In canada a lot of games have been launching at $70 for a while now.


Uh...?

no?

Lol

They did for a while when the dollar was way off... but it's been 59.99 for a while bruh. Taxes don't count lmao

Anyway. Game prices haven't increased at the same rate of inflation. It was bound to happen sooner or later

I believe* that was when our dollar was much lower, I recall waiting a few weeks for it to drop from 69.99 to 59.99 haha.

Sony shows off portable and social elements to PlayStation 4 console

http://www.tweaktown.com/news/28830/sony-shows-off-portable-and-social-elements-to-playstation-4-console/index.html


Did you guys even read the article about 70$ games?

The news comes from EA's latest investor call, where the company's Chief Financial Officer, Blake Jorgensen, stated that there will be a 5-10% increase in development costs for PS4 titles. This means we should expect to see PS4 titles priced at $69.99 at launch, where over time, they'll eventually fall down to $59.99. In order to back this up, EA's Chief Technology Officer, Rajat Taneja, has said that PS4 games will be capable of 8-10 times the graphic capabilities of current-gen games, where we'll see games in 1080p at 60fps.


Now where has EA never been money hungry?
