That's because you spend months/years ripping apart any of the community's good faith (for those who still have it) with idiot remarks and decision making, and frankly, any success you find along the way just keeps you on an even-keel, which is why no one showers you in compliments because you gained nothing.

Interesting look at it, and I didn't even consider the rating, MajorLazer. But I will say GTA V has the advantage of being a proven IP, had an extra boost from PC sales, and houses online multiplayer, which, let's face it, is the reason it's still selling 8 years later because most everyone have already beat it.

Well if you wouldn't copy me you wouldn't know that. But hey, maybe bad decisions come in a set?

It's Grand Theft Auto with horses, but to each their own.

Yes, and it too was multiplatform. Wii Sports, for example, was 82 million on one platform.

I didn't say it wasn't impressive, I just chose not to scale it in my opinion. But to try to answer your question, in a sense, it just feels like cheating. I suppose I'm used to console titles being of their generation and not getting a re-release every gen since their inception, outside Tetris, of course.

So, what makes this milestone impressive to you...

But that would leave many microtransactions without a home, and someone at Take-Two will have to wait a few months as the new install base grows before getting their gold-plated shark tank bar.

In my opinion, this still feels like it would be much more impressive if it weren't a multi-platform/generation title.

For roughly 17 years we've all been arguing over this world of a "stale industry" because of mergers or acquisitions (or "consolidation").
The problem is simply the community wants the same thing and big developers/publishers are too eager to make it, typically by any means necessary as they are a company.
All and all, it's hard for developers/publishers to risk, much less consider gaming's future when monetization and franchise overreliance a...

At this overly positive rate of not needing Nintendo, Microsoft, or Sony, everyone's Steam Deck crush is going to turn out to be a man.

Fight me? "Oh, you won't hit him!"

So you loved your Switch under the assumption that a Pro version was coming, but now that it isn't you think the Steam-pal will crush it because it has the imaginary specs you wanted? Cool.
Overall, I see this "opinion" as a call for help, so I think you need to re-evaluate how you take rumors and speculation. Unless you're a Karen that's simply mistakenly given your thoughts on a vacuum and a s...

I can't help but think four men in Arlen, Texas are excited by this news.

Oh, most definitely! In fact, Zelda 2 is mine personally.

From my understanding: After Kalinske's fall out with Sega of Japan over the Sony deal, there was far less faith in Sega of America, who had basically been doing what they wanted for 4 years, so Steve Race, being sour towards Sega's decision making then on and tired of his ideas being second quessed, leapt at the chance to work with Sony and its PlayStation when they came knocking.

Race would then leave SCEA just six weeks before the big launch - rumors of that depa...

I'm definitely going to pass, but when the - arguably - worst and most divisive title in the mainline series gets an 8 out of 10, then you aren't doing too bad.

While Phil complimenting Sony's new controller is nothing new, it still comes down to developer commitment to using the technology, like it or not.
If it succeeds, then Microsoft will follow suit in some fashion, as any company who wants to simultaneously appease its fans and generate more money would.
