PC Game Prices

Is it me or are PC game prices going up Dramatically, one thing i used to love about my PC over my PS3/PS4 Xbox etc was the games where cheaper than the console equivalent.
However it seems that they are now the same price, I just seen Hardline in Origin for £60 !!! OK its the "special edition" but even the standard one is £50 that on par with Rip off console prices. Any one else noticed this recently ?

yea i just like the ease of Steam/Origin. I know i can get the codes else where but for some reason always stick to the main channels. I do wonder why these sources are so high, It like games on the playstation store are £10-20 more than going into Game in town ???? dont see the logic.

It boggles the mind when in some cases you can buy a physical copy of a game for £10 cheaper and still activate it via steam...

This is what i have been doing lately, But i just dont understand how buying the disk and just using the code works out cheaper in any way. I have a bunch of games i have never even put the disk in the pc (infact i dont even have a cd drive) yet in some cases as much as £18 cheaper to get the disk delivered to my house and just type the code in.
