    If this is what happened over Silksong I just imagine how bad will PSN and Xbox chug once GTA VI is released, and also how badly Steam will crash once it comes to PC.

      Honestly, I don’t think it will be this busy.

      Silksong was the most wishlisted game on the platform, coupled with the fact they’re selling it for $20 USD

      GTA VI will be a huge release, but there is no way Rockstar sells it for anything less than $100 which is going to price a huge amount of people out.

        I don’t think it will be 100. That was just speculation from economics junkies who want to wish it into existence because they have Rockstar stock. Mario Kart World has literally not sold at all outside of the Switch 2 bundle specifically because it’s 80. I’m pretty sure every other gaming company saw that and affirmed they wouldn’t make their games more expensive than 70.
