Do you really think people will buy it? I’ve played most of the GTAs, but I’m not about to spend 100 dollars on a video game.

You’re clearly not the target audience. Every slightly popular game has its whales. Something as popular as GTA? They’ll sell it at $100 and laugh all the way to the bank.

Something to consider. With conversion, new games are usually $80-$100 in Canada.

People still buy them.

Meaning this game will be MORE THAN $100 Canadian and still sell like hotcakes.

Not yet, might follow after this stunt faces no lash back and results in profits.

There’s enough people in what I assume to be big gaming communities, like active and paying and stuff, that are defending this, citing that other stuff got more expensive, too… and somehow not many agree that incomes have not risen proportionally. Them temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

Somehow I think that most people defending this kind of crap are too young to actually have a first-hand feeling of how much prices for everything have risen.
