I'd love to play it but I have no way to. Even if it were on gamepass for PC, I just don't have the GPU for it. Loved both Dishonored games and Prey, so happy to know that when I eventually get to play it, either with a miracle MSRP gpu or on XSX, its gonna be a good one.

I am a bit surprised that it hasn't made its way to gamepass for PC. That is, there is no Microsoft Store version. Do you think Sony would have paid extra money to include a stipulation that it couldn't go on MS store, even though at the time of signing Bethesda was still owned independently by Zenimax, and this would have no tangible benefit to Sony? Or do you think Arkane just hasn't got around to making a win store version yet? Why wouldn't this be a priority?

You might come up with some justification, perhaps that they're trying to maximise sales (on Steam and PS5) as a sort of second-best solution, based on some estimates of how much Deathloop would increase game pass PC subscription sales against how many Steam sales they'd lose. Or maybe you might think they're trying to double-dip, selling the game to those willing to buy it, and then coaxing in the rest with the gamepass route.

It is speculated that Sony when signing temp exclusivity forbid it appearing on any subscription service for a set time.

Probaly after 1 year it will be on gamepass on PC and Xbox, and well if your PC is weak you will be able to try it through XCloud?

There are still people that think that if WiiU had sold 90M, their exclusives would have sold 6x more as well, even titles that were close to 100% attach ratio =p

Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Switch is outselling the console itself - Polygon

"in the U.S. for the month of March, Nintendo sold more than 925,000 copies of Breath of the Wild and over 906,000 units of the Switch."

Nintendo sold more Zelda BOTW Switch games that the actual Switch in NA. Nintendo is the only company i know that can surpass the 100% attach ratio.

I do know of Zelda... but please tell me, did it keep seeling at that rate and now we have Zelda at 80+ Millions copies sold?
