Oh, sure, why not even make it 200 bucks, just 'cus? Besides, the majority of triple A games already cost over 100 bucks, if you count the cost of the base game plus all the post launch stuff, DLCs, microtransactions, and whatnot. Can't wait for the day people will realize this is all bs, grow a spine and decide *not* to buy the newest shiny thing, and let this market collapse as it deserves.
If they are dumb enough to charge 50% more than average for the game, they should expect fewer sold copies and a smaller overall profit as a result. Is my prediction anyway
Marvel snap has the worst in game economy of any card game I've ever played. Like if i spend 100 dollars on in game purchases i expect to get exactly what i want not a lottery progression system that may give you things you're looking for. If not for the economy i might still be playing the game today.
$100. Yarrrr I say. I mean since I don't care about GTA online, it of no loss I can't play it online. Just to clarify, I do realize prices go up over time of course. But, at least in the US, the economy sucks and no on can afford $100 for a game. As it is many people still wait for sales.
GTA VI very likely won't cost more than $70. That statement was made by a group of investors who would love it if games cost more so they can get richer. They'd have games cost $1000 if they could. But considering how A) AAA games at $70 haven't done as well as investors hoped for years now, and B) GTA will sell gangbusters at $70 anyway, it's a moot point. Games are entertainment products, not basic needs. I highly doubt anyone wants to shell out $100 for the next Lego game.
Whales will pay what Whales will pay! I would rather spend the money on a good collection of Indy games rather than pay inflated prices that have put games up by nearly half again!
It's not a source it's a hope in the industry. This could be the best game ever made but £100 is too much. If it comes out at £70 means I have to save so sod that.
100 for whats essentially going to be a live service game. Its been that long since i played a gta game that i honestly couldn't care less. Ill rent it for a month that'll cost me a tenner.
Putting "May" in the sentence doesn't give anything in my opinion. For example, GTA May cost $500, has about the same legitimacy as saying it may cost $100... Hiding behind keywords is low tier journalism, stick to facts please 🙏
Played every GTA game under the sun. Did not care for GTA Online. Played both RDR games. Didn't care for the online. I'm old enough to where if they wanna charge $100, I'm perfectly fine with waiting for a deep sale just to play the story.
Sonic 2 for the Megadrive cost £30 when it released in 1992. That's $60 in 1992 money and almost $100 in today's money. Gaming has always been an expensive hobby and the seemingly endless obsession with making games as complicated and bloated as possible have made price points unsustainable for those big AAA games. Trouble is, though expensive, Sonic 2 released as a complete experience and actually worked... something a lot of big AAA titles now cannot boast.
Phantasy Star IV for the Mega Drive cost $99 in 1995 money, equivalent to about $200 today. But Phantasy Star IV didn't have an online mode with digital currency to generate continuous revenue from people who had already bought the game. Whatever money Rockstar made from selling GTA5 for the past decade and a half is a pittance compared to how much money they have made selling shark cards. They aren't going to create such a high barrier of entry to the part of the game that generates the majority of their profit.
Mate, a few Snes games where £80 in the UK.... Street Fighter 2 the main one, always remember seeing it in catalogues/currys/comet/pther shops up on the shelf for £69.99/£79.99. I bought Super SF 2 Turbo/CE for Mega Drive £30 instead. Games where always general £20-40 for a long time. Thry crept up to £50...now they are all £60-£70. GTA6 will be £100 i'd guess...or £60 base game... £20-£40 for gta online. So yes.... £100, it should include online but they wont like the last time around they'll sell it seperate.
Yeah, RGT said this is a non argument in his latest video but I don't totally agree. We kinda skated by for a long time on Sony's strategic undercutting of Nintendo. It's kind of rare for companies to actually pass their savings onto consumers, but it was necessary for them to get a foothold. Games in the '90s were expensive to manufacture, tricky to port, and shared a much lower market saturation. GTA6 is probably the most justifiable $100 game I could think of. 10 years in development (7 in full production) from a developer with a proven track record, on a console generation with a significantly smaller install base. If GTA is going to be $100, why aren't all these yearly releases 40-50? I think the parasites are larger than the host organisms in this industry.
Sonic 2 isn't complete. There's an entire zone left unfinished in the code, alongside many other zones, some that never truly began development and are not in the code, and other numerous leftovers that didn't get far, such as Cyber City and Wood Zone.
The budgets and production cycles for AAA titles have gotten so insane that it’s only a matter of time before they start pricing them at $80-100. The only reason they haven’t already raised prices is it’ll turn consumers off, but a game like GTAVI is guaranteed to sell no matter what so I could see them pricing it higher as a sort of trial run for the industry. If Rockstar can get enough people to spend $80-100 on a GTA game every other publisher will start following suit with their biggest properties and before long the only new games released for $50-60 will be “budget” titles.
The analyst said other publishers hope that Rockstar will charge $100 to set a precedent. I actually read the reddit post you guys skimmed. Not watching these any more
I can’t believe you guys go on about people not reading what Ubisoft said about video game ownership properly and repeated this false line about the cost of GTA.
Just take a random guess between Mario, Zelda, or Kirby, and you know what "new" release they dropped. Aside F-Zero and Metroid, Nintendo hates the fans of those games.
Step 1. Leak potential £100 price point
Step 2. Much consternation from video game consumers
Step 3. Release at the now seemingly bargain £80
Carny rules! "We win, you lose!"
anyone that pays a 100 for that or any game is a sheep
God of war live service. An asymmetric survival. 4 gods run around in a desperate panic as a single kratos Hunts and guts them one by one.
CHRIST IS DOWN! VISHNU NEEDS HEALING! SUN WUKONG IS CHARGING! GLAUCON IS AFK!
If this is true and games are going to get this expensive. At least it will make me actually play my extensive backlog.
It's not true
I wrote if.
Anything that gives me the drive to play through the yakuza games is good with me
People will get GTA for 100 but not other games
Plus future extra dlc fees.

