yeah right. bethesda is a viral marketing firm with a games section.the hype spread all by itself even without marketing
Fallout 4: PornHub sees a noticeable drop in users on launch day
Bunch of degenerate basementdwelling wankers.Seems there is a huge overlap of Bethesda fans and Pornhub users.
Doesn't really surprise me.
Black Ops III made $550 (£361) million in the the first three days of its release, outperforming last year’s Advanced Warfare.
Fallout 4, however is the bigger blockbuster in terms of sales as it made over $750 (ÂŁ492) million in the opening 24 hours alone.

If anyone said that hes a retard, but sounds more like wishful thinking than an actual statement.Wasn't this the place that was talking about a crash in the gaming industry being on the horizon? GTA: V, Call of Duty, and Fallout: 4 didn't seem to get the memo.
It's not a Codex sentiment (not just, anyway), and the observation is not entirely without merit. A model which results in games selling millions of copies and somehow still failing to recoup their budgets - not to mention making any money - is not sustainable in the long run.More proof the that Codex has lost touch with what makes games fun.
Does anyone still believe this bullshit? How many major publishers went bankrupt, say, last year? The industry is choke full of people who laugh all the way to the bank yet keep telling us how poor they and their companies are.games selling millions of copies and somehow still failing to recoup their budgets - not to mention making any money
Bankrupcy is just the most extreme result. Myself, I don't believe there's going to be a crash in the foreseeable future. I would like to see the major publishers making cheaper games, though. Might allow for more creativity to shine through.Does anyone still believe this bullshit? How many major publishers went bankrupt, say, last year?

It still sold well, I bet. But yeah, and that's how the current gen console sales figures were reported as well if I remember correctly.I don't know, the article said shipped not sold.
Shipped doesn't mean all that copies of the game is sold to the customer, no ?
There won't be a crash because there's no reason for it. When you make a game with bland landscapes, dumbed down systems and fanfic-grade story using a 10 year old engine, the game itself is dirt cheap and you're free to spend 90% of your budget on marketing. FO4 is just the most notorious example but in truth every AAA publisher has been using the very same model for years. The only scenario where this model could be unsustainable is people losing interest in AAA games completely. But that won't happen because 5 years from now there'll be millions of new teenagers ready to listen to the same lies and spend their parents' money on the same garbage.Myself, I don't believe there's going to be a crash in the foreseeable future.
