They want $100 for this. They are trying to make games expensive again.

In my mind, the bigger and more expensive the dev team, the more likely the business people are to be involved. Those business types really know how to suck fun and fairness out of games in an attempt to turn it into unbridled profits.

Buy a handful of games from small independent studios instead of this if you feel similarly to me.

Was the $100 price ever confirmed? I thought it was just rumored?

The only thing Rockstar has ever officially released about the game is the teaser trailer. Everything else is pure speculation and rumormilling.

Gaming industry pundits are gooning so hard for the prospect of $100.00 standard games they keep parroting this out hoping it will become true

Are you asking me if I can predict the future?

Well since you're posting "they want $100 for this" so matter-of-factly, you seem to believe that you can predict the future, Andy.
