GTA 6 publisher CEO thinks videogame prices are "very, very low" for what they offer

[kaldurahm]

Charge $100 for games in a recession brehs. I already hopped of that train.

Digital collectors edition - one week early access 89.99

The way some off you get on ur knees for these companies is disturbing and disgusting.

 

[The Phoenix]

Some games do and some games don't. The problem is, you can't charge for the value you perceive that your game is worth. Same thing with movies at the theater. Some movies are great, some are trash but a ticket is the same price. There is no way of really knowing how the public values your game or even if there is agreed upon criteria to determine what's good and what's bad. So Rockstar has to charge 70 bucks for a $100 game because Ubisoft is charging 70 bucks for a $30 game. That's the industry.

We won't even get into the whole shady side of things where they charge you extra money for shyt that should have been included. No. Rockstar is making out fine. Dude needs to shut the fukk up and count his blessings.

only read most of page 1:

before games go up in price.. publishers must complete a game upon release without relying on patches and updates.

micro transactions should not be "pay to win" type.

 

[Diunx]

These people don't even remember the value of money and are out here talking about somthing being cheap.

Games like GTA and Fallout I can see being a solid $100. Those games are huge and folks will play them for decades. I'm playing Fallout 4 right now actually


Games like COD, 2K, FIFA and whatever game is just 6 hours with no return play, can get the fukk up out of here, it should be $20 stream

You ever listen to the Chino XL song that Pac was mad about? shyt is hilarious.

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

fukk that. I never pay full prices on games anymore. If Rockstar wants to charge $100+ for that, they can suck my dikk.

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

You raise prices then more black market it is. Many people can't even buy enough food daily and they imagine a mass consumer video games should cost over 100.

True....plus when you raise prices, expectations go up.

For $100, I want Red Dead 2 + Witcher 3 type story with Horizon FW graphics and few if any glitches.

GTA6 might deliver but most games will get judged harshly. Raising the price means raising the stakes. Publishers haven't thought about that.

 

[Rice N Beans]

Busted releases are common now more than ever, and somehow they wanna charge even more for that BS.

 

[marleyg]

my list

xbox storage expansion [1TB seagate]
xbox charging/battery pack
call of duty: modern warfare 3 [digital]

 

[Dorian Breh]

There's no way this nikka gonna drop GTA 6 with a $100 price-tag. That shyt's gonna be cracked on day 1 and it'll only incentivize pirating it

 

[Mowgli]

100 dollars a game. That's those old Nintendo toys r us prices. Before it was about costs which cds resolved. Now they're using perceived value

Remember when he could spit like this.

I been tellin people this for years.
