Cheap Games Becomes Worst Nightmare

Archive: 6 posts


Some of us gamers have dreams - ''If only games were cheaper''.
Well, the dream has come true, but could possibly end in a nightmare.
Some games that cost ?40 a month and a half ago, are ALREADY on clearance sales (In online stores too) for around ?15-24.
Some of these games were hugely popular as well.

I'm just becoming worried about the fact that some unknown console is going to pop out of nowhere?

well the cheap ones are usually not selling well which means they aren't good or aren't popular (old maybe?)2010-05-08 01:34:00

I'm not getting this topic, but I like cheap games. If there was a non-licenced (No movie/tv show games or party games) game for $5 of under, I would buy it in a heartbeat.2010-05-08 04:03:00

Steam! Get some great games on the cheap-cheap. Older games will go on sale, they always have weekend sales, and sometimes you get can great stuff for literally up to 90% off. I've gotten awesome games that a few years ago I paid over 60 bucks for, on Steam for 2 dollars.

They'll even do it with new games on occasion. I think it was Left 4 Dead, it had only been out a few months when they put it on sale for only 20 bucks or so. It did GANGBUSTERS. I think it sold as much or more than it did on its first weekend. Which really goes to show that games on the whole are overpriced. People will buy... many, many more people will buy if they were just priced a little more reasonably.

What about 3D Dot Game Heroes? Isn't that game only 40 bucks?

Sure, some cheap games are terrible, but I don't think the price really affects the quality of the games if the whole market is around the same price.
