Nintendo 64 carts were as expensive if not more in the 1990s, not just adjusting for inflation, if anything computer gaming has got cheaper. I'll not argue that I'd have this for £30 over £50 any day though of course :smiley:

Nice price, but still find it nuts that we live in a world where I can buy a game, ahead of release, without details of said game being finalised and no guarantee that it will run on my rig, as no tech specs released.
Not sure if some sales are missing like digital etc. But COD is still a behemoth despite what the hipsters like to claim.

I think it is slowly dying but its not like it will just disappear overnight. People still buy into it, just look at how many people plan on getting infinite just for the cod 4 remaster even without that people still buy cod just because its cod.

I don't think that's true. It's been on CD Keys ages and is fluctuating in price. Probably based on exchange rates between us and where they are sourcing it.
It started at £29.99, when to either £31.99 or £30.99 (I forget which) back down to £29.99 and now back to £30.99 again.

Amazon is doing the boxed version for £34.99 with the Hellfighter Pack. Hard to know if £5 is a good bargain for the DLC until we know the price of the Premium pack.

Yeah, its telling that the MW1 remastered version of All Ghillied Up got more of a reaction at the Sony presser than Infinite Warfare did.
It would be nice if you could just buy the MW1 remake on its own since I actually wouldn't mind having that.

It's worth £25, tops.

Yet another twitch shooter with people spawning randomly and running around like headless chickens with zero planning or teamwork involved. Now with endorsement from some gangsta rapper.
I'll pass.

Just got a new job and my manager plays COD BO3. In order to waste some time in his office I play him every evening, even though I hate the silly game.

A 486DX with 1MB video card, Sound Blaster and colour monitor would cost you around £1500 in 1992, adjust it for the inflation and compare it to decent modern gaming PCs you can have for £600. Full version of Doom cost $40 in 1993, that's $64 today. And we haven't even started adding printers (£500-£800 for an inkjet), external floppies or ZIP drives for backups, or software and pales in comparison with some free google docs equivalent these days.
So cut the "in my days" crap. :smiley:

Because unless you are getting an amazing pre-order bonus then there is literally no point in pre-ordering a game. Also, it's digital! They're not going to run out of copies! Pre-ordering originated in a time when stores had a finite number of copies and you wanted to be guaranteed you got yours on day 1. Today it only serves to give companies assurances that their game is going to sell well and in my opinion that will make them lazy/complacent.
The game could launch broken. The servers could be like ****. It might be cheaper somewhere else. I can go on if you like? :wink:

But the key prices for this will be extortionate when the game releases. Look at Overwatch now for example.

Retail box on Amazon (Student account): £33.24
Think I'll stick with that thanks, I dislike preordering games but since Amazon don't charge until delivery & I can cancel after beta if I wish ... then why not.

Coding a square shooting other squares with a square didn't require paying two dozen of 3D model artists for two years back then. :wink:

Why on Amazon can you pre order the hard copy for £34.99 but an origin digital code from Amazon costs £44.99?

I definitely remember many ZX Spectrum games costing £6.99 or more. Such as Hunchback by Ocean. I bought many and pirated many too.
I preordered a few weeks ago when it was £27 on cdkeys. I never pre order but thought they would learn their lesson after battlefront. Found out today to play french forces you have to buy dlc, going to contact cdkeys now and see if I can refund.

Thanks OP :smiley:
When you buy a game in 2016 you get a base product.
There's a big difference.
