Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+, but no..., Nomura doesn't feel like bringing it to the states...

Kingdom Hearts 3

Final Fantasy XIII

A new Zelda

Probably MGS4

Probably Fable 2

I can't think of any other games that are already released that I would pay more than retail for mainly because I have more than likely played the ones I'm most interested in which kinda ruins whether I would buy it or not.

Count your blessings. They used to be even more expensive.

no they didnt

games used to be cheeper, especially console games

there was a time when all games were 30-40 bux (all systems) but then they all rose to the $50 standard, then, for some reason the ps3 and x360 games went up to 60, whereas PC games and w ii games are still $50

For the most part yeah but the price of Phantasy Star a 8 megabit cartridge for the Master System was 69.99 oh I dunno, about 20 years ago and for me it was worth every penny !

In fact I have the game to this day. :lol:

Were you gaming in the cartridge days? Trust me, it was NOT uncommon to find games that ran over $70.

oblivion is a console port lol it was made for pcs

Yes... I know that thankyou very much. Did I say is was console exclusive?

I said it beat any console game for value, not pc games though because I understand that morrowind had a much bigger mao than onblivion, which means more play time and more value for money.

where in my last post did I say "Oblivion is a console exclusive"?

Some people... :roll:

If I won the lottery, I would pay MILLIONS to Yu Suzuki to finish Shenmue.

Hell, I would pay 1 million for him to just write me a small book to tell me what happens.

I dont play pc games much, but I know that pc games are generally better than consoele games, apart from racers (unless you get a steering wheel or controller for it)

PC games are better, they look better, you can mod them more, online play is better, RTS games control better, FPS games are WAY better (its much easier to snipe and shoot).

PC's are more powerful, plus you have a keyboard of buttons to use, which means you can have hotkeys so you can do things quicker, plus you can taylor the graphics and controls endlessly to make it suit your needs.

So yeah, PC games > console games, but you must spend more money on it, so its expected. :D

For the most part, agreed.
It depends on the genre, obviously. RTS and FPS work best on PCs, and games such as Oblivion of course. RTS and FPS for obvious reasons, and the MODs are what make Elder Scrolls Games godly (as well as for other PC ones too). Controls don't work as well for other genres though, at least in my opinion.
Biggest problem with PC games is the cost to maintain a high end PC, which is the only reason I stick to console gaming over PC gaming (albeit I'll be upgrading my PC for spore)

yeah if pc gaming cost as much as console agming, PC gaming would win hands down, and I think that at some point PC gaming will win out entirely, as consoles are becoming more like pc's already.

modding is something I wish were on consoles, I bet it would make oblivion much better.

Damn Americans, Brits, etc! Games here in Norway cost about 120$ a pop! Thank god for Steam and the Orange Box! :D But I'm sick of fanboys complaining about prices! Jesus! The 360, Wii AND PS3 are SO cheap in the US it's insane!
