In other words, don’t expect exclusive unless you own them.

and this was back in the ps3 days when GTA was still huge but not the monster it is today, after GTAV’s sales I’m not convinced we will ever see something like an RDR from Rockstar again

Rockstar are now making one game a generation. It’s wild.

You don’t think RDR3 could be their next game after GTA VI? I can totally see it. But it comes in the next gen.

Haha not surprising seeing so many racing games high up on the list, we have the same car culture here in Australia it seems.

Haha yeah Overwatch is easy to miss now.

It’s cool to see Starfield continuing to do so well everywhere. It’s very tough for singleplayer only games too on that list, and almost three months after launch… Awesome.

I honestly don’t because from Rockstars perspective, why spend a generation working on a game which is what it will take to make RDR3 when they could spend a generation working on GTA 7 instead?

The games take too long and take too many people for them to be spent working on something that will not make anywhere close to what GTA makes

RDR2 was lucky it started dev years before GTA5/online exploded the way it did because if it didn’t I’d be surprise it it ever existed at all with modern R*, it’s already sold 60m copies and even that 's not enough for R* to bother supporting the online because why bother with it when they can just support GTA instead

We will definitely get a RDR3 but agree it’s a very sad situation. Potentially risky too if someone releases a more popular GTA rival in the future.

Atleast they are working with Remedy to bring back Max Payne, but it was more interesting when they were bringing out games like LA Noire, Warriors, Bully & Midnight Club.

Yeah, good point.

But this brings me to something the CEO of TT said a few years ago. Wanting Rockstar to make GTA smaller, so that we could expect more games more often from them. This clearly hasn’t come to fruition yet, but it makes me wonder if that might happen after GTA 6? Maybe we can get back to having multiple (smaller) Rockstar games like in the 360 days? Yeah, very likely no chance of that. But if they did, we could be seeing a Bully 2. It would be a way smaller game than GTA or RDR.

If it’s truly just one game per generation now…Jesus, man.

Since we are on a roll with Most Played list, here’s the USA:

  • #2 CoD
  • #9 Minecraft
  • #10 Starfield
  • #11 OW2
  • #14 FH5
  • #16 Halo Infinite
  • #20 Diablo IV
  • #24 FM
  • #30 Skyrim
  • #33 CoD Cold War
  • #38 Fallout 4
  • #41 Fallout 76
  • #45 ESO

Total: 13

Imagine if Halo gets ahead of OW2. I think the key for Halo is getting people to give the game another chance. Some of my friends that dropped it early went back to it, and it’s now in their rotation for MP games.

Starfield is still doing so well as a single-player only game. Really great to see !

Back when it was merely huge and not gargantuan lol.

I don’t know anything about business but is it wise to put all your eggs in one basket like that? No argument that GTA prints money and I don’t see much changing that but if the winds change then they’re totally exposed. Do they have any shareholders to reassure or anything?
