Zelda 1 was $50. That's $132 today.

Games have gotten bigger, better, and cheaper even at full MSRP.

It’s on Steam, so is the sequel

I’ll check it out. I’ve actually started keeping track of all games and have broken them down in different categories.

-Games Ive beat -Games I started and still want to beat -Games I’ve started but don’t plan to go back to -Games that can’t be beat but have put ton of hours into

It’s been really fun to keep track and share with my friends. One thing I’ve always wanted to do is input them in to a system and see a pie chart on cool stats like Most played genre and things.

The Legend of Zelda on NES was $49.99+tax on release in 1987. That's about $132+tax today.

Want to shut up now, or do I need to give you more examples?

If she's a Star Wars fan Star War the Old Republic is an MMO that may be worth looking into since you mention wanting a social aspect.

This is definitely one game I would love to see come back.

Look at this guy without the latest PC 12X

Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2, Gears of War games, Mass Effect for me.

Everything costs more now! Wouldn't be so bad if so many new games didn't come out buggy and unfinished.

Deadwind Pass

shut the fuck up

Fallout 76 just started a new season and the player base is very welcoming in my experience.

I know the name but I never played it.

None, I paid for the game I'ma explore it

Where are you finding $80 or $120 games? it's was $60 for a while now and is recently climbing to $70.

$60 has been about the go to point for a decade now for AAA titles.

$80 and $120 usually is some kind of premium version that includes optional features and/or has a baked in Season Pass for post launch content. The more expensive versions usually have physical benefits (Statues, art books, and the like).

Half of Reddit: They aren't!! Game prices don't even match inflation!! The first Legend of Zelda game cost $80!! Games should be $200 or more today, so we're actually fortunate!!

The other half of Reddit: It's the greedy, corporate, quarterly profit focused bastards!! DLC and micro transactions have fucked everything!!

My own take is that most games are somewhat overpriced, but not excessively so. And some games have far more value than others, so they really shouldn't all cost the same.

You can tell I am a Playstation player but I do think they prioritize this kind of content as well.

Uncharted 3 and 4/ metal gear Solid series/ shadow of the Colossus / spiderman and spiderman Miles Morales

And 50 for a buggy pre release is a rip off. I see you KSP2

I'm getting South Park vibes from this.

Secret Agent Clank Came with a tiny Clank figure in a tux! It was adorable!

On a more practical side I loved that Final Fantasy Crisis Core for PSP came with a Shinra styled case to store the rather fragile game inside.

Any Uncharted… my fav is 2

Any Gears of War
