import69 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 So game is charging £49.99 for GTA on XBOX ONE, am i the only one that thinks its a little expensive for a game that is not actually new but a later release, specially for people that have already played it on 360 and PS3. I was expecting something around £35 What do you guys think? Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/747829-gt5-pricing-fair-or-not/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramtastic Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 It's cheaper in the stores. Go to Asda or Tesco at midnight and pick up a copy for much less.

JJ1995 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 well with the improvements to the graphics and stuff they added like new animals, cars activities and music then I think it is fair but that's just my opinion since im going to buy the ps4 bundle with gta in 3-4 weeks when I have the money I save from work.

CarlitoDorito Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 It has more in it than most games for the same price, more value for the 49.99. I payed 54.99 for the digital version of advanced warfare (no i don't know why) and yeah, really not worth it.

Fuzzknuckles Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Do you think it's fair that someone has to pay full price for movies on Blu Ray and DVD, if they already own one version? Because that's what's happening here. Different platforms, different products. It is completely fair. Same as if you buy an album on vinyl then decide you want it on CD - you buy it again for the price of the new version, because it's a different format. I can't see any reason for discussing this further, logic has been applied (a rare thing around here).

ramtastic Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) It's been said before, but you can blow 60 quid on a Friday night quite easily. It's almost certain that you'll get at least 12 months of fun out of the game, so in terms of entertainment value, it's actually not that bad - even at a full price double dip.

FreezeMiamiVice Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) You can trade in your PS3 or Xbox 360 copy (must be in good condition of course) and get $30 of towards the next-gen version at Target.

carnage. Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Uh, yeah... more dogs and the addition of cats, totally worth it with just that alone! I'm not gonna say I would pay $200 for it, but it's worth another $60 to me. GTA will always be worth the money. I know i'm gonna get a fun and long lasting experience, unlike most games nowadays.

theworldfamous Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 The value proposition with games is weird. 60 Euros is a lot of money for a sh*tty game, but for a game you put hundreds of hours into, its a bargain.

Webster. Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Reasonably fair. If the game wasn't released on the PS3 then it would be extremely fair. But the fact that I have to pay for two copies just annoys me. To be honest, I think Rockstar planned it all just to get more cash. Seems a bit greedy to me by gaining cash from the PS3 and the next gen consoles. But yeah I think it's a little bit fair. Currently, you should be able to find GTA V for around 35 pounds for the previous consoles Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/747829-gt5-pricing-fair-or-not/#findComment-1066502929 Share on other sites More sharing options...
killahmatic Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I say yes and no. Well, ignoring the fact that I think no game is worth what they charge people these days. I don't have the new gen so my opinion is unbiased. If you're buying GTA V for the first time, its expected that they sell it to you for the price of what a new game costs. People who already own the xbox 360 or ps3 versions should, of course, get a discount. I'd say at least 50% off. I understand that the graphics are better and there are some additions to the game, but its still the same game. Same world, same characters, same story. There's a difference between going from IV to V and going from V to an upgraded V. They shouldn't be charging people full price twice.
