Analyst: PS4 and next-gen Xbox games will cost $70
He also predicts that gamers will have to spend more money on their next-gen Xbox games as well as for games made for Sony's PlayStation 4 console.
Sources reports that during his talk, Pachter said that games for both consoles would cost $70, which is $10 more than the current high price most PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 retail games. The $60 price tag was $10 higher than games for the PlayStation 2 and the original Xbox.
Pachter's predictions would seem to be going against statements made by a Sony executive just after the announcement of the PlayStation 4 in February. At that time, Sony Computer Entertainment America CEO Jack Tretton claimed on CNBC that PS4 games would have a maximum price of $60. There's no information on why Pachter believes that PS4 games would be $10 higher than Tretton's limit.

phlegm An extra $10 isn't so bad. But, I am hearing rumors about it certain games being up to $100? The economy is getting worse and rich companies are charging more? What is this blasphemy??? Lets just hope the rumor about the $100 games isn't true, but I can deal with an extra 10 bucks... :-|
It only seems like 10 extra bucks but only think of the consoles price.

HaloUKZetamilkshakeman So.. about 46GBP, a whole pound more than Xbox 360 games when brand new, massive changes I see.
Not bad price for us in GB then :)
Not at all, they usually come down to 20 in a few months anyway.
Lucky for you, it's even more expensive in Australia.
