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.

This isn't all that big think about it....
Developers get more money to make another game
Self-Patching is going to be done
So the game is better and it is only $10 more
Not bad...

This isn't a big feel for the big titles. But for small studios trying to grow its awful. I sure dont want drop 70 on a game just to try it

I doubt that they would have the console in the first place.

The normal SimCity that was just released was about $70 so it's not actually that bad.
And I'm pretty sure most of the new games are about $65 on the current consoles so $5 more won't hurt.
