Game Podunk writes that there is a difference between adult games and video games that simply have mature content for games like Killzone 3 and Halo Reach.

Red Dead Redemption hits 3.3 million Netflix downloads on mobile, underscoring how subscription access drives reach over paid sales.
More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.
How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

Rockstar says the free upgrade issue affecting Red Dead Redemption Xbox 360 owners requires more time to resolve, with another update expected within five days.
I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

A detailed comparison of Red Dead Redemption on Switch 2, PS4, and PS5 shows stronger settings, better performance, and a major uplift for Nintendo’s new hardware.
Is mature content really that controversial? It seems to me that M-rated games are the ones with the massive budgets and vast sales. I just don't see that much rejection of violent video games anymore, at least not since the Bible thumpers were campaigning against GTA: Vice City.
It's getting better, but if you look at top sales number according to NPD 2009 software sales, titles that sold the most are rated E and T games (mainly Nintendo games like Mario and Pokemon), not rated M (with a few exceptions like Halo 2 and Modern Warfare 2).
I'll tell you why, the people that make them controversial lost the war with movies and music so now they move onto the next thing that can put their career in the spotlight.
Because they think its worse than movies that look even more real.
ex.Star wars its rated PG. It has shooting, gore, violence, and aliens. While Halo is rated M and it has shooting, gore(in some games), violence and aliens.
So people dont seem to mind that star wars has people get stabbed, and sliced in half; but just some shooting people go crazy over?
I have seen 4 year olds watch ALL of the star wars movies yet they are not aloud to play Halo or T rated shooters?
THINK PEOPLE! THINK!!
Answer: Because of people like you.
