I was reading some of the prices of games these days and the average console game is £25+ going up to nearly £100 for the latest special edition assassins creed game.
When I was a gamer back in the day, games costs 99p, £1.99, £2.99 etc. I think the most expensive game I bought for the Amiga was £14.99.
I think if I was a kid today I wouldnt have been able to afford to buy games. If I managed to get a game I'd have to ask my parents for it and even then it would be at the most 1 game per month, maybe less.
I'm not sure how kids get a satisfying gaming experience these days. They are all pushed in to the free to play games, and apparently shamed because they can't afford the latest cosmetic items for that game.
What do other people think? Do you think if you were born in 2010, so you're 10 years old today, would you still have got in to gaming?
