The problem is not the companies that keep charging such crazy prices, it's the idiot consumers who keep paying it.
Than dont buy it idiot. Its something we want, they give it to us, than we deside if its to expensive or if we want it bad enough. Wait, jesus you probably pay 1000€ to have an apple on your phone and 500€ to have some letters on your shirt. Dont bother f1 fans dude
Not the ones paying it but the ones who pre-order without even watching a review
@@satolatifi24 Those ass-hats are part of the problem also.
Yeah I had no idea it was this bad until I read an article that breakdowns the economy of the annual sports games and it turns out the majority of people not only pre order the game, but most people actually buy premium editions that are like $100, it's crazy. EA, 2K and so on are 100% right to charge an insane amount of money for annual cosmetic updates that took 2 months of work, since people are dumb enough to buy them no matter what.
@@Baguenaudeuri am more the stupid consummer who bought my 2 favorites sport annually hockey and f1. Even if it look similar as the previous game, I still put 40-100 hours on those game. I bought the physical.
I think a reasonable pricing for this could be £20-£35 and an extra £5-£10 for premium content, it's just too little content and F1 series barely survives because of multiplayer
How about 1 game that gets £20 DLC every year. Then you could access every version of the game from one place, and all that. IT would be so much better
@@calebhernandez4233less profit
@@calebhernandez4233The game would be 400gb after a few years
At least 60 for normal and 70 for champion edition.
The F1 game survives through career mode and it's mods NOT mp
I still remember how hyped I was for F1 2010 and playing it for the first time feeling like a kid again playing an official F1 game on console (I never had a PS3) so its a shame to see the state of the franchise now. Features removed, older games delisted. It just seems like the passions gone. I can only hope that Codemasters/EA lose exclusivity in the future in the same way EA lost exclusivity for Star Wars and FIFA. I don't want codies to stop making F1 games but I just want other studios to take a crack at it like how in the 90s/2000s we had the hardcore sims from Geoff Crammond and the arcade F1 games from Psygnosis and ironically, EA.
I remember being hyped for the F1 games too when F1 2010 was coming. Since then my interest dropped and EA taking it over killed my interest. I did buy F1 22 (on sale I think), just to see if I could win the championship in My Team (I didn’t have enough time to find out in the free trial)
Just correcting about the discount, the 15% is only for the Champion Edition and not for the Standard, normal Ea play too doesnt have access to the f1 24 until end of cycle
oh of course it isnt
And I'd bet that EA Play only grants access to the standard edition. Just like Gamepass does with the Forza Horizons.
Reiza’s automobilista quarterly updates are bigger then the yearly “new game” changes between the f1 games for 60 euro from E A
EA is Overpricing it too, for some reason, I guess thats part of their "surprise mechanic"
AMS2 is an underrated game.
The price is part of the new feature updates @@zekeaffy9647
Are they under license from FIA?
@@zekeaffy9647 FOM and FIA might want a bigger cut, since the sport is getting bigger and getting more fans
For me it's all about the driving and physics. I mean, I've already got F1 23 and iRacing. What's the point of spending £60 on F1 24 if it's worse than iRacing and only slightly better than F1 23? I feel like a lot of people (including me) will be unwilling to spend that kind of money because they are too busy with family, studies or work to enjoy a slightly improved version of a videogame they already own.
I only get a new F1 once every 3-4 years, there's no real point, unless its a major overhaul like a brand new engine
You are aware that codemasters can't add or change anything unless FIA gives the greenlight. And codemasters can only change so much of the handling by the feedback they get from the real drivers
@@weybye91 If you jump next time you might get the point.
@@nover0570 so since you know so much, how should codemasters change the handling of the cars without input of the real life drivers? And what can they change that doesn't go against the license ?
@@weybye91 the engine perhaps
If there's *ever* a game that warranted going live service, it's F1. Iterative updates year over year with no fundamental changes is the perfect candidate.....so long as EA wasn't in charge. Charge me for the base F1 experience, give me seasonal updates. I can almost 1000000% guarantee you that they are not re-scanning tracks every year. Look at the length of time it takes iRacing to get a track from scanned to release candidate. Ain't no way Codies and EA are achieving that.
Codemasters never ever ever claimed to be rescanning every track every year. Matter of fact they don't even scan them. But for 22 we had a couple tracks updated (3 I believe and a brand new track with miami) for 23 we had 2 brand new tracks (Vegas and Qatar) and Jeddah was updated, For 24 They rebuilt and updated Spa and Silverstone.
