Besides the regular 50% or more discount some months after release and humble deals... why do you think every single PC gamer say SW on PC is cheaper (excluding piracy on this).

I'm starting to wonder if you are just messing with me at this point.

A)  None of these games are anywhere close to launch.
B)  Look at the Steam prices vs. Gamestop

Currently
Witcher 3:
$40 Steam
$20 XB1
$30 PS4

Left 4 Dead 2:
$20 Steam
$25 Xbox360 (hey this one is actually a little cheaper on Steam)
https://www.gamestop.com/games/left-4-dead-2/75064

Tomb Raider (2013):
$20 Steam
$7 XBox360  https://www.gamestop.com/xbox-360/games/tomb-raider/88914
$15 PS3  https://www.gamestop.com/ps3/games/tomb-raider/88915
$25 PS4  https://www.gamestop.com/ps4/games/tomb-raider-definitive-edition/113246
(Steam is actually in the middle in this one)

Man, I thought if you were going to pick old games, then you would actually pick some that are cheaper on Steam.  I'm not even arguing that old games are cheaper on consoles.  I am totally willing to concede this point, and yet you don't even pick good examples for that.

More importantly, show me a game that just launched in the past 30 days that is $60 on PS4 and $40 on Steam like you previously said.  I mean if you are going to state this as fact, then you should be able to find at least one example.

So you ignored the first link that shows that in the last gen jump PC got 10 USD more expensive (showing that in gen 7 it was indeed average price on launch from 50 on PC vs 60 on console) and also that some games still launch cheaper on PC, and them further ignored that couple months later it get heavily discounted against games on console that take longer... is 3-6 months after a game launch makes it old?
