SCALPERS, START YOUR ENGINES>A major games retailer has warned that there won't be enough consoles to meet demand over the Holiday period.>Game shops are expecting a surge in interest around PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S and X when Grand Theft Auto 6 launches on November 19.>But a senior games buyer, speaking without the permission of his employer, told us: "We've been informed that because of the on-going issues around hardware component availability, we won't be getting the units we want ahead of GTA." He added: "Demand will likely outstrip supply during the year end period." https://archive.ph/fpUxD
Reminder Rockstar has a nearly infinite budget for advertising and we're just going to keep seeing endless slop articles propping up GTA6 as this huge monumental once in a lifetime event when it's just some dumb game people will get over after a week.
I want to say that it's completely retarded to think that, as if the person has no idea that PS5 and XSX are old consoles now. But the amount of PC-only people that might want to buy a console because GTAVI is probably still 2 years away might actually be a large number.
I don't really believe this. We're end the end of the console generation with about 130 million Playstations and Xboxs sold. Most people who want one already have one. And the people who don't probably aren't going to spend $900 to play one game.
>>741925013FPBP. This fake FOMO viral marketing is cringey as fuck.
The hype around gta 6 is absolutely lit
>>741925013they dont eve need to advertise it lmao

This is the intense zigger propaganda they mention in the article. Looks like a copy of doorkickers, presumably with modern russian military doctrine in how the tactics work.Don't look it up on steam or your sissy clitty will fucking EXPLODE
by the time it comes out AI will be able to decomp it and give us a pc port 1st week anyway
>>741925623I dont see the similarities
>>741925601GTAV threads were barely a thing 3 months after launch
>>741925681we had regular RDR2 threads
>>741925669He's also a shill, like you!
>>741925652For sure
>>741925725Yeah, shitting on it.
>>741925725They stopped 4 months after the fact and only got broughg back up when the PC version released 1 year later. Everyone forgets about this slop soon after release.
>>741924845didn't the investigation show russian interference to support democrats?
>>741925997China and Russia
>>741925743>shilling something that costs $100 in gathering ground of poors neets and browns most of which would rather see your game flop, not because it's bad but because they are bitter faggots only able to draw amusement from others' miserylel money well spent
>>741925053most of the PC only audience are 3rd world brokies and China, they not gonna buy $700 consoles and $100 games. Do they even sell PS5's in China?
