Hollow Knight. In the midst of Botw horizon ZD nier and resident evil 7... Should have been a summer game.
You're correct.Ah. Ouch. I played none of those but I'll wager Titanfall 2 is the better one, too. xD
I think SEGA saw XCOM 2: War of the Chosen and Mario + Rabbids come out in that time frame and do well, so they thought they could release in that same window, but I don't think they realized that VC4 didn't have the same brand strength or hype to compete at that time in the market.Recently, Valkyria Chronicles 4. Released at the end of September after a bunch of games.
what ?Horizon zero dawn?
I mean.... I still don't understand how Sony thought they could fight the biggest game of this decade

Is it right to say Breath of the Wild completely overshadowed Snipperclips? Both Switch launch titles with the first obviously greater than the latter.
It didn't release near GTAV? It also did +7.6 million in only a year.Horizon zero dawn?

Horizon sold more than 7 million copies and was considered as a huge success by Sony. It wasn't a failure.
There is a lot of big name games releasing in close proximity this month (re2, kh3, ace combat).
Not sure why some of these publishers thought that was a good idea. Someone is gonna be disappointed.
Socom 4 I think was also impacted by the psn hack. I heard there was some indie game too that sony just dropped as a publisher and they had to scramble to get a release on pc.Motorstorm Apocalypse
Released near the PSN outage and straight up cancelled in Japan due to the tsunami.
It's important to note this was only the case in EU, NA did in fact release on the same day as Red Dead Redemption...Alan Wake was released one week earlier than expected, in order not to confront Red Dead: Redemption. They should have delayed it one month instead of moving it one week.

After all the problems they had with battlefront and battlefield I hope they just try to sell the game instead of make respawn go bankruptIt probably was and they did for the most part. I just hope if Titanfall 3 comes out alongside the next-gen consoles, EA spaces out their release and have it come out during the Spring instead of the Fall.
Only recently have I learned that SiN was supposed to be a pretty big deal at the time of its release.
It came out two weeks before Half-life.
Reminds me of Tales of the Abyss releasing two or so weeks before FFXII in North America. Hilarious stuff.Tales of Graces Wii. Released one week after NSMB Wii and one week before FF13.
The definition of Sent To Die.
Tales of Vesperia definitive edition was supposed to come out in November 2018. I suppose that Bandai Namco delayed it so it didn't have to compete with their own Soul Calibur 6 and Katamari Reroll. Now, ToV (a niche franchise) is going to release this month and will compete for the money of JRPG fans with Kingdom fucking Hearts III: one of the most expected AAA JRPGs of the last few years.
Don't tell me the audience of both franchises don't overlap, ToV will be hurt by its own release date.
Mass Effect 3 Wii U a 3 weeks after Mass Effect trilogy, which was cheaper.
EA : "I guess Nintendo gamers don't want our games"
Dragon Quest XI. Spider-Man and Tomb Raider in the way.
And I bet at least 2 titles in February will have the same fate.

Oof, that's a big one. What the hell was Nintendo thinking? Retro also had to rush the game to meet its release date and there was basically no play testing, so that makes the choice to release it at that time even more puzzling.Metroid Prime: Echoes
It was already bad enough to be released in a dying console, but it had as competition Halo 2, Half-Life 2, GTA: San Andreas and MGS3. It was a miracle the game even made it past a million sales.
