European monthly charts May. EA Sports FC 24 and GTA 5 top European charts in tough May.

Someone's getting shut down. And they had a change in leadership, like what Matt Bootycheeks suggested was the reason they closed Tango.
It'll be continual downhill for them period. COD even though a strong IP will change for the worse abd Thyll bring it down with them too.

Hellblade 2 didn't make top 100 and there's no widespread outrage about making the sequel exclusive. Imagine if a PS-exclusive didn't make top 100, the internet would be shutdown with all the articles about it 😬

There are several reason for that imo.

System Shock: A remake nobody instead a very niche fans asked.
Hellblade 2: A sequel for a bad game that is even worst than original released in a platform that doesn't buy games.
Rogue Prince of Persia: Who asked a roguelike Pince of Persia?

I'm not sure why people are surprised these games didn't enter TOP 100.

Wonder if xbox will even bother porting Hellblade 2 elsewhere, i never saw the hype around it and it looks like it sold maybe 20,000 copies something. Tango made great games and was a presence in Japan with a game ever 3 years. Should’ve kept them and buried Ninja Theory which is surely coming up rather than spend 6-7 years of development cost

I mean they should had done that before release alredy.
But what about "creative"? These are very basic marketing plans.
And already rolled out.













I'm still not seeing the "creative plans" parts... it is what most if not all companies do in terms of marketing.
He tries to make how they are creating the wheel again lol

It's been a month since Hellblade 2's release and Xbox hasn't made a post about Hellblade 2 cumulative players. Those numbers must be much worse than they anticipated.
Biggest bomba of the year after all the fake hype. Clown Dring didn't compare the sales with Hellblade 1, he does that with every release even when they are not direct sequels. Not this time. A small line on twitter and that's it.

It’s worth noting hellblade 2 received an inordinate amount of marketing. It debuted with the reveal of the Xbox series X at the game awards, was at the game awards for a second gameplay trailer, was at multiple e3 showcases, and had all the Xbox shill influencer media hyping it for years. We need to stop with the “it didn’t receive enough marketing” trope. All of that media combined probably equals hundreds of millions in terms of paid advertising. It flopped because it was an Xbox exclusive, nothing more and nothing less.

And here it is ladies and gentlemen!

The reason gta6 still isn't out.

Morons still buying this in 2024. Is it strange to get irritated seeing this 11 year old overrated title in these lists?
