EA Outs Battlefield 4, Plans To Charge $70 For New Games

Posted by Soulskill on from the first-person-inflaters dept.

Justus writes "Posts at NeoGAF and IGN show that a quickly-removed Origin advertisement for Medal of Honor: Warfighter reveals plans for Battlefield 4 and a new-game cost of $70. With Battlefield 3 DLC promised through 2013 and PC games cheaper than ever with things like the Steam Summer Sale, are gamers ready to buy Battlefield 4 at next-gen pricing?"

    Sorry but since you don't pay them any money you are not entitled to call yourself a customer and your opinion is irrelevant.

    You don't even use dollars, you live in the UK and use pounds. On top of that everyone knows that you just pirate games. You lying UK cunt.

    Stop complaining about game prices, you only make yourself look stupid.

    $50 in 2002 = $63.86 today
    $50 in 1992 = $81.82 today
    $50 in 1982 = $120.04 today

    Games have actually gotten cheaper, not more expensive over the decades, because their prices have not kept up with inflation.
