AAA game prices on steam...
I find it slightly ridiculous that AAA games are priced similarly to their console counterparts at $60. When you buy a console game at a store, you are technically buying a disc with the game in it and the packaging. Steam games are digital, and lack any form of physical packaging, and therefore should be slightly cheaper. I think that depending on the game, AAA games should be $10 cheaper than their physical console counterparts at the most. What is your side of this argument?
Update: my argument has been effectively countered. I am switching sides. Disregard my original argument. I still want to hear from you regardless.

I don't dislike Steam, matter of fact I praise them because of Lord Gaben. Also, their service is incredibly dependable... when I want to launch a game it does what it's supposed to do (which is launch, I'm referencing uPlay which never works). But I'm always against linear story mode games such as Tomb Raider, Last of Us etc. So when it comes to "Linear Games" I never spend a full $60 on them. I go on G2A and get a copy for around $30 to $40. Rarely do I purchase any game for the full price. That's like rule number one in PC Gaming, never spend the full $60.

1 AntwortenOk first off I just want to point out it is that price no matter what online store u use. Second the packaging probably only costs them 10-50 cents. So u wouldn't see a very big price drop

1 AntwortenValve doesn't control the prices of games other than their own; the publisher of each game sets the price according what they think will be low enough to sell, yet high enough to maximize profit margins. If anything games honestly should be more expensive. If you adjust for inflation the price of games has actually come down since the 90s.

5 AntwortenConsidering you can download the same 50 GB game as many times as you want, there are associated costs such as bandwidth for digital games.
