Why are we shocked that people got a popular video game for Christmas?
That's how I got it. I was going to wait for a 50% off sale.
It’s Forbes. I’m pretty sure this article’s audience are boomers of the “I’m not a computer person” variety, who are only reading it thanks to the Apple ecosystem and younger family members.
Spot on. Forbes articles are pure clickbait without any substance.
It was on sale during the holiday sale so it’s even less surprising
Exactly. Plus it just won Game of the Year, thus getting more publicity. And it got released on X-Box, which is again more publicity.
Especially after is won game of the year at the Game Awards. This seems pretty normal to me.
