netflix got six hours of gta 6 exclusivity and lasted like three minutes

netflix got the gta 6 extended look six hours before youtube and outage reports spiked basically right when it went live. people were getting playback errors while everyone tried to open the same 27 minute video at once. netflix has not officially said gta traffic caused the disruption, so keep that asterisk. but the timing is so perfect. rockstar invented early access for a trailer and the launch still had server issues. gaming has achieved complete ecosystem integration.
