    120$ and beating all predecessors? Why the hell has gaming become this important to people’s lives?

      Escape from reality. $120 is a lot less than buying and keeping any of the cars in the game.

      That. And it’s safer.

      It’s probably alot more than that but definitely escaping reality.

        True that and I like the occasional car game as well. Definitely cheaper. Personally, I just find it crazy how much game prices have increased over the last couple years.

        And the gaming market has grown quite a bit, so that’s why they can do it I guess? Idk. And are people escaping more in general these days or are people simply escaping differently, so watching less TV etc? Would be interesting to learn about actually but maybe that’s a different discussion
