straxi1234 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 R* released trailer 2 in the morning and then at the end it said in stores now because they had shipped them without us knowing! Do you think their sales would still be as good??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainCapri Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 1. It would never happen... 2. Of course there sales would be as good! It might take time to pick up rather than setting a specific date of realease... but come on this is GTA 5 of course the sale numbers will be high!

Ruscris2 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 There is no way they would ship them without us knowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huevos_benedicto_180 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 It would fail. You need to let customers know when a product comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriaan Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 With every GTA release, images/videos leak out starting the week before because of people that work at stores or whatever get access to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think their sales would still be as good??? It's damn near impossible it would happen like that... but the game would sell like hot-cakes. The frenzy would be quite fantastic..

AtomicPunk Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I can see myself dropping everything and running to the store like a crazy nut! That would actually be the coolest game release of all time and would go down in history! But it'll never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamieleng Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 There is nothing more I'd like than for GTA V to be released ASAP. I'd also like it to smash COD's first day/week sales record & that would be impossible with your scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choco Taco Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 As long as they did some marketing after the release to reach all of the casual gamers who don't stay as informed as us, the game would sell just as well. That would only apply to a game like this though. It wouldn't work with lesser-known games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rare.steak Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Why the Apple inspiration? Not even EA would stoop that low I think, let alone R*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll rdny ll Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 It wouldn't work with lesser-known games. It happens all the time with lesser known games. Only big games the extensive previews and year long marketing treatments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only big games the extensive previews and year long marketing treatments. I'm not saying the lesser-known games would flop with this approach. They just wouldn't sell as well as they would if they had a longer pre-release marketing period. GTA V doesn't really need that since it's so popular.

Graven Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 This has been imagined already in several threads. It would be sweet, but impossible to ship motherload of copies worldwide without leakage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_roy1985 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I think sales would still be record breaking in the first weak. Hope they don't do this though, I need some time to prepare for the release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki18760 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Next day sales not likely, but i could see a week later release. where the product was ready to roll out to stores the next day. Imagine the hype and anticipation if it would release a week after the trailer it would be on hectic release, especially if it was sent to reviewers under NDA at the same time. It would be epic getting a new trailer each day of the week and then the day before release reviews coming up one by one it would be epic and a memorable launch that would be for sure.
