Analyst: PS4 and next-gen Xbox games will cost $70
He also predicts that gamers will have to spend more money on their next-gen Xbox games as well as for games made for Sony's PlayStation 4 console.
Sources reports that during his talk, Pachter said that games for both consoles would cost $70, which is $10 more than the current high price most PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 retail games. The $60 price tag was $10 higher than games for the PlayStation 2 and the original Xbox.
Pachter's predictions would seem to be going against statements made by a Sony executive just after the announcement of the PlayStation 4 in February. At that time, Sony Computer Entertainment America CEO Jack Tretton claimed on CNBC that PS4 games would have a maximum price of $60. There's no information on why Pachter believes that PS4 games would be $10 higher than Tretton's limit.

Why would a family on a tight budget and being desperate have a console or be worrying about video games? pretty sure meals at the end of the day are their concerns.

This isn't all that big think about it....
Developers get more money to make another game
Self-Patching is going to be done
So the game is better and it is only $10 more
Not bad...

This isn't a big feel for the big titles. But for small studios trying to grow its awful. I sure dont want drop 70 on a game just to try it

I doubt that they would have the console in the first place.

The normal SimCity that was just released was about $70 so it's not actually that bad.
And I'm pretty sure most of the new games are about $65 on the current consoles so $5 more won't hurt.
