Is it true the games for ps4 are $100?

If PS4 Games Only Cost $60, They're Actually Cheaper Than PS3 Games

On CNBC last night, Sony CEO Jack Tretton implied that games for the company's newly-announced PlayStation 4 won't retail for more than $60.

"We're gonna welcome free-to-play models, games from 99 cents up to those 60 dollar games," he said. Later, he added: "We'll justify that $60 price point."

That might come as welcome news to gamers who expected another $10 price jump like the one we saw last generation, when $50 PS2 games led way to $60 PS3 games. But is a $60 price point really sustainable?

When in doubt, ask the federal government. Check this out: according to the U.S. department of labor's inflation calculator, $60 in 2006 would have the spending power of $68.54 in 2013. And if the PS4 is around for the next 5 or 6 years, that number could just keep growing and growing. A $60 price point in 2013 really means that games are now cheaper.

Well thats good. I haven't done any research on it to even know how much the system is going to cost.

I saw this demo. They had a bunch of people "playing" it on stage. I say "playing" because no one ever died. There's no fucking way a stage full of people are playing and no one dies.
