ok so Im in Kmart theres a dude playing a new 360. I look at the games rack and I nearly faint.

$108.95!!!!

hey I dont mind purchasing games but anybody else think thats a bit pricey?

bit rich if you ask me. I hope my $99 pc games cherry isn't popped in the near future.

There was a thread on this, like, last week.

could you be so kind as to link to it please?

thanks fpot

ok no use bumping that.

ten bucks says the ratchet effect will mean almost all other platform games prices rise. so f***ing gay.

somebody hand me a tissue

tips to getting your games cheaper,

trade in if you can at shops like eb. *if you can part with your games
pre order if you can think todo it before its released
buy pre owned
shop around.

i dont like game prices increasing as much as the next person, i just try to get them cheap as i can.

gay post of the day award for you Stez

people, its the new price set by 3rd party publishers of 'next gen' games. teams like ea or whatever say they have the right since all these new games need fancy gfx and lots more art and time (while still pumping out madden every year). they see it as an excuse to charge more.

i dont think it will change with current gen or pc games for a while. at least MSFT isn't doing this (to my knowledge) and companies like nintendo definitley wont be with their cheaper mentality they are going for.

anyway, i thought this news would be common knowledge to gamers, as it has been for about 6 months :S

does none of this gaming community read gaming news like on gametab? :S
