Red Dead Redemption 2,
GTA V DLC,
Spiderman 2018,
The Division 2,
The Last Of Us 2,

are going to have money left over to buy games in march 2019.... LoL -They won't even remember your game is launching.
(Even if they don't get the whole list the average gamer is getting 5 games this fall)
So if your game is not launching in 2018 your in the worst time frame ever for your game.. Early 2019 games are in trouble... I wish them the best but I can't see how that new Launch date is going to be a good thing...

Not to mention this game list for fall 2018 is so big I will have to balance time and games, because there is not enough time to get to all these games, so I probably won't be buying more games until fall of 2019... LoL

All these disagrees, but your wrong, how in the world is March not a death trap... of course launching with everyone else is not the best time, but launching later will be worst... Tell me how that's not true, who is going to stop playing COD or Battlefield to pick up new games in March..? Come on let's be serious for a second..

At least if you launch with the big dogs you have a chance of being picked up because of extra funds for the holidays, and don't get me wrong the die hard fans of the game are getting it either way, I'm talking about the casuals, they are not stopping there stock pile of games from the holidays to pick up this in March..? Tell me how I am wrong?

I don't think every game needs to try to avoid RDR 2 and Spiderman.

It's just silly to think that those games are going to cut into sales of a completely different type of game.

I guarantee you there are plenty of Metro fans that couldn't give 2 craps about Spiderman or RDR.

And plenty of people that would buy all 3 of them.

@crazy and unholy

Remember Titanfall 2? Specifically, remember when EA decided to release it near BF1 and COD? Now apply that lesson (apparently one that you both never learned) to Metro-an FPS- getting released along with BF and COD and don't forget to think like a dev- risking their hide- would, not like a risk free gamer sitting on his couch commenting on N4G while eating Doritos.

It hasn't even been a day since I was talking about people's short memories...
