| Quote: | | "I think that games should be priced based on the value proposition, so some games should be priced higher, but I don't think the publishers have the collective will to charge more. My guess is that $59.99 will be the price point. I would applaud the publishers if they tried to charge $69.99, although gamers would probably get upset," said Wedbush Securities' Michael Pachter. |

Analysts are scum. They think they predict coming events, based on past observations ... something that has been dismissed as wrong over and over again.

Charge more, see more piracy.
Charge lesser, see lesser piracy.
Develop better, charge lesser, see even lesser piracy.
Is that really THAT difficult for them to understand?!

They can charge 100 EUR. Or 200. And Pachter can pay it. I don't care at all.

Most of the games aren't worth $60 and he thinks they should be more? $50 was a good price for PC Games. Hell, most of the shit I play is F2P games... Hawken (man I love this f'ing game), Blacklight Retribution, Planetside 2, FireFall (once they do the overhaul at least, it's on the back burner now) and then cheap shit like Special Forces: Team-X (best game nobody plays, meh).

The trend in gaming is 10-20$ indie games, ftp models, microtransactions etc.
Full price games are becomming a thing of the past.
It is true that games did not increase in price for say 20 years, but that's not the whole story.

Not sure if lowering the price would reduce the piracy much. People will just find other excuses to pirate games.
shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

It certainly would inspire me to stop paying for software.
Yes, yes I'm back.

How is anyone allowing Pachter to voice his opinions? I mean, the guy is clearly deluded and biased.

Why do people even care what this buffoon has to say?
He's been mostly wrong with his predictions and just keeps spitting out these dumbshit remarks.

And just think, this clueless sack of shit is making a comfortable six figure salary for sitting in his chair all day and spewing absolute nonsense about a subject he knows fuck all about. It's people like him that are responsible for the state of the world today. Sad.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

I'm sure he'll want DLC to follow this price increase logic as well.

This clown has been wrong so many times and yet he's some kind of rockstar analyst. But when Paris Hilton is also famous, I guess it's not surprising.
