PS4 to have $100 Games?

That's what'll happen if they keep this price. Nobody will buy games for $100 each.

All stand for the anthem

Yes, show them that you wont support them and their creations by doing the very thing they blame for lost sales.
You could just.. you know, not. Wouldnt it be a shocking message if they dont sell many copies and when they try and blame piracy instead of their shitty price tactics or gameplay, they find it wasnt downloaded much at all?

Awfully expensive placeholder. Typically amazon auto prices them at 60 as thats been the agreed upon retail price for games for a decade. I also doubt its the actual price though since thats an awfully big jump. They would do 69.99 if they were to raise prices IMO unless they are adding in the final cost now... I digress, idk.

Not fed up enough to stop buying them though along with their dlc, and season passes, and online passes, and server fees, and character packs and so on. Even with all the hype about piracy and such, games are making more money then in the past.

Wait till they make $400 games :D

Thanks Obama!

Someone had to say it.

There hasn't been a 67% inflation. Inflation is very small percentages, like <5%. It would be the difference of the game costing $60 and the game costing $63.

Technically, it already is. Once you factor in DLC, map packs, etc.

Xbox and PS2 games were 50 each. N64 games were 40 each brand new. Price increase is to be expected as games, supposedly, become more complicated to make, distribute and so on, add inflation and its to be expected. Whether or not they sell at the higher price point though is in question each time.

Idk, mario, Zelda, pokemon, and tons of other older generation games offer replay value to this day that rivals that of current AAA games on any system. Probably dropped 1k hrs into pokemon back when the first gen popped out. Compared to say MW, Black Ops, Bioshocks, Dead Space, Prototypes, Portals, where I might have tossed in 400hrs COMBINED. Hell, I think Ill go get a rom for pokemon right now...

You know, they might find it more profitable if they just sold the game at 100 bucks and threw in all the DLC with every copy. No season pass bs, no 100 dlc items, online passes etc. Its just novel enough to work isnt it? Of course, no game studio in their right minds would do this for fear of their stock holders revolting or something but its worth dreaming about.
100 bucks for a complete game instead of the 120+ required now? Such a great deal IMO.

All entertainment is a luxury tbh so that part isnt really saying anything.

PC games cost just as much as console games mate. Yes, we get sales more so then consoles but still. Any price increase to our console peasants will travel up to us PC master race members.

And dont say pirating, because that just gives them a justification for why they didnt sell their game instead of blaming their price/game.

More games with a console tie are priced the same as their PC port/counter part then not. Just to let you know.

This price is not final. Is not even real. Its a placeholder used by amazon. Thats it.

I believe I heard Sony wasn't planning on taking a loss with the PS4, IIRC, because they've been bleeding money for a couple years now.

I can't remember if that's correct or not, so don't quote me.
