Spicalicious 129 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 2 hours ago, Beta Bux Romeo said: UK retail sales figures are out for Red Dead Redemption 2 and while the title has sold very well indeed, it has failed to top FIFA 19, which remains the biggest week one release of the year.Second place is highly respectable of course, but with huge development costs, the game will need to successfully monetise its online service in order to be considered a success – by Rockstar standards at least.The title was never going to have the same draw as the company’s biggest franchise. And the games market is a very different place to 2013 when GTA V was released. But week one sales of 27 per cent of the biggest game launch of all-time is nothing to be sniffed at.We await a report on digital sales from Rockstar or parent Take-Two.Another way to look at the game is that RDR 2 claimed just over 60 per cent of the retail market this week, so the idea that no one was buying anything else this weekend is rather put to rest. Compare that to an incredible 89 per cent market share for GTA V on its launch week and you get an idea of how big it was out-of-the-blocks.More recent comparisons of 75 per cent for FIFA 19 and just 44 per cent for Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 show RDR 2 is doing well, though not outstandingly so, in dominating public consciousness at launch. I highly doubt American Wild West games are of any interest to Europeans. To say that it got second is a huge compliment. Rockstar is a beast. Link to post Share on other sites

Almost no games ever released have reflected a fucked off ratio like that unless it's some Japanese thing and even then 6:1 is a bit extravagant. Most games bear out the install base ratio. Also wait for NPD, isn't that Red Dead Xbox promo US only? No Canada too. I just bought another One X for the cottage on Friday along with RDR 2 and received $130 discount. Totally worth it.

madmaltese★ 2,701 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 About what I expected. The game will do extremely well but this is no GTA in terms of mainstream appeal. Link to post Share on other sites

Lesson in percentages. They do not work the same way going down as they do up. The X having a 100% increase in resolution does not mean the Pro has a 100% decrease. A 100% decrease equals 0. Eg, 100 is 100% increase on 50. However 50 is a 50% decrease on 100. Congratulations, you can now graduate primary school mathematics :) 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
