"In 1983 an Atari games took a 1-3 man team and a month to produce with a cost of $31.95 at <a href=""http://launch.today/"">launch.Today</a> that cost would be $80.85. Today’s AAA games take 3 to 5 years to produce", with teams well over 100 (gta5 has a team of 1000, according to gamespot) at the base price of $59.99. In 1983 that would be $23.71.<br><br>Maybe the cost of games should go up. But to say we get less and spend more is just poor math and logic. <br> <br>I spent over $100 on The Division, logged more the 1400hrs. That’s .07 cents an hour.<br> Diablo III ————59.99 — 344hrs = .17 an hour<br>AC: Odyssey —— 99.99 — 110hrs = .91 an hour<br>RDR2 —————— 59.99 — 103hrs = .46 an hour<br><br>The value for the entertainment is great.