@@Spider-Man62 only reason those tracks were updated, was the updates were done to the real life track
Well yeah no one is talking about it because it's EA and no matter how much you open your yapp they will never change, if y'all keep buying then don't complain.
Well researched and edited video mate, top draw.
Ubisoft have had Pre order exclusive missions for more than a decade, and nobody seems to have noticed it before now, could be the increase of new players going to Ubisoft for star wars outlaws! i believe red dead redemption 2 was the first game to go for the 100+ price for a digital bundle, could be wrong, but that in my mind was worth it 100%, and now i see Ubisoft comfortably aiming for 130$ with their mindset clearly being to just pump out games hoping for that one sticks the landing.
They price like that because alot of ppl are prepared to pay annually like that - Me I love F1 but my views on their pricing has meant that they had my money for 2013, 2017 and Im now due for another one and it doesn't even have to be 2024 .
Not just overpriced, not sure if the upgrades could be enough to be considered as a new game, it looks more like a dlc
To be fair to EA/Codemasters, they are contractually obligated with the FIA to release a full game every year
And can't change much without going against the contract
No excuse to make a poor game with outdated models whilst Modders make near perfection recreations for free
They can absolutely release a full game each year as a $15 DLC for owners of a previous game, and full price to new buyers. That is the crime.
@@virtualawakening2299no they can’t!!! What part of “contractually obligated” don’t you understand? They have to release a FULL game every year. That’s the deal for the F1 license. It’s why new features skip a year as there’s no time to implement improvements into the new game as it’s already in production.

EA sports subscriptions generally restrict the number of ours for new game titles. Plus, if you cancel and it is just one day after they charge you, you will NOT get your money back. When you cancel, it will stop at the end of the month. My general rule for annually produced games is to buy them bi-annually. It also depends on how often you play the game.
Steam seems to auto-apply the discount if you own those previous games on it, so there shouldn't be as much issue with "forgetting" it in what's probably the biggest user base. That said, this kind of pricing for yearly titles is why I do not buy every new yearly release.
depends on the player, 1st group settled (mid to high tier equipment) f1 simracers will surely buy, 2nd group casual players (low tier or gamepad equipment) will wait for sale, and lastly the 3rd group newcomers (controller to keyboard users) will try and like then elevate the following year or try and shelve will touch the game again after a year or two. You can not have different prices amongst the group hence either you buy it at that price or don't buy it at all.
If you own a previous version, then the 2024 version should be a mere $15 DLC. ACC, RF2, AMS2 don't require you to buy a new game each year. Only EA Sports. Only diehards will buy full price every single year before they realize they could have even subscribed to iRacing all these years for maybe 4 times the cost.
I cant see the issue im sry, dont buy it then. Like legit that simple. We dont make them, we dont do all the work. We dont get a say. You buy or you dont. That simple Doesnt matter if we think its right or not. Doesnt change the dynamics.
The same can be said for voting for your politician...
Here in India, the games are released cheaply and if people want, they can ask their Indian friends to gift them the games instead, these games release between 15-50 dollars maximum. All the Fallout games here is just 1.5 dollars during the special offer.
Funny that on steam it says "VR Supported" but it is considered unplayable by most because the performance is dreadful when cornering, yet for £60 they STILL refuse to fix it
Fantastic video mate! It was really good of you to at least make all of your viewers aware of the EA annual subscription. I for one did not know about this, so you helped save me a bunch of cash! EA's pricing model is a moral issue in my opinion, and I do believe it will eventually catch up with them. It would be great to see a third party come in and make a new F1 style game, even if they didn't have any of the copyrights. There's a sizable appetite within the racing community for an F1 style game with more depth and a better engine (no pun intended).
ill probs wait till its on a good sale cus i got f1 23 shortly after release when the champions edition was on sale for less than the normal one but like i dunno if ill get this one, plus with the new assetto corsa coming out this year gotta save my money fro that anyway lol
AC Evo will be worth the buy if you like AC. I'm so excited for AC Evo too. Even Max Verstappen drives iRacing instead of EA Sports Formula games. EA Sports is arcade. If you lean towards true sim, then AC Evo is the way to go. AC Evo will also allow community mods! 🤯
I think all sports games should be on a 3 or 5 year release cycle. No reason the devs of these sports games can't add updated driver rosters, liveries, and track changes in an update. Give the devs more time to make a more complete and better overall game and actually try to implement new features rather than take some out and then put it back in a year or so later and call it new.
