Is $60 for the PC version of GTA V a fair price?

60 dollars is a robbery! It is only justified if you buy the game for the first time, but not like THIRD time!...

Your fault buying it 3 times. Say you go into the grocery store and buy some cheese. A week later, they have better cheese for the same price. Would you demand that the better cheese was sold to you for less, simply because you already bought the other cheese?

Well, your post said "if you buy it for the first time, but not like THIRD time." So, a logical assumption would be that you will buy it for the third time and are therefore complaining. Since you buy it for the first time, what are you complaining about?

I'm not complaining for a God's sake! Why if someone tries to defend people, who buy the game for the third time someone comes out and assumes it is ME who buys it third time? Why i can't just be the one, who defend these people saying these things?...thats f*cking annoying and stereotypical!...

So you think it's f*cking fair to charge PC players full price for the privilege of playing a game over a year and a half late in which many players have had the game heavily spoiled for them due to the sheer amount of time between releases? You think that's f*cking fair?

 

It's fair. It's a new game for PC. It's 1 year old on LAST GEN.

But everything is spoiled for us. There's no people out there who doesn't know the ending of GTA V. :(

Nah, not my PC only friends.

 

Anyway, I'm looking forward to hear your experience in V PC. Y'know, for a baseline on how my PC will perform.

Well maybe because that almost never happens? And still, it is their f*cking fault. They had a choice. When there is a choice, you can't complain about the decision you made. And they can still sell their other copies.

First of all you have a choice, non forcing you to buy when they release. And Early 2015 several games will have release date like the Withcher 3, and its a new game, and for 49.99 Euro, and you can buy on sale for 39,99 right now on steam.

 

But if you want to play GTA 5, you have to pay what Rockstar want to get out of this hype. And if someone Think its ok or a steal for 60$ dont really matter, non of them are destroying the global market.

 

I could wish for 40$ but its not gonna happen, and since I like GTA and I like what Rockstar create, If I want to play on launch I have to pay 60 bucks for it simple as that.

 

And its about dollar per hour for me, maybe even a half a dollar since I will probably as I did with GTA 4 play it through several times.

That isn't exactly grounds for making it cheaper, though. I feel bad for anyone partly basing their purchase of video games for the stories in the first place..

Yeah, but it can be seen as a lot of money, specially if you have the other 2 versions already.

 

So if you are like: "OMG again 60 more dollars for the same damn game, rockstar you greedy f*cks!".

 

It's your fault that you couldn't wait and bought the game 2 times already.

The story is sh*t, why do you care about the ending?

 

It's all about the online son.

It's 40$ in India which is 2500 INR on flipkart. I'm okay with that. :) However 60$ is unjustified for a 2 and a half year old game.

Yeah.. its 40$ here... I've already preordered.

 

But 60$? No.. I don't think so..

 

 

It's all about the online son.

I'm sorry, but i have to disagree. GTA has always been for gameplay and story..

Just because they introduced GTA Online... doesn't mean that the story is sh*t.

I would rather play alone in 'single-player' and admire the game than with a bunch of noob squeakers... :p always trying to kill me.

 

That's why, 'single-player' over 'Online', anytime. But i will eventually play a little bit of Online after completing the game at least twice.

 

Please don't mind if i was rude...

 

Regards

The story isn't sh*t because online exists, the story is sh*t because it isn't very good.

As excited as I am, I think I can only justify the purchase if I get it for $45, usually new games are at that price in GMG cause of the coupons they release(20-25%), in Steam I believe it will be $60.

Remaster and a _lot_ of content. Hell yeah worth it!

I hope I can grab a 50€ physical disc with steam code inside.

OMGZ COCKSTAR STOLE MY MONEYZ 3 TIMEZ.

 

Would you rather buy FIFA 13, FIFA 14 and FIFA 15 for the same (it's even more than gta v where i live) price? or buying GTA V on PC once (if you didn't buy any console version) or twice (if you bought the old ps3 version)?

 

I'll take GTA V over some recycled same football with minor player model change and power Any day!

 

Yes It's unfair to pay 60 on one and a half year old game But it will worth it when it's compared to Sport Games or The latest Call of duty games.

Personally it all depends on how you look on it, on the one had the original GTA V came out on 360 and PS3 a year and a half ago, but the PC version is the next gen version that was still in development and has new content as well as the first person mode, which if you play the entire game in that perspective, especially if you played the original last gen version, that alone will give you an entirely new experience playing the game so it all depends on how you choose to look at it I think

 

Besides it could be worse, I am a huge ice hockey fan and like ToyGT said above me listing the sports games, perfect example. This year was the first year the NHL series went Next Gen on the XBone and PS4 so they focussed on that one, but they released NHL 15 on the 360 and PS3 as well, at $60. The only thing that had changed from NHL 14 was the commentary! No gameplay changes, updates or graphic improvements whatsoever.

 

Now look the 2013 GTA V and look at the XBone, PS4 and PC version in comparison. At the end of the day it's up to each person to justify the cost. For me I still have the 360 version but I'm gonna be getting the PC version the day it comes out because having seen the graphic enhancements, new content, the first person view, GTA Online and add to that the Modding Community on PC which will no doubt come out with some awesome stuff for the game eventually, that's enough for me to justify paying $60.

I just own a pc so for me it seems like a fair price, as long as it's a good, nay, great port! If this is the case, the price is too low even haha. I mean people pay millions to have a boring painting, while this piece of art rockstar created, is only 60 bucks! But then again, in some parts of the world 60 bucks is a whole lot so it's all relative.

Besides that, isn't it your own choice to buy a game on multiple platforms? Nobody is forcing you.
