Yes but im not in the rush (personally) to play games I want to play... so I wait for discounts.


Its my children that want to play games on day 1 so in a sense i buy it begrudgingly.

Man stop asking me this question. If I want it imma buy it and play it with no fukks given.

If it’s not worth it to me I wait for a sale. Simple as that :manny:
The same thing I do. Honestly, if anyone has to think if a game is worth it, then it probably isn't.

i think sony games (single player games), rockstar, CDPR, and Larian will easily deserve my $80 dollars.

these shoddy japanese games that run sub-1080p and just release looking and performing like absolute shyt is gonna have to wait a bit me thinks.
:laff:

On a serious note, not those, not Xbox, not Nintendo :stop:

Now can there be a game that is worth it to you? For me, Street Fighter II released in North America on June 10th 1992 for $79.99
Was CHEAP as far as I was concerned.

Killer Instinct on the N64 was another game I felt was worth every penny

I wanted to have a Neo-Geo but the games started at $199 so nah for me

I paid $80 for Shenmue 2 Pal import but mainly for collectors reasons (and I loved the franchise)

Other than that.... Can't say any game would be worth that much to me. Goldeneye I would have been cool because that game was played for years. But nowadays? Besides the services, games are on sale literally everyday. So it makes little to no sense to pay full price imo
So paying even MORE is even more of uh :dahell:

Grown ass man gotta make that transition to the PC where you can get stuff for free. Any grown man still entertaining consoles is a loser. Leave that to the kids

This is where I’m at. Once my kid comes all my gaming will probably done on pc. If they decide to pick up gaming I’ll let them go the console route.

Matter fact, I’m cool with paying 80 as long as it’s a complete game, no microtransactions no free to play elements no dlc or if it is any dlc it’s free .

I had to pay for my own Games at some point after making my parents do it(doing the Blockbuster thing could only do so much)so I get their Frustrations as far as Pricing went

Edit:if it was a Subscription Service like Plus and Gamepass then My Parents wouldn't have no issue paying the Yearly and holding me to just that and not buying fresh from The Case at Toys R Us

They will charge $80 for a partially finished game full of battle passes and micro transactions and like the gaming simping being shown in this thread people will continue to buy.

Nah. Aside from metroid prime 4 which I'll be getting at a discount anyways, no games will be purchased for full price from me. I'd rather sub to gamepass, play a little then move on
