Just think of everything we’ve given up because people can’t be bothered to get out of their seat to change discs. It’s actually kind of a grim sign of things to come, where everywhere halfway famous games stays at an inflated price even a decade or more after it’s released, only going cheap for a few days a year during the sale. Who is going to pay that for it?! I know digital has taken over but that’s madness when it’d be more difficult to find it for more than £10 in an actual shop than it would be to get it cheaper digitally. I don’t know what’s more shocking about this Red Dead Redemption business, the fact that they want £40 for it or that it’s still £25 on the Xbox store. I realise few people reading this need to be told this but people on Twitter are crazy. If you like it then great, if you don’t that’s not their problem. Developers are just trying to make the game they want.
Publishers do lots of horrible stuff, but it’s usually things like microtransactions or paying for upgrades. If you’re not happy about a game then get a refund, although have the time, as in this case, the game’s not even out yet so there’s literally nothing to complain about. The entitlement of some (most?) gamers has got more and more out of control in recent years and it’s going to end in violence if we’re not careful. I have no interest in Tekken but I strongly support the director telling off whining fans. I also bet it’ll be at least 15 years before we ever see GTA 7. It’ll take a while for it to beat GTA 5, but I bet it becomes the biggest game ever. Can you imagine how big the sequel is going to be given all that, with new fans added on top of existing ones? GTA 5 must’ve sold more on its own than most publishers have managed in their entire history. I mean, it’s sold 100 million more than the best-selling Mario Kart, which as far as I can see is the second best-selling non-bundled actual game.