I came to the conclusion 2 years ago never to touch the game again. I’m almost exclusively on iRacing now.
So you pay even more 🤣I don't know what's worse F1 or iRenting. Both have stupid pricing.
@@wdmeister IRacing is actually good
I'm going to wait until it goes on sale, mainly because they made getting the platinum so fucking difficult in the last game that the only reason you would really get it is to play the driver career or team career (not a big fan of playing online) so it's only worth like $30 to me at most.
I still remember f1 2020 being sold at 55 euros on steam d1... now 70 wp EA. 80 euros on consoles... 80 euros for an annual game? They also delist all previously f1 games to force you to buy the last 2... they just delisted f1 22 with the start of f1 24 preorder phase. Also the last year f1 game will never go on sale so if you want f1 23 (maybe you want to play the story mode idk) you will have to pay full price. Sales of the f1 games are dropping showing that this tactic is stupid but EA doesn't care.
I guess like all the sports gambling venues, EA Sports knows how addicted humans are. They'll pay up for their "fix". Is this a better model, or is pay to win, free to play a better model? I dunno. They both have their pros and cons.
EA is actually really smart. Hell id release broken recycled games year in year out if people were paying me good money for them
Well, if last year‘s game is anything to go by, it’ll be heavily discounted within three months and on game pass and PlayStation plus within six to 8 months
Why should we be talking about F1 being overpriced? It has been since it costs more than 40-50$.
I will wait to play the 1 hour playtest on gamepass to have an idea if I’m going to buy it or not
they said if you have F1 22, 23 you would get a discount but I don’t see it anywhere I look
Ive been playing the games since 2010. This is the FIRST time ive witnessed alot of people voting with their wallets and not buying 24 simply because of the same engine and no new content
You make a bunch of great points but acting like this is EA only and this is only recent is delusional tbh. The issue is that people keep buying it and I keep buying it bc I wanna play career Day 1. Voting with your wallet is the only thing that actually brings change cuz money is all these companies care about.
Ahhh so you are one of those people that doesn't understand that EA/Codemasters are under contract by FIA, just like EA were with FIFA
@@weybye91 they’re under contract by Liberty media but that doesn’t change the fact that the contract doesn’t tell them they can’t innovate or make a good game
@@Spider-Man62 so in the video beside the price, he whines about bad handling, which can't change without feedback from the fucking drivers. And they aren't allowed to just change the tracks. So to make a better game, what should codemasters do? LIM DOESN'T MAKE THE RULES OF THE SPORT, NOR DO THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE TRACKS OR CARS, THATS FIA. it's true LIM owns F1 BUT FIA MAKES THE FUCKING RULES AND REGULATIONS. Shows how little you know about the sport
@@Spider-Man62 and btw it's the FI fucking A that are licens holders of all 4 whelled motor sport
@@weybye91 they can change the ai so you don't get killed in a straightline. they change the handling every year but somehow gets worse. the best 2 things they've done since f1 2021 was allowing more freedom with setups and allowing controller players to actually calibrate the controller properly. Also they don't need permission to fix bugs they've had for nearly a decade
The fact that EA jacked up the price from 2020 to 2021 alone was enough reason to not buy them. I guess for this one, regardless of the "features" (especially career mode) getting improved and added, I'm quite unlikely to buy it. I'll at best give it a try on Xbox Game Pass, and then maybe if I like it, I'll instead...
I got 2017 and ever since then they have offered literally nothing attractive since the EA takeover. I had a feeling they would leech it of its soul to get money.
Welcome to EA. I buy the game about once every 5 years and it makes it worth it
They used to have a decent price when CM practiced regional prices. Then came EA and no more regional prices for anybody, quite the opposite, we pay more than even US.
This is why you don't pay full price for these games, you wait untill they either go on sale down the road or get added to either GamePass or given away as part of the free monthly games for Playstation. I haven't purchased an F1 game for years now, and year after year I still manage to play n enjoy these games down the road. Unless you really want to play these games right away, then there is a 'premium price' for that, just like going to the movies or watching it later on TV or Netflix or whatever.
the F1 games rarely if ever go on sale anymore though
As we understand F1 licence is highly costly that still doesn't justify the price. They would profit even more if more people could and have interest into buying the game. But it's all about what EA research finds the public will be buying it anyway (fanboys included) and keeps it at this price and take profit.
