    How much do devs and publishers make off new ($60) and price dropped ($20) games?


    If they can keep producing games and selling them new at $20, how much do they make off $60?

  2. How much is too much?

    i'm actually tired of the standard price structure. i think publishers developers should charge what they think is a fair price for their game. i'm tired of seeing good studios go under because their game cost to much to make a profit of the standard 60$
    price.

    and i'm also tired of seeing publishers devs rush games out unfinished because if they delay it any longer they wont make back their investment. and i'm tired of seeing sequel after sequel of the same game running on the same old game engine like call of
    duty because they want to make a profit under the current prices standard.

  3. A Simple Solution to the DRM/Used Game Situation

    The devs need teirs of games which reflect their level in price. If yhey make a AAA title like CoD with a $100m budget that games worth $60 if they make a smaller game with smaller budget that's a $40 game etc. I like what ubi did with fallout 3 blood dragon,
    use existing game and re-work it into a stand alone title and sell for $15 it didn't cost much to make because the bulk of the game is a re-hash. Problem is publishers like EA do this already with perenial games, using old mechanics and slapping on a coat
    of paint does not a new game make. See the fifa fiasco for nintendo wii.
