Allegedly, studios "hope" Rockstar will raise the price of its upcoming title to set a precedent.

Do you really think people will buy it? I’ve played most of the GTAs, but I’m not about to spend 100 dollars on a video game.

You’re clearly not the target audience. Every slightly popular game has its whales. Something as popular as GTA? They’ll sell it at $100 and laugh all the way to the bank.

Something to consider. With conversion, new games are usually $80-$100 in Canada.

People still buy them.

Meaning this game will be MORE THAN $100 Canadian and still sell like hotcakes.

I don’t know though you’ve got to consider your target audience and their income method. The income method for the target audience of pokemon games is asking their parents.
