First off, sure, I am not entitled to anything so they can price stuff as they please.
All I know is that I cannot remember the last time I purchased a AAA title at launch, mainly owing to pricing and the fact I do not think their games are worth what they are asking for. Nothing is "groundbreaking" nowadays.
Even grey market/stolen keys are around £35 give or take at times.
I realise in this day and age, for every person like me, there are 50 kids all aboard the hype train throwing money out of the windows and fair play to them.
Sure, I will be buying Insurgency Sandstorm ready for launch and purchased Mothergunship but neither are AAA.
Also, what is with multiple SKU's at launch...
Super Game - Standard
Super Game - Super Standard
Super Game - Super Standard Deluxe
Super Game - Super Standard Deluxe Putin Edition
I get that it is business but how did these scumbags worm their way into the industry.
