This not including the rise of negative comments against GTA V is a valid point, but the thing was they've had fantastic sales in the past where they've given out such games. They're treating GTA V like some sort of Minecraft which is sad, it's not the only game they're ever going to make ever again. Not implying that Mojang wont ever make other games (to the same magnitude as Minecraft).
Fantastic sales that generally happened more than two months after release, to be fair.
I realise, of course, that it was released on other platforms before then. But it seems a little odd to pick on a two month old release. (Actually not quite two months, now that I check)
