Venture Beat: Gaming consumers in the United States spent $1.545 billion in October, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group. That is up year-over-year, and it’s little surprise considering two of the biggest games of 2018 debuted during the month.
Games such as Mad Max, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Batman: Arkham Knight desperately deserve a modern-day revisit.
RDR2 still looks astounding on PS4 Pro. i cannot imagine how it could look with a next gen upgrade.
It's obviously never gonna happen since Sony killed the game and studio, but Driveclub. Even in its current state, 10 years after release, it still puts many competitors to shame ...
Mad max ikr! Far cry primal, it amuses me how ubisoft just left ac unity hanging, sadly most of the good staff left from rocksteady while being forced to make that abomination smh
Rockstar Games' open world action adventure game, Red Dead Redemption 2, can now run on Android devices, but only barely.
Oh great. So glad this is a thing and not the current gen update we’ve all been asking for. /s
Red Dead Redemption 2 wins 'Best Game Sequel' in BAFTA poll, surpassing Half-Life 2 in a landmark victory.
hmm kinda out there i find red dead 2 a over hyped game i am sure there are other's out there worthy of this award.
Are we saying rdr 2 mp is better than the first one?
The cover shooting better on #2 than #1?
I mean they reused 80% of rdr 1 map on rdr 2
Hmmm don’t know about that one myself. There’s some good sequels there….
No way last of us 2 was a better sequel than the original resident evil 2. The story of TLOU2 was a huge let down for me!
Assassins creed 2 was a vast improvement over the original and still the very best of the entire franchise imo.
Half-life 2 will always be legendary.
RDR2 is great but the best sequel ever? I don’t think so… just my opinion though I guess
Sure, if you started playing game yesterday and just for this series. Otherwise? lol... No.
Lmao that must’ve caught a lot of people off guard
I don't think COD BLOP 4 outselling Read Dead Redemption 2 is that surprising. COD is released so often that many people buy the games habitability or do so because its a popular thing to do.
Yep just as I expected. All year long people kept saying how nothing can touch RDR2 when it comes out. Meanwhile I always figured a COD with a battle royale mode would be hard for even RDR2 to top. You never count Call of Duty out if you're smart.
How many comments do we think are going to ignore the fact that this only measures sales during October, not overall, and that COD came out two weeks earlier in October?
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 released October 12
Red Dead Redemption 2 released October 26
With RDR2 only having 5 days to sell in October compared to CoD: BO4’s 19 days, this outcome should’ve been seen.
The real test will be to see how much both games sell in November & December NPD. Let’s not forget Activision moved up CoD’s release from the traditional Novermber for a reason.
