And why don't you think that this, on the contrary, will lead them to the idea that you can continue to release ports of games that have financially exhausted themselves on the console, and at the same time have extra money in the distance
Chip shortage hurts the PC industry more than the console industry
I actually think they might shorten that window. They can release the game as "new" on PC and charge $50 or $60 for it and get a ton of sales. Right now they charge $60 or $70 for a new game and then within six months the price is reduced significantly. Looking back at GOW you could buy the game for under $20 six months after release! If it was on PC at that point they could easily charge $50 or $60. I know their cut is a lot less on Steam, but still a lot more money to be made that way.
Hahaha joke post? Bloodborne on PC will be huge, just look at how 0c playerbase loves soulsbourne games each game doing better than the last by a large margin and outselling console sale sin the long-run by a large margin.
Thats a new game (yes port from switch but thats more limited than being on PS) versus 4year port.
50m is impressive, considering its only got released in to 1 console.
Horizon had 56000 stop spreading misinformation please.
It still sells well on consoles.
halo 5 did 10m on xbox one. That is 55m console. Compared to god of war 120m console. You also need to consider gamnepass, which had the game in 2017.
They will do after 1 year of release for now. Unless Sony is ready for day1 releases.
The base game is free, but you have to pay 5$ to repair the axe from time to time, 10 for the blades of Olympus, you also need to pay childcare regularly (depending on your income) or you loose the kid and you have to start the game all over again.
I will be broke, by the time i reach mid game.
Because you said so, or so you wanted to?
That's the best trick with child care! I know my ex brother in law did it to my sister (I'm not even sure if she would not have paid to him... But he's that brilliant)... So he went on welfare and moved in the woods.
You are mistaken. Horizon peaked at 56k. God of War current is 64k and rising.
That is a sneaky brother. If that was me, i would have been the one to pay for the child care.
The more you delay it, the more customer you will lose.
It's still low my man. Am a PC gamer, love the game as I have it on PS5 and bought it on PC. But this isn't as high as I was expecting. Monster Hunter Rise sold a million already and that's a switch port. Game is doing alright, no need to hyperbole anything. 650k copies so far. It'll reach the million for sure. And as o said, it's my opinion. Glad u think otherwise.
monster hunter world sold 5m on pc. Rise would sell close to that.
Horizon had an all time peak of 56,557 concurrent users. GoW is now at ~65K and growing with less than 1 day of tracked data, and are numbers that require some time to be properly updated, plus the game's peak pretty likely will be during the first week, not during day one.
The peak will be now during the first weekend after release, either today or tomorrow.
Your x10 logic is likely to be wrong.
X10 has already proven to be right. When steamspy numbers come I'll show u that too since I am a Patreon. Yes, epic games numbers are not factored but I'll doubt many bought there when u have steam
This is SP game. You have to remember SP games dont have a higher concurrent player count. Plus you can finish the game later, and not forced to play it now.
I didn't mention Gears though?
We can say that a method of estimation has been close in the past, but we can't "prove" an estimate to be right... it's an estimate. There are always going to be outliers. Someone just showed you an example where Horizon sold more than what your estimate would imply.

Xbox Fans hoping that Sony releases more PC ports so they can feel better about the fact that Xbox has no true exclusives anymore.
They're crawling out of the woodwork every exclusive release on PC.
I wonder were some of these geniuses come from sometimes with these hot takes lol
Oh, thought you were talking about GoW.
Because the pc games could also profit from Sony's insane multimillion dollar marketing. They would sell much more with that marketing. I'm pretty sure "a few years" will become a few months this gen and i also think at some point they will be day1 pc.
I don't know if I would go there because Sony will have a hard time getting people to pay $70 on PC for day one releases, and Sony gets more from PS5 games since they don't have to give Steam a cut.
You clearly have no idea of what you are talking about. You are only accounting official numbers on your region and Europe. To this day, gow is still played in ps2s and ps3s around the globe. Thanks to piracy, since it's release, gow is widely recognized even outside of gaming in most regions of the planet among hardcore and casual gamers. Halo for instance has never had a similar broad impact.
?
I think the Steam cut and the cut for the psysical PS games balance out. You are right with the higher prices this gen, i just said that in another thread. But we haven't seen one of those multimillion dollar marketing games yet. They will go all in with marketing on Horizon and God of War, it will be interesting so see if those games drop faster than the smaller games with low marketing budget. They could feel the need to sell as many as possible because of the high costs. Really not sure yet where Sony is going with the AAA prices.
