Yeah we get ripped of in profits big time. One game costs like £2-5 to make. A tin of coke costs 7p to make.

Yeah it's the same over here in the UK things cost like 3-5 quid to make something and then they end up selling it for like 4-5 times that price

RE: PSP Coverage?

Um... Just because the process of writing a disk doesn't take much money doesn't mean games shouldn't cost much. The effort behind the game is the real thing. Each game has millions spent on it, not just the cost of a disk.

I don't think it's hard to find monkeys and some computers... well, in EA's case, anyway.

RE: Re: RE: PSP Coverage?

Dude, it takes a team of people to make most of today's games. How do you propose they are payed if we get games for the price of the disk? Then again, they don't really get those profits anyway... Read that article, death of the games industry?