Electronic Arts strikes again. I'll stick to my Dirt Rally 2.0 and my F1 2020.
I do believe that Dirt Rally 2.0 to this day has more live players than EA Sports WRC on Steam. Even though I totally suck at Dirt Rally 2.0 and have converted to WRC. I won't buy next year's WRC. I don't need to and can't see how next year's WRC will be but only a tiniest bit better. WRC and Wreckfest are my "relaxation" games. 😊
I'm probably going to wait until its on a sale, i love f1 and the f1 games but the changes look very minimal so far
Purchasing any new release has turned into a mugs game it’s like buying a new car and having to wait 2 months for the wheels to arrive!
i always play last years game until the new one is discounted. i think theyd maximize sales if they were smarter. upselling additional content while keeping base game at 30/40 usd seems much more promising.
how do they release an f1 game every year? what changes exactly?
Basically who is in what team. Drivers get fired and hired and switch teams and such. And maybe a manufacturer or team gains an advantage over others. If you're like me, and "Who cares? How does that affect how I drive?" then you don't need to get the new game until they make real physics changes. But if it's EA Sports, it will always lean towards the arcade and away from hardcore sim racing. So it's basically about balancing the power to each manufacturer in the current season and having the correct names in each team for that year, if that matters to you. They do smoke and screens to try and fool you into believing there some kind of revolutionary change when the tracks are 3 or more years outdated...
don't get the new game, just get the f1 24 mod for f1 23
It should be one game every two years for full price, with a 10 dollar dlc for the updates on the in between years. Now the story and mechanics only change every two years already anyway, but they ask for full price every year nonetheless
You did not even mention that you can wait 6 months and get it on game pass or Playstation extra, which is exactly what I will be doing. Sure a problem if you race in a league but if you are a casual player, you can play the previous version until the new one gets releases on the subscriptions.
Treble A gaming is out of control from the big studios. I’m glad I’m a sim racer and a VR gamer with small to medium studios to support. The difference in price is huge and the big studios are designed to fleece you hiding behind super popular IP’s. The smaller studios create their product and listen to fan feedback to make it the best it can be. Big studios only listen to shareholder feedback!
I would buy it if they had it for Nintendo switch as 60 dollars for a Nintendo switch game is a still as they cost upwards to 80 in Singapore
Need a complete overhaul, I’ve never known PlayStation to piggyback an old gen console as they currently are with the ps4
I will be waiting for it to come on sale
I got the promo that was 15% off F1 24 championship edition for owning F1 23. Then an additional 10 off rewards so about $65. Also they seem to give lots of PitCoins to EA play members. Some other games are worse when it comes to racing content or other sports content - Soccer, Basketball, and American Football which are money pits.
one of the things I've been wanting as long as I can remember, is the career mode with the possibility of choosing a real driver to play as. it's SUCH a simple thing to be implemented, it seems that they don't do it because they are lazy
last I recall if you go through the files for any of the recent F1 games Visa RB and Kick Sauber are still toro-rosso & Sauber
this game here in brazil costs R$359 for the standard edition and R$479 for the champions edition (the minimum wage here is R$1400) 💀💀 and when i criticized the fact that EA games costs like 1/3 of the brazillian minimum wage, i got called "poor" by some random mf, bro even if i were rich i wouldn't pay 400 bucks for a recycled game 🗿🗿🗿💀
I think i skip the pre sale, may be on sale i grab it, but to be honest i found 23 dissapointing and the vip pass a joke, its that i like VR-racing but even that is bad and there isnt anything new in f1 24. It isnt the price but what i get for it that is turning me of , already setting up my AC to f1 24 , think thats more fun.
The price is high but I already pre ordered F1 24 and excited for it to come out
I use a sim called Race 07 released in 2000 to 2010 on Steam. It is based on touring cars with upgrade packs allowing you to run GT and F1 cars. You can run a championship in a RR1 car that is a old F1 from 20010. Back when you had V10's and i have mods off Race department website mods for F1 tracks and cars. (I don't recommend F1 cars as talent files make bad drivers run well and makes it harder to beat them. The Generic cars have fictitious names so it is more of a fantasy season. There are some famous names in GT cars. And it is simple to setup unlike my Rfactor 2 that makes it hard to calibrate season. Simple menu and you click on track's you want to run. It is that simple. Lots of mods official and unofficial to make it more fun. As for Codemasters i cant stand there games that i have run and i prefer Race 07. Older is simpler and better. I hate codmasters stupid animations and Arcade stile UI and how it gives penalties for track limits. Its like F1 1992 by Microprose just plug and play with better graphics.
