This topic was made before the prices for the games were updated

Will pc games have the same fate? Since new releases always cost the same for pc and console.

Those are more than likely place holder prices.

 

They did this same thing last generation with the pricing.

Well if it is gonna be the real pricings, piracy is gonna shoot up. Like said, it will probably go down.

Actually, the Xbox One being $800 is very possible.

 

At the GameStops near me the managers were complaining how apparently the Xbox One is projected to be $800 at the most and maybe $600 at the least.

this happened a day or two after ps4 was announced its probably a place holder, and pc games (in the us at least) are usually $10 cheaper.

PC games and console games don't always start at the same price look at this for example

http://www.amazon.com/Batman-Arkham-Origins-Playstation-3/dp/B00C7103DO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1369645834&sr=8-1&keywords=arkham+origins

Also Nahhhh I'm sure the price will go down... At least I hope :ph34r:

PROFILEYEAH

What do people even put in these things?

Why is the PC downloadable version $10 more than the PC physical/retail version? 

 

That's bizarre.

They're not even going to get close to that number no matter what lol. It is the most unrealistic shareholder pipe dream in history.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Xbox One costs $800?  Who the f*ck would even buy that! You could get a decent mid-range rig with that money

Yeah that would be stupid and they won't sell 10M if PS4 is priced normally. It's probably not going to happen though...

if it's $600 and after a while comes down in price to like $400 I can see it being successful,I wouldn't buy it,but I can see it selling well.

 

I mean the "pre-order" ps3's sold for over $1000 on ebay.

800 dollars for an xbox one. You could get a pc which has over twice the power of it.

I would agree with you. I would rather buy a PC and get cheap games on Steam rather than buying an $800 console and $100 for each game.
