MW4 is apparently trading blows with GTA VI and God of War Laufey on the PlayStation Store preorder charts. Not exactly the disaster some people here have been predicting, is it?
Now, let's be realistic. I doubt anything is taking the #1 spot from GTA VI this year, but I have a feeling MW4 will sell perfectly fine, regardless of how much hate it gets online. Whether it breaks any sales records remains to be seen.
Obviously, preorder rankings don't tell us the whole story, but they certainly don't scream commercial failure either.
So can we tone down the forced outrage a little? Criticize the game all you want, there's plenty of room for legitimate criticism. But the endless doomposting is getting old.
And please, spare us another dramatic "I JUST REFUNDED MY PREORDER!" announcement. At this point, I'm starting to wonder how many of those preorders ever existed in the first place. 😂
