Are spectacular sales and insane discounts a problem for the industry?

Good Old Games says that crazy sales and discounts hurt the industry and gamers alike. Are Steam sales really "training" you to devalue games?

Publishers/Studios collect profit from the sales or they wouldn't bother....plus many of us gamers empty our wallets and buy bulks of bundles....hell,we even buy games and gift them to our friends/family..

I don't think you understand the article. It's not saying that the publishers/developers aren't making money from the deep discount sales, it's saying that the sales might be devaluing the worth of games in gamer's minds. It's much the same argument of iPhone/Android games for $1 devaluing PSP/DS games for $30. I'm not entirely sure if I agree with it, but it does make a lot of sense.

I do not agree. I will spend top dollar for a game series I love. But if it is a game that I can do without, I will wait on the sales. However if the game I bought on sale is top notch and a new favorite, i'll pay top dollar next time.

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

McFarlaneToys Reveals Fallout Series Figure

Here is a look at the pending figures for the pending series.

Sciurus_vulgaris42d ago

I preordered the 7 inch Brotherhood of Steel member named Maximus because I love T-60 power armour. However, which McFarlane had went with 7 inch Power Armour figures and 6 inch scale human figures that were poseable.

Garethvk42d ago

They are all good choices but if the show is good; we will likely see a ton of stuff soon.

Sciurus_vulgaris42d ago

I want Macflarane to a do a Fallout Line comparable to what they are doing with 40k. I collect figures, I would love to have some 6-7 inch scale T-60, T-45 and T-51 to display in my living room.

Garethvk41d ago

Variety is good and I am curious if the show is a hit as we expect; will Bethesda take advantage and announce a new game or just keep updating F76?

Sciurus_vulgaris40d ago

I think a new Fallout game would have to developed outside of Bethesda. Obsidian would be a good candidate to develop a new Fallout, but that studio has its own projects underway.
