Looking at the STEAM sales it would've only done around 20% of what it "sold" now if it wasn't free. So yeah, the main reason it was downloaded so many times was because it was free.

Compare this game with other new games that were free right from the bat (and similar production values). Any other comparison makes no sense.

So, if it wasn't for the fact it was free with a PS+ subscription, it would only have sold 500k? I wonder ... given there are over 10 million PS+ subscribers, why the hell didn't the other 5.5m people download this FREE game? And, given that there are lots of games that have been on PS+ that haven't come close to being downloaded 4.5m times, what made more people download this game? Clearly not everyone downloaded it because it was free and clearly it was downloaded more times than other free PS+ games. What would you conclude from that?

That is actually a check mate, so I see no reason to continue this nonsensical debate.

Why quote me when you obviously didn't even read my post? 20% of 5 million is one million. Look at my last sentence and you'll also understand why most games on PS+ didn't reach those numbers.

Declaring a check mate doesn't make it true. ;)
