Battlefield 2042 is $70 on XBox Series S/X but only $59.99 on PC Steam am I missing something?

Its not my fault they lowered the price for the inferior pc version, the version i am buying

More $70 quality you won't buy. 😂

@hardwenzen: Didn't you sell your 1070? Did you already get a 3070 or something?

@xantufrog: If you don’t start making sense, I’ll have you sectioned.

I sold it a few days ago, yea. But how am i supposed to get a 3070🤣🤣🤣I want one, but permanently out of stock. Currently stuck on the on board gpu🤣

@hardwenzen: oof. Yeah, good luck on finding one lol

According to what the online discourse has been so far, a significant portion of console gamers demand at least $70 and anything less just isn't worth it.

I'd pay $10 more to get away from those wall hacking, auto aiming pieces of shit on PC

I guess MS is the villain here?

so you are that dense.. good to know

$60 on PC is still $25 too much.

People still delusional they aren't jacking prices for any other reason than "we can"?

Mean, it's EA. Their own lawyer couldn't keep a straight face explaining how selling phycological drugs to kiddies was just like a kinder egg.

And here's Gamespot, the self-appointed moral police, Trump bad, misojimmyiz bahd, studios bahd, game fat-shaming. Game sexist. Game colonismismzms!

But we'll act as their PR. We like the monies.

Oh so MS couldnt had paid EA to make it 60 on their console? Since MS " LOves " their fan base lol

EA , Activision and Take Two. The best of the best.

@NathanDrakeSwag: @gym_lion:

lol

My PC is set up for work, not gaming. I bought a console so I wouldn't have to worry about keeping my laptop up to date for gaming.

meh, a pc nowadays costs $2k for a gpu, just the gpu. So whatever, an extra $10 per game on console is fine

And the only way you get that GPU is line up for a day behind a long line of bitcoin miners trying to cash in

Just like I said, it's only a matter of time before $70 is the new metric across the board. If games prove to sell well at that price then others will follow.

Ok so let all the scalpers and miners buy up the GPUs then, how does this affect PC gamers who can just run games on their old hardware instead?

Do you have to have the newest of the newest hardware all the time simply to run your games?

It releases during holidays, wait a week or two it will go for 1/2 the price.

I lol'd. I can't even argue with this as a cod player on PC. When I see a PC icon online, I always brace myself.

Not if you bought last year, 1660 super for $200 still kicking a PS5's ass up and down.

Well, EA is certainly a greedy company... We've seen that before.

With GP discount, the base game is only $62.

Reminds me when Activision set the $60 mark on PC with MW2. The "console" tax.

The game is going to be on Gamepass less than a year after launch, anyway.

You've answered your own question.

Microsoft is not responsible for the decision of publishers. Just like Microsoft is not responsible for publishers choosing to not support Smart Delivery, because they want to milk you more.
