Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition has sold 10 Million Copies

[Dale Copper]

A separate thread just for the shock and awe of it all.

GTA is beast nothing can compete with it.

 

[Zebesian-X]

for fuck's sake lol

guess this means GTA 4 and RDR 1 are a lock though?

 

[RockmanBN]

Talent wins. Congrats Grove Street Games on showing your prowess over other developers.

 

[Nugnip]

We done fucked up lol

 

[amialion]

What the…even with all the technical issues. Wow

 

[blackMamba1187]

Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time.

 

[Streusel]

good thing they fixed that glitch

 

[Richietto]

Shaking my motherfuckin head…

 

[Biosnake]

What an unfortunate event.

 

[BassForever]

Honestly it's probably have sold like 15 million if the collection wasn't terrible. I'm sure it'll eventually be patched to acceptable on all platforms, but these sales are 100% underserved.

 

[Jarmel]

utterly depressing

 

[MentalZer0]

 

[NediarPT88]

Actually disgusting lol

 

[Het_Nkik]

And now Rockstar has learned their games can sell on name alone and effort is not actually required.

for fuck's sake lol

Still remember how hyped I was for the switch release.
I'm really glad I didn't buy it.

GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition has sold more than Metroid Dreads. Let that sink in.

 

[ShinobiBk]

Imo this # could've been significantly higher if they actually did a good job with those remasters.
I know I will buy them as soon as they're fixed if ever

 

[Ricelord]

 

[KORNdog]

I couldn't even play the PSnow version of GTA3 for more than 20 minutes. Terrible. Can't believe it's sold that amount.

 

[Condwiramurs]

'the fuck man
great sign for publishers, can just shit out a low effort butchered "remaster" and still make bank

 

[Papercuts]

This industry loves the cycle of releasing half baked bullshit that people buy either way.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Depressing

 

[CloseTalker]

holy fucking shit lol.

i honestly wouldn't have expected those numbers so quickly, even if the game wasn't trash

 

[King Alamat]

And this is why folks should stop hyping up sales like a badge of honor.

 

[_Aaron_]

Has the Trilogy even received any more patches since November?

Did they just leave it broken and forget about it?

It's not the IP driving these sales. The devs are that talented. Both Grove Street Games and Pokemon BDSP's ILCA are a cut above the rest.

 

[Temperance]

 

[Belphegor]

they would have sold twice that amount if it had been a good remake

 

[Keiriks]

Low budget, low effort, huge returns. It's every publisher's favorite.

Well, it is the biggest reason games are made in this industry.

 

[Strike]

😬

 

[Hazuki_X]

No wonder they stopped patching it. They just don't care anymore

 

[Gravity Insanity]

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

Proved you don't need to put effort in.

Why bother if you can do that badly and sell that many?

 

[Matticers]

That'll teach 'em to put minimal effort into remasters.

 

[Syntsui]

Was it heavily patched since the disastrous release state?

I don't know what's satire anymore.

 

[Futabaisthebest<3]

"Broken" remastered game is a feature, not a bug.

 

[headspawn]

You dudes will buy fucking anything lmao.

 

[EssBeeVee]

we can go deeper

 

[Antoo]

talent wins baby!

suck it haters

 

[Linus815]

you gotta be really out of touch with gaming to think this is a surprise

 

[Theiea]

What the fuck.

 

[ColR100]

Complete mugs (the end customer that is).

 

[Mobu]

 

[Gero]

Same shit gonna happen with the GTA V re-release...sigh

 

[Deleted member 6235]

lmao what the fuck

 

[Golbez]

Not surprised at all. People are willing to buy *anything* when they're hyped or when nostalgia kicks in. It's like both for these games.

With that said, did they fix anything else other than the horrendous rain effect?
