The most I've ever paid for a game was $75. Donkey Kong Country. I don't regret doing that, but I don't know if I would do it again...

People will pay $10 more per game next gen.

Oh, they will.

Anyone who thinks the GAMING INDUSTRY will "crash and burn" has no idea what they're talking about.

I hate how people think I'm a EA buff now because I said Madden was the best football game out there. I don't necessarily go out buying every EA game I see. Madden would probably be the only EA game I've played for more than an hour.

I don't know what your guy's intentions are by pointing out that I would buy a game. I'm proud to have a good job in Webdesign. There are limits for me, but for the next-generation 10-20 more dollars for a next-gen game doesn't seem so "DAMAGING." As the next-gen consoles will probably be more expensive as well.

I resent people's referral to me being "one of those people." who would buy anything.... it's tasteless and unnecessary.

I'd love to see EA sports games retailing for 70, that way we can see if the EA Sports dopes like our Kyuzo here will put their money where there mouths have been the last few years "oh I'd buy Madden if it cost $100."

I hate how EA now doesnt have to keep their prices reasonable because they have the only license for football gaming now. They are just going to keep gouging too, because people like Kyuzo will buy their games.
I know you meant nothing Blackmane but I just don't like being generalized.
Stonecutter.... I'm in no way a EA Sports dope... I'm a Madden dope if any... but I wouldn't buy any game for $100.....like I said before, your words are very tasteless and my respect for you has been tainted.

I don't know where you got the idea of me saying I would buy Madden if it cost $100... but this is the first thread I've actually mentioned Madden....I'm not a football fan at the least but the game is fun.

i have to say, i am still amazed at how many people fall for it each gen'.

every new console gen, they have said how much more the games will cost. and every time the games cost the same. you know what games are going to cost next gen? 39.99 - 49.99


i remember hearing how games for n64 were going to cost over 100 each. and it never happened. they were all 49 - 59. i dont know how anyone would have paid over 60 for star wars, i paid 55 when it first game out., and yes i have the reciept still in the game box to prove that. never paid over 60 for any game. and never will have to.