No. When they budgeted making the game, all of the metrics are based on the game being $70, maybe even $60.
Yeah, they probably anticipated the install base to be larger. I could see that driving up prices.

Exactly plus if R* or Take 2 didn't say it don't believe it
well then i buy from a key site and they get none of my money.
Whales will pay what Whales will pay! I would rather spend the money on a good collection of Indy games rather than pay inflated prices that have put games up by nearly half again!
Obviously i have one hundred dollars though i'll never use such a lot money in a game
the game will be 103$ canadian, so no its going to be the regular cant believe im saying this 89.99$ canadian
i miss the days when games costed 60$.
How reliable is that source though about gta vi
Lmao what source, it’s not like they shared a leak. People be down bad for any news about gta 6.
It's not a source it's a hope in the industry. This could be the best game ever made but £100 is too much. If it comes out at £70 means I have to save so sod that.
@@milkman2011 yeah but £100/$100 for a game though. Nobody should ever have to pay that much for a game
It was an analyst saying that smaller publisher's are hoping GTA will charge $100 so that it will set a precedent for everyone else to do it
If Rockstar doesn't say it don't believe it
100 for whats essentially going to be a live service game. Its been that long since i played a gta game that i honestly couldn't care less. Ill rent it for a month that'll cost me a tenner.
Won't buy it then. I am not desperate enough for that, especially when PC has games for incredibly cheap.
Hey gamers have you considered anarchism and worker co ops, billionaires are ruining your games
Everyone will buy it no matter how much it costs .
That’s probably the thought process. It’s such an anticipated game
Putting "May" in the sentence doesn't give anything in my opinion. For example, GTA May cost $500, has about the same legitimacy as saying it may cost $100...

I don't even buy games at 60 with rare exceptions. I would maybe pay 70 for gta but a normal version for 100? No chance. Maybe a collectors thing.
you all are nuts if you think the game is gonna be more than $69.99
Knowing how corporate greed knows no bounds I really hope you're right
Agreed although I wouldn't be surprised if online is some sort of subscription.

You're the type of whale that would gladly shill out $100 and be a good little corpo pet 😂
If that's the case that it going to cost 100 ill happily sell my computer

did you watch the video? that is literally what they said
Love the hoody, Ashton!!! x
First?!
I can’t believe you guys go on about people not reading what Ubisoft said about video game ownership properly and repeated this false line about the cost of GTA.
Why would you not report what was released by Nintendo? Maybe there is someone here who didn’t know!?

Aside F-Zero and Metroid, Nintendo hates the fans of those games.
They talked about the Switch2 on their Saturday podcast- check it out if you're interested.
Doubt the game will actually cost that much
Hopefully it's not
It won't be long tho games around gone up in price last few years