The deeper reason for this is that the higher ups don’t want you to own anything eventually so they’re punishing you by making you spend obscene amounts of money to own the game. Ubisoft CEO said gamers need to get used to not owning games and now Star Wars Outlaws is the most expensive game in history I believe. This is their way of moving you away from private property and ownership. You can still own but you’re gonna pay a ridiculous amount and feel like an idiot.
You're just renting a licencing fee for the year.
The iRacing comparison is especially interesting. A 1 year sub there is normally 110 USD, but take 25% off that if you buy during Black Friday (as most people do, because the Black Friday sale is common knowledge) + tax, and you are looking at around 100 USD/year, depending on the VAT where you live. And 100 USD is almost exactly 80 GBP. So the asking price of EA for the premium edition is almost exactly the same as iRacing, the sim with the reputation for being expensive.
When you compare the effort put into elden ring and the effort put into any sports game and see the same price being charged 😂 wtf is wrong with these corpo dogs
Is anybody really surprised the downgrade in quality since EA bought Codemasters? The games are stale and are minor updates with each new release at best. I give it 3-4 years before sales for this series plummets. EA comes out and says, “Gamers don’t care about racing games anymore” and then shuts down Codemasters.
They should do what F1 Manager does: decrease the price (from 55€ to 35€) and put new content in the game (Create a team)
Yeah i wanna play 24 looks like an interedting step in terms of driving mechanics, but ill wait 2 months and they will do 30-50% off like usual
No one is talking about it because it costs about as much as a nice meal for two with a drink plus tip. Or filling up the tank in your car one time. $60 (about $50 if you look around) just isn't a lot of money to most people that can afford a gaming PC that can run it. My only gripe is that the FFB sucks on a wheel.
I played F1 2020 till F1 23. I will not buy F1 24. Maybe if it's in the sale but I'm not sure about that. Right now I am playing Assetto Corsa a lot. As a full-time student I don't have that much time so iRacing isn't the best option for me
the fact the EA made no attempt to include PSVR2 support over a year after the hardware came out speaks volumes of their laziness. The PC VR mode is also hideously unoptimized and feels like the same code from 5 years ago. Changing the tracks and tweaking the career mode and calling it a new release is one hell of a stretch
I have bought most of the F1 games and have never paid full price. I always wait until the end of the year and it's around $25 CAD on Steam.
Everyone in r/f1game on Reddit is talking about this.
Im not worried about the F1 franchise at all, what I am worried about from all of this is when will EA shut down codemasters and kill another racing game dev like blackbox...
Codemasters is slave to EA Sports. That is real. There will be no Dirt Rally 3.0 ever. Only EA Sports WRC editions at full price each year. EA Sports knows how to dom their subs.
This video needs traction!! Agreed on every talking point.🤞 things need to change
I think it's a common misconception that the gap between F1 23 and F1 24 is 10 months but in reality that's not the case. F1 23 came out on 16th June 2023 and F1 24 is out on 31st May 2024. It's just short of 1 year by 2 weeks. This is the first F1 game since F1 2014 that I won't be getting on launch. The differences aren't enough. As you rightly put, wait for a discount when the game will be complete. It's £70 on PS5 & Xbox! They need to drop last gen in these games so they can improve the game engine. It's a sad state of affairs that shareholders are dictating how games are made now. They just want a quick profit but in the long run it's damaging the franchise.
Great vid!
First F1 game in six years that I won’t be buying
I wont be paying for it, its very expensive against other competition and its even worse in the online part with no race craft. £50 should be max just for the championship edition but EA are keen to rip off everyone and hopefully numbers drop to show their disliking to the pricing.
AAA games are always overpriced but it doesn't matter. Gamers still pay for them and streamers will stream them. It's sad but an unfortunate reality of "AAA" gaming
but you can buy previous versions with discounts, they are almost the same, Oh, EA deleting previous versions from stores 🤭
I haven’t paid for an F1 game since 2013, but with the new career mode features I will be paying for this year near release
That's fair... that is a huge gap.
