Consoles have higher game prices, online play cost extra money too (on PS4, XOne), even a mid range gaming PC has better graphics than current gen consoles and a PC is more flexible.

Of course you can get old games cheap for consoles but that is even more true for PC.


The reason why its higher priced to buy a game on a console is because of the follow concerning high profile multiplts.

1) Most high profile multiplats are pandering to the console audience because they are the majority who actually pay for them (which is why the franchises have become so big) and also because they have to make their money back for physical copies.

2) On PC you get a digital copy of the game and its riddled with DRM these days. They are throwing you guys a bone. We have to depend on sales and the used market, which is perfectly fine seeing that we console gamers sales are responsible for the quality of multiplats you've become accustomed to.
