What in the world makes you believe they will have that deal for the whole season? That's not happening.

Also last year from Sept-Dec had COD: WWII, Destiny 2, AC Origins, Battlefront 2, Shadow of Mordor, Wolfenstein 2, Evil Within 2

Compared to BLOPS4, AC Odyssey, RDR2, Fallout 76, Battlefield V, Shadow of Tomb Raider, Just Cause 4

You could certainly argue this year is stronger but only slightly.

Errrrrrr........

I didn't say they will extend that deal all season. I said "if".......

RDR2 trumps evrything else this year and last year. Combined. Andifyou don`t know that then you shopuldn't be talking sales. In 3 days the game mde almost a billion dolllars in revenue. That means it sold at least over 10M copies. 

In 3 days.

Prior to its release, GTA5 was still topping finding its wa into the top 10 amost evry single month. Over 5 years after its release.

Coming up with hypothetical scenarios that have no chance of happening isn't a real counter argument. It's like me saying Switch will win if its $199 with Smash bundled, we know that's not happening so no point in bringing it up.

I'm well aware that RDR2 is huge but we are talking about December, a month that Switch won last year globally with no discounts, bundles or major releases.

I dont really see how GTA is relevant to this discussion.
