Planet Ivy: The current generation of console video games is certainly impressive. New games boast lifelike graphics, innovative gameplay and some of the most inventive narratives of any modern medium. With Sony’s announcement of its next-generation console, the PS4, these standards are set to soar ever higher. This rise in quality will come with an inevitable hike in costs as well, forcing us to reconsider whether games really do offer value for money.

Apex Legends remains one of the most popular Battle Royale games with over 300K concurrent players on Steam. In this post, we look at the various graphics settings available in the game and figure out which ones are worth the hit.
I can name on one hand the games I've bought in the last two years which weren't worth the money-games are at a very high quality right now
Depends on the amount of content offered.
For example are short linear SP campaigns like Uncharted, God of war etc etc worth the full price tag when they can be completed in a weekend?
I don't think so, they don't offer as much playtime as other games I play so they are not worth the full price.
nope most games are just like this now
Agree with Zha1tan above. If its a game like RDR, LBP or GT 5 all of which have good challenges to complete and can last 6 months then yeah, charge me £40 for it.
As much as i love GOW, and i'm just starting the single player for Ascension, i know i will be done with it in a few weeks. As good as the experience will be, its not value for money compared to the games which can last 6 months or have endless replayable value.
Over £80 for COD and all the map packs/season pass, as much as this game has replayablity, is a complete joke.
Its a fine balance, and not many companies get it right consistantly. I doff my cap to Rockstar on this front. I cant remember the last rockstar game i played where i felt short changed. RDR, the batman games, LA Noir all good value for money.
Last gen games gave us value for our money. Can't say the same about this gen for most games.
