"Sales tell me it was a failure"
It pretty obvious why....and it was already mentioned.
"It is about sales, it will always be about sales. Sales tell me it was a failure, how's the player numbers? or do we just the people that played it for 30 min as the metric I'd success?
Your logic is flawed
When 3 million players are playing in the first week then it changes the picture completely.
Gears 5...
Too bad their games aren't really worth it anymore. I care more for the old catalog.
"O noo it's Sony's fault!
Control also released on PC and Xbox (just in case you forgot) but it's PS4 gamers fault it didn't sell well?? (not publisher or dev or anything else)"
Isn't PS4 the one with 100 million users. You'll think with that much gamers it would have top at least the top 20. As the reason for bringing PS4 into this is because a marketing deal was made between 505 games and Sony and from the sales. You can't te...
Be wary of Gearbox they will introduce Microtransaction soon.
Shouldn't the game release first. The last of us part II isn't out yet and single-player games have no reason to have microtransactions.???? But stupid to be thanking Naughty Dog for no reason. Plus the multiplayer is not releasing at launch instead it's coming in the future. Reserve judgement for when that comes out because Naughty Dog's Uncharted 4 featured Microtransaction so expect the same. ...
"So Control bombed because Playstation owners like deals?"
That the general consensus. Care to explain why it didn't sell?
"Surely you realize had they done it your way, it’d be on GamePass for even less. The irony."
If the game landed on Gamepass it would have given Control the attention it deserved. If it wasn't for 505 games and their doggy deals with Epic games and Sony they game would have likely been on Gamepass.
Control is going to be a franchise with multiple games for 505 games. 505 games own that right for 20 years.

"Ah well, once again, utter rubbish 😀
so it's ps gamers fault ?? Where's your proof of that 😂 please provide proof / facts behind your outlandish stat...
They might as well have made it a launch title of PS5 but they have been making it for the ps4 for a year now so it would be fruitless. This game should have been out this year before the February 2020 event.
"It's probably going to be a new IP you'll only find on Sony's next-generation system, it's sort of the Finnish studio's forte...."
No, because Remedy is working on Crossfire' X's campaign for Xbox and Remedy has made a deal to publish more games for 505 games. The ps4 timed exclusive deal for Control and Epic game store's exclusivity wasn't a decision made by Remedy but the greedy 505 games. 505 games had more to gain from the Epic store...
"ms doesn't make good games. Sony and Nintendo do, ms simply doesn't."
It simply you're opinion. How is Gear 5 not a good game?
Ubisoft games are too formulaic. I can't tell the difference between The division and Ghost recon
Watchdogs 3 is not going to live up to what it shows. Ubisoft has always had great reveals but mediocre results when played.
I don't know who is in charge at Bethesda but they need to really rethink who they are targetting. I fear that Bethesda will go the way of Ubisoft where almost all of their games are service and online driven in the next 5 years
This game could have been accepted if they have a really great single play game that is released alongside the game.
The key aspect that made Fallout 76 fail is their target market. Most of the fallout players are single-player gamers ...
They have been compensated already. It isn't about sales anymore but how much gamers you can retain within the game pass subscription. With game pass being on Xbox One and PC it will increase in the millions and be a key strategy for the next gen and Xcloud.
Most of the people with common sense would have gotten the game on gamepass and will maintain that sub for other games like Blair witch, bloodstained and outer world and I can assure you with the way gamepass is going you wi...
Games pass ultimate adds the value if you want both.
So it's out in a month and there are barely any adverts for it.
The console/pc gaming market does not fit google's way of thinking. You have to be fully established to be one of the big players. And one of the most fundamental things you need is a bunch of exclusives of the launch window and stadia has none of that. This should have been delayed for at least a year.
An analysis but with amount minimal amount of breaking down. This is more of an observation.
Focus home interactive published games that big publishers wouldn't even consider.
Honestly.... it looks a bit dated.
One of the biggest issues is the size of the UI which will not be accommodating in a smaller screen

"what's your point with ps4's install base of 100M? Control has to be at least in top 20 because of the install base?
LMAO where's the logic in that. last i heard, people buy games if Games if they like it and its good. How is that the install base's fault? It lies solely on the Marketing and the game itself. its not the gamers fault if the game isnt up to their standard or worth their money. Who are you to dictate which games people should bu...
