| Wman1996 said: Yeah. GTA is bigger now than it was on the original Xbox (GTA didn't help the original Xbox in a meaningful way) where there were intentionally delayed ports. There's no current confirmation for a PC version (we know it will happen either at launch or later on) which helps Xbox Series X/S and PS5. While Series S has worse specs than Series X and PS5, there is appeal for a console that's $300 USD or cheaper to play GTA VI. GTA VI in both the short-term and long-term will likely boost Series sales by at least 2 million, if not 5 million or more. 50 million, and especially around 57.96 million of the Xbox One seems like a difficult unlikely battle. 42-45 million? It's quite plausible. I feel like 40 million is near the floor right now, not the ceiling. |
By the time GTA VI hits the market the second hand market will be so flooded with Series S (and X) units that I don't think it will do anything good for Xbox but stop the bleeding for that quarter. Still laughing my ass off at DF's video where they find tons of second hand Series S units at 100 pounds (no controller).
And $400 cheaper is better than $300 any day of the week going by that reasoning.
