It's unreal for me how impatient some people are, a friend is buying an console just so he can play it earlier. Pre-ordering every single game and then complaining they get unfinished stuff.

Like dude i just wait till it releases with a normal price tag, we're waaay to old to care about having fomo.

    That's ridiculous. Especially with the cost of consoles nowadays, and the fact that we're about to be locked into a no-disc ecosystem. And on top of that, that new consoles are going to be announced in a year or two anyways.

    Rockstar is using the same strategy as GTA5. Push the financially irresponsible to buy a console for 1 game. Then push the even more irresponsible to upgrade to a next-gen console for a better port of 1 game. Then release the PC version last, hoping that anyone running on the treadmill for best experience will end up triple dipping.
