I think if you actually sat down and did the maths you'd realise that inflation being what it has been. The price increases represent erg little change if any in the value of the game. This is during a period where development costs have spiralled.

If you adjust the OG switch for inflation you get roughly the switch 2 prices

There is straight up no way it's profitable not without some seriously dubious exclusion of Dev costs of first party games being developed for it.

I don't understand everyone's logic. So obviously I:D rather pay less bot more for games but equally I recognise that games cost more than ever before to make, add to that quite high inflation in recent years compared to relatively low inflation mate 99s and 2000s means whilst it used to take years for the real term value of the game to have increased it now doesn't doesn't take so long. So for starters back when games were 50 quid early in PS3 era. Roughly 2% inflation would ...

No, currently there are a number of digital only titles you can buy a boxed version of but inside there is just a digital key you input. The carts that that contain a keh are to replace these titles. It means that the game isn't locked to your account and actually gives people the ability to buy digital only titles and trade them in still and people buy them second hand.

They have totally different studios to work on each one so in theory they are being developed independently unlike Witcher 3 - cyberpunk 2077

Second game was subject to loads of cuts which is why the story feels off I think. https://youtu.be/VEONGKG1gL...

First spidermans writing was fine, second hand some points where it could have been better and based on the leaks due to the hack alot of content for cut for whatever reason. Had it managed to stick to the story that was originally written without the sometimes frankly weird changes that were made - it would have been much better written.

It won't my understanding of how this will work is that the physics and stuff like how you interact with items will be handled by creation engine still but the graphics rendering will be unreal engine. So ES6 will just have new version of creation with updated graphics rendering capabilities. It makes sense. Doing it this was with UE only really makes sense for a remake as they can still use the core physics engine from the OG game and that will help solve loads of dev time.

Rechargeable battery - lol wow 20 years late to that party .... As for haptics considering how good they are in the dualsense I figured this was kinda a given. Sony I'm sure will add features to it's next controller too though, mind. Be interesting to see.

Oh god the idea that the shitty base building mechanic might return to fill in for actual content in the game world sounds awful. Please leave that in fallout....

The history modes came after and we're totally seperate from the games narrative etc. they were purely educational historical tours using the games assets essentially..

Ok so this headline is as misleading as they get. The game is still clearly going to be a playstation timed exclusive. He is referring to if it will be next gen only or cross-gen.

Take two waited longer to adopt the 70 dollar price point so I doubt they will.

What are you on about astrobot had a small budget and sold like 2 million in its first week or so, making back more than it's Dev budget immediately....

Indy will have had a much bigger budget and we have seen from insomniac leaks the kind of contracts Disney makes to license their property it's why no one wants to touch star wars unless they are certain the game will sell really really well. Because Disney take a large cut and have restrictions on numbers of sales...
