This smells like an advertisement. Nobody's even played the game how can we know it over delivers?

Ah yes, Take-Two, notorious philanthropists in modern gaming.

They haven't delivered shit yet; the game ain't even out. I'm still not even sure this one will be half as good as the previous games because the main writer left the company and didn't work on 6. And 5 was already kinda sloppy, story wise. Kinda hard to do parodies of action movies when the action movies of its time were also going downhill.

Such a sacrifice! All hail!

That is a weird title, it talks about an upcoming release in the past tense.

This is why we shouldn’t quote CEOs

Translation: We know we're going to make billions on Shark Cards and don't really care about the drop in the bucket that the box price represents.

They could price it at $5 and I still wouldn't buy it. Take-Two and Rockstar can piss off.

Value for shareholders that is.

Since people don't read anything past the headline, which is why we can't have nice things, in an interview the CEO started the following:

So, we've established an $80 price point and a $100 price point for the regular edition and the Premium Edition of GTA 6. And I think most people felt that if we wanted to exert it, we had a great deal of pricing power. 

This is basically the CEO trying to justify the new, and very much sounding temporary, price floor for games. Taking what Nintendo started and trying to provide more bullshit to solidify the new price.

Probably going to be the new temporary price floor considering gamers are reportedly buying the 100 USD premium edition that has sliced content from the main game. Consumers give an inch, these assholes will take a mile and gamers are more than willing to take the abuse.

Sure Jan
