There’s a lot of talk today about the price of video games, but considering what prices used to be back in the 80s and 90s we have it good today.

That’s 1995 in this photo and games are $100. With inflation that’s $195.55 today.

We don’t have it too bad.

@gpowerf Gotta buy Steam games in bundles anyway, can hardly be cheaper than that. ;)

@gpowerf True, but we purchased finished products back then. Now, the $60 pricetag is merely a starting point, thanks to crap like MTX, DLC, Season Passes & cOnTeNt rOaDmApS.
