Wasn't Journey $15?

I know for sure Dear Esther HD was $10 cause I bought that.

The only way a 4-5 game is worth $40 is if it is absolutely amazing and has insane replay value. The former is possible with the Metal Gear series, the latter seems a bit more unlikely from my experience.

is the game 2 hours long on the first play through on normal or higher? or is it 2 hours long once you unlock the special weapons allowing you to kill bosses ultra fast on very easy?

With this money i could watch 4 to 5 movies in Brazilian movie theaters.

Does he not realize it isn't the length people are at odds with? It is the friggen price that is offensive. $20-$40 for a prequel that is 2 hours long is outrageous.

If they want us to "celebrate" they'd drop the prequel for free digitally on all platforms.

I'll just read the inevitable cliff note spoilers before the actual game comes out later this year.

Does it means that Phantom Pain will cost $ 2.000,00? Considering that every hour costs $20,00 and Phantom Pain will be a 100 hours game.

SO why didn't they just include it as the prologue portion of the game that is 100 times larger. If you are going to defend the length, you need to defend the cashgrab which is obviously what everyone is eluding to.

I'll just wait for the PS4 version to drop in price. If it takes too long, I'll just get the digital PS3 version.

Who cares how long the game is if you're going to finish it 10 times? For me, the shorter the experience is, more likely I'm going to replay it. I love games where you get the complete experience in a short amount of time.
