$60 Games Just Aren't Worth It

With the cost of retail video games at a steep $60, Travis from Leviathyn.com examines what you really get for your money with $60 games, and why it's just not worth it.

Considering that you can get them in a months time for $20 off(or even half price), yes, paying $60 for a regular edition of a game isn't worth it.

Who the heck pays $60 for a Game!!

Pre-Order Special or Post Release Sale is where it's at!

STEAM! the home of the non $60 video game!!

CBaoth4291d ago

some PC gamers are also guilty. From November to January I watched the Steam charts and always saw MW3 and Skyrim in the top 20. Sad but true.

Hell I spent $32 on Bethesda's latest turd and it still feels like I overspent. Should've just waited for Morrowind Overhaul 3.0 mod...

Specially when they're short *** games

Emilio_Estevez4292d ago

A game is worth whatever someone will pay, it's just a matter of how bad to people really want it.

I buy only few games at $60, most I'll wait til they are under $30

the author makes a great point about indie games. you can buy them new and get lots of fun out of them for a cheap price. the only problem, usually, is their replay value. there isn't one...

AngelicIceDiamond4292d ago

Lol, the aurthor doesn't make a good point. You can buy 5 indie games that offer an 1hr of gameplay, for what, 2$? That's 10 bucks ripped away from you for 5 hrs of total gameplay from 5 different indie games. That 10 bucks could be used for a arcade game instead of horrible little indie games.

Dragon's Dogma Is Still Amazing

Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.

A lot of the quest lines in Skyrim are good(not all and they don’t add up as a whole if you do thieves guild mage fighters guild etc) The dragons are very lame after the first few times and the combat is clunky as it always has been. The stupid sprint button is ridiculous.

Overall I agree DD is the better rpg game.

Both have theirs strengths and weaknesses but Skyrim should be so much more being the 5th game in Elder Scrolls series.

Excited to see what they add on to DD 2.

Unfortunately all they have done to Elder Scrolls since Morrowind is take things out (minus the sprint button which is so lame because you can kill dragon god like creatures but can’t run for more than ten seconds without getting tired)

I liked the vampire questline and the return to Morrowind was okay, but the problem with Skyrim was the lack of consequence. There is almost no point in the quests. After I realized this, I started messing around with the mods and then quit playing. Though, I did spend 300 hrs. on modded content, but this is telling of how bad the game kind of is.

If DD was the size or close to the size of Skyrim, It would have been the primer fantasy game back then. I hope they up the size with DD2.

5 Games To Play While Waiting For Dragon's Dogma II

Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.

gold_drake105d ago

cant wait for it, feb and march are busy busy months ha.

SovereignSnaKe105d ago

I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.

MrNinosan104d ago

I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.

DivineHand125104d ago

Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.

The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.

For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
