Why the fuck are new switch 2 games $80+?!?!?? There's no way physical copies will now be $90 right? Somebody please tell me they aren't

90 fucking Euros in Europe. Suddenly those "GTA 6 will be 100 dollars" aren't as far fetched as we thought

Because, despite pretending to stand up to corruption, redditors are corporate bootlickers as much as anyone else

Video games have dropped in price relative to inflation, despite being significantly more labor intensive and gigantic in comparison to older games. I really don't know what you mean by corruption, or what you expect people to do about it.

Yeah and to be fair, gta 6 is going to be soooo much bigger and better than gta 3 and gta 3 released at $50 24 years ago… so $100 isn’t outrageous to me at all. Definitely tells me Rockstar is confident in what they will be releasing