Havent bought a AAA game in years for this exact reason. They are straight trying to scam us and sadly people give in. Havent bought F1 since 2019.
Everyone's talking, its just drowned by the drones that will buy it every year. Like damn... at least I can say ive only ever regretted one purchase... these people feed off of pain 😭
This is exactly why i wait until it goes on sale or it hits xbox game pass
From 2018-2022, I bought the F1 games at release, always the 'champions'/complete edition, and often preordered. But over the past few years, the games got noticeably worse, the handling in '22 was horrible, and there haven't been any historic cars (or tracks) for years. I eventually bought '23 several months after release at a sizeable discount, and I imagine I'll do the same for '24, if I even ever buy it at all. Their greed, lack of innovation (worse than 'lack of' tbh, they remove content and features, it's the opposite of innovation), and increasingly poor value for money has completely killed my interest in the franchise. The complete editions of the older games at least came with worthwhile additional content in the form of certain classic cars... what premium desirable content does F1 24 offer, 'VIP Rewards' and PitCoin? Hard pass.
I wonder how much the licence adds on to the cost? Elden ring does not cost the developer any money to licence? You use examples again that are licensed products. Just check licensed Lego vs non licensed. And EA play comes with game pass.
Maybe this year I’ll finally be able to afford F12020💀💀
Based on the last few games I'll wait til it's only a tener🤔
Oooooh EMPRESS.... You know what to do....
The price for F1 24 is fair due to the amount of staff working on the game, the high end technologies being used and produced such as the F1 car model, driver models and facial scanning's. Not only that but also the services being provided towards these companies such as Internet, electricity, potential IT companies, Microsoft account licensing, and many, many more. Also the rise of percentage income. Steam makes 30% for each consumer purchase. This means to keep on track with the company's benefits, they would have to bump up the price by $10 or so and add extra for additional editions. Don't jump to conclusions thinking (This game has good graphics but poor content) and this is the stuff you're getting because F1 seasons only happens once a year, and to keep on track with the new seasons, developers need to build new games from recycled content to make it easier for the dev's to add more content. Otherwise, the community might as well wait for another 3 or 4 years to really get the quality content needed, but that isn't the real world, the community want's to play the newest game to feel immersed within the current season, and I am one of those. But try and give them credit on what they have within a year.
The F1 games have stagnated since 2020 now. What I sometimes do is get one month of EA Play, play through the career until I'm bored and then stop the subscription. The online experience is terrible compared to iRacing anyway, so it's not worth keeping for longer than a month. I get why they release yearly though, these games live off of the yearly hype that their content creators build for them, kids and teenagers will never question this, their parents will buy it and that's it.
then you blame the content creators for blatantly lying about the game to try to stay relevant and not anger their overlords. Sad that they do that n not just be honest.
I was thinking about playing it on a HEN ps4.
F1 25 / Release 2025 wird nicht mehr für PS4 und XBO erscheinen .
All EA games are like that. Truth is, they have a huge fan base. People don’t mind spending the money for the updated roster, updated car models, and handling.
My problem is that I didnt get invited for the alpha, now I'm butthurt and therefore wont buy the game. Technically they got one more chance to let me in prior and maybe if im generous give them the money for theire minor updates.
Haven't touched games from EA since around 2011 - zero regrets.
I got f1 23 when it came to Playstation plus... I enjoy it but I also can't stand ea sports... I was a madden game player until I realized it basically the same game and the glitches got out of hand.. I don't buy release dates games anymore.. I learned my lesson from experience
Even the F1 manager has admitted that they were charging too much and have announced that the new game will be 30 pounds, not 50+
i might buy ea play or when its onsale(I play ea fc and nhl games and like most sports(football, baseball, wrc etc)) so ea play makes sense. then again its still so expensive
F1 games usually launch broken/buggy - this is why i just wait until the game goes on sale, by then the bugs have been fixed and its way cheaper.
ea play for 12 months is less than the original game, he forgot to change the 71.88 USD into GBP
I would pay it if it was current gen only and actually updated it.
I used to buy each new release. But some years ago I stopped. Tired of getting milked for more and more money and getting less in return.
I bought f1 2020 champions edition on disk for £4, could not be happier 😂
Last few years games could have come in an update. Rockstar make bigger changes to gta multiple times a year for free
Definitely waiting for the 50 or 66% Steam discount a few months from now.
