Rumoured from out of people’s asses.
The CEO of Take Two said a comment about how he wished games were priced based on the hours of gameplay provided and not flat pricing.
Which then got clickbait headlines being written as outrage bait hypothesizing that in such a world GTA 6 proving 150 hours of content would be priced at $150.
Which evolved to headlines baiting even more outrage suggesting the CEO was actually thinking of pricing the game at $150.
Then people falling for the outrage bait have been writing pieces or creating memes in opposition of $150 game pricing - which literally has zero indications of being a thing.
It’s total BS, and a good reflection of just how shoddy games ‘journalism’ is these days.
There’s absolutely no evidence that this is going to be the case. All that happened is that the CEO made a dumb comment and CEOS are always making dumb comments doesn’t mean anything.
The President (Rockstar doesn’t have a CEO) is also the founder of the company and made every single Grand Theft Auto up to now.
Who’s talking about the president of Rockstar? OP was referring to the CEO of Take Two, the person who made the pricing comment
Can’t wait to be forced to buy cars in a game franchise that’s literally titled “stealing cars.”
My uncle works at rockstar and he said that gta6 is going to cost $150 a day to play but you can earn real money by murdering people and selling drugs irl
Every time I wait for someone to stop at a light and I try to open their car door to pull them out of their car and steal their car, their door is locked.
You can preorder now, send me $ and start selling drugs irl, you’ll get in game currency once the game is released.
If you hum The Final Countdown while it’s loading, it’ll let you play original Vice City instead!
There’s absolutely no way they’re not putting an aggressive DRM on it.
Good luck.
Oh son you underestimated the pirate scene
Only 1 Denuvo cracker left. And their plate is full.
Just means the crown is clear for usurping
Or maybe someone could leak a dev build without drm…
With the recent track record of AAA game studios and their milking of long-running series, it might not even be worth pirating.
Honestly, I stopped playing them properly after GTA3

Absolutely was going to mention that one. That was probably my favorite one too… Once they went 3D with GTA3, it was fun too… But really, GTA4 was a similar game ( i didn’t even play that one much). GTA5, literally got bored at the beginning
lmao I’ll probably not even crack it, like ig it will be 500gb download
But, I wouldn’t trust any rumor right now. We’ve had rumors for years
It’s just inflation. The value of a dollar in 2036 is a lot less than now.
You know, I’ve read stories on how money was so worthless after Black Friday that workers transported their wage with a wheelbarrow. How come that nowadays, inflation just means that everything is fucking expensive, but you still get the same jack-shit paycheck?
I’m pretty convinced it’s not inflation that drives up prices, it’s greed.
In the past, governments didn’t have inflation targets. The black friday event involved the government flooding the gold market, dramatically reducing the value of gold. At the time the value of a dollar was directly tied to the value of gold. In hyper-inflation events (that don’t often happen in developed countries but do still happen in some countries around the world), inflation may be 50% or 100% or 200%. Sometimes way more.
These days (the last 30 or 40 years), inflation and gold have been decoupled, and instead the government has a target range of approx 1-3% inflation (depending on your exact government, but if you’re in a developed country then it is probably close). This was intended as a target that would allow businesses to have some certainty and was low so they could ignore inflation in their forecasts. The original target range was 0-2% set in New Zealand, but as it spread around the world it got slightly adjusted to a 1-3% range.
The governments now try to directly control inflation by changing the cost of borrowing money. You might have recently had inflation hit as much as 9%, but this is nothing like what happened in the old days.
In the past inflation was seen as a bad thing and destabilizing to an economy so governments put actual effort into making it go down. The easiest way to do that is to keep employee wages in line with inflation, but at some point someone, probably with an R next to their name, decided that that was evil socialism, and so shouldn’t be done.
So now inflation goes up and the government just sits there and goes “oh nothing we can do”.
We’re in a lot of trouble if inflation cuts the value of the dollar by more than half in 13 years.
!We’re in a lot of trouble!< Agreed
I remember when I could go to Egghead and get an Apple II game that was a little old or just not super popular for like $5-10.
Hey man, Zork was the shit.
It was. I had an Apple II GS, and I remember programming BASIC games that I read in the back of a magazine.

The leaks did have some singleplayer aspects but its pretty much guaranteed to have multiplayer with all the bs they got in gta 5. Its rockstar after all, they wouldnt pass on that.
Please stop giving them ideas
Do you really think sharks need training from fish?
they’ll probably do the fallout 76 method with a timed subscription,
which is why i play san andreas ps2 still
With inflation, $150 is about $40 in 2021 money.
I enjoy interpreting this as he’s signing up to do another one of those movies so he can afford the game
GTA6? I was hoping for Bully 2
