Exactly... the UK is already tiny, and then they limit it even further to the ever reducing physical sales...

Perhaps next week they can start reporting how many people rented the game from Blockbuster...

And yet now they are more consumer friendly than Nintendo and Sony... glad they learned from the disaster that was 2013 VCR Xbox..

Shipments do not equal sales (at least not pre-pandemic).

XSX has been selling a lot faster than XB1: https://www.vgchartz.com/ar...

"The Xbox Series X|S is currently ahead by 2.02 million units."
"The Xbox Series X|S has sold 8.43 million units in 12 months, while the Xbox One sold 6.40 million units....

It's already hit #3 for concurrent player count on Steam, only being beaten by CSGO and Dota 2 - and that doesn't include Xbox players or PC gamers playing through the Windows Store / Game Pass app...

Same... I know I'm going to get my ass handed to me as people start playing hardcore hours and learn the maps etc... but it's still fun!

Why is anyone even still questioning this? It feels like this and/or Starfield comes up on a monthly basis.

I am pretty interested to see what Remedy can do with a shooter game - but that really depends on what level of creative freedom they've been given.

@Nakiro Now you're just nitpicking - if they intend to launch without it, then that is the 'full game', unless coop is some kind of paid addon day 1.

Coop will follow, but Halo is still going to be fire at launch - and is clearly a good addition to GP.

That part of my statement wasn't relating to the MP but GP all up lately with Forza etc. Although the full Halo Infinite game will be on GP in under a month!

GP's recent performance + Halo MP arriving a month early is making it hard for me to resist Series consoles. Lets see if they can keep it up.

Dropping this on a Monday when we just got back to work is unfair :P

In all seriousness though, the MP betas were great and I'm looking forward to jumping into this.
GP is killing it lately, Microsoft are making it pretty damn hard for me to skip on picking up a Series console (if they were actually purchasable...)

Max Payne 1 through 3... I cannot wait.

The game has also aged very well, it’s one of the very few PS2 games that you can go back and play in 2021 and it doesn’t feel horribly outdated or with bad performance.

You mean Activision just had $60 off of you… MS and Sony only get a small portion of the sale.

Which part of my comment is inaccurate?

Also typically N4G doesn't allow articles based on random people on social media commenting on things - that is not news nor factual. Multiple articles have been failed for that reason recently. Also, what double standards?

Lumping Forza in the same bucket as GTA isn't fair... Forza is releasing new games, and the games have been getting better and better.

Rockstar are still releasing the same GTA5 game for multiple console generations now. And even if you're talking about sequel numbers, there are titles abusing this a lot more than Forza, e.g. FF, COD, any sports franchise.

There were 'rumors' online that the source files to the games were included in the PC version in a (decryptable) .pak file. Rockstar have now stated that it was made unavailable to play and purchase due to files being unintentionally included in the game:

Also one thing I noticed is, at least in GTA3, the brightness and contrast sliders appear to be inverted?

The game was unplayably dark when I started it and increasing the brightness slider didn't do much, but actually putting it to 0 made it brighter & playable...
