At this point, the Expedition 33 physical editions are just fake reprints anyway.

Anything that isn’t easily available at launch is a complete flop and games that don’t come with steelbooks are fake.

don’t forget if it’s a PEGI rated game and not ESRP it’s also fake

The huge success of E33 and Oblivion at $50 make MS's choice to charge $80 for Outer Worlds 2 even more baffling. They are sending that game out to die.

MS made the call on this so they're weaponizing Nintendo's greed to push Game Pass appeal. I can both fault them and not at the same time. Nintendo threw the first stone.

I'd say it's more MS pulling a "we have to price our games at $80 but look, you can get gamepass for a few months for the same price and get so much more" play. They're basically going to do what Netflix did with streaming- great value/cheap early on and then slowly get people used to it being shittier over time.

Of course, GamePass has gotten better and better over time since it started 8 years ago.

You need to get the version WITH the headsink, which I think is required for all SSDs on PS5. It's only like $8 more so still a great deal.

Nintendo threw the first stone.

Were you just born a month ago?

Were you just born a month ago?

I believe the phrase was born yesterday. Or something about a cabbage patch and falling off a turnip truck?

 

[Xenogears]

That is just a trope phrase meant to imply stupidity. I’m saying you’d have to only be looking at the past month or so to say Nintendo threw the first stone. Odd use of that phrase though, raising game prices is throwing stones? Maybe at consumers I guess. Microsoft’s been a dump truck.

I don't think it's just MS... I think we're at a point where there's no real "competition" in gaming like we saw in the past. Nintendo controls a segment of the market thanks to their franchises and the convenience of their hybird system. MS has a ton of studios that they're using to just expand the franchises via Gamepass and expansion into other platforms. Sony has the console market under control thanks to having such a variety of games from internal and external studios.

All 3 are gouging consumers in someway- Nintendo and MS with games, Sony with their subscription services; plus all three with overpriced hardware. Doesn't matter which one of them was "first" to jack up prices since we're losing on all fronts right now.

Of course, GamePass has gotten more and more expensive over time since it started 8 years ago.

Fixed it for you.

I really miss Nintendo Player's Choice / Selects.
