A Bank of America analyst has weighed in on the GTA 6 conversation, stating that the game should retail for $80 in hopes of raising the price point for the entire industry.

@IGN adjusted for inflation from 2001, games should cost $270 but no one is ready to hear that

@IGN Fuck Bank of America. Fuck them up their stupid asses.

@IGN mf you literally wrecked the economy in 2008, stfu

@IGN Any idiot who pushes for the game to be 80 or 100. Will cry when all games become same price for whatever reason. Can you imagine Ubisoft or activision charging 100$ for their games? Even Sony first party not worth 100$ they are good but not worth this price. Please think people

@IGN rockstar fires union devs and burns india staff until 3 am so a bank can help publishers raise prices to 80 usd a real greed fest

@IGN No banker has any business talking about video game pricing Eat a digital dick

@IGN What makes anyone at IGN think we GIVE A FUCK about SKANK OF AMERICA?

@IGN They can eff right off with the $80 price tag. I’m a PC user, so I’m already getting shafted by being forced to wait even longer for it. With an $80 price tag, I’ll wait some more and get it during a deep sale.

@BofA_Help sincerely from the entire global gaming community 👿🖕 @RockstarGames $80 FOOOOOOKIN DOLLAZ for GTA6(base level cause im sure $100 PP includes some extras) but $80? Sure some people can afford this but I'm an 80s gamer and for $80 we'd actually own something that didn't need constant updating and nor did we need to continue spending $ for trinkets and skins and what not. This is what happens when gaming companies focus on satisfying big investor's rather then us small shrimps who from day 1 helped them build their gaming empire.

@IGN Only reason people would be willing to pay $80 or even more for GTA 6 is because it’s a decade defining game that pushes games media forwards and has the quality to do so. The same cannot be said for most games these days. Most games aren’t even worth the current asking prices.

@IGN Yes because in a world where everything costs more, why not make more things cost even more? Fantastic fucking idea

@IGN assuming people will pay the same price for other games based on popularity of GTA6 is silly.

@IGN Imagine how insanely based it would be if they sold GTA 6 for $60. Somehow I feel like it would make them even more successful.

@IGN How about that analyst shuts the f up, and stays in their 9 to 5, bank holiday ridden life. While they are at it, they can stick their greed stick up where the sun don't shine.

@IGN $70 price point is already ridiculous given the amount of microtransactions in games nowadays.... if microtransactions were taken out, I'd say $70 is fair, of course, depending on the game... People have to band together, rise up, and put a stop to greedy, complacent companies!

@IGN An analyst from Bank of America that has nothing to do with gaming, gives hours opinion. IGN, just burn yourselves down already. You’re completely fking useless along with all your staff and the individual who wrote this

@IGN It will be the last of an era. The console dies with GTA6.

@IGN You're trying to raise the price point for what? There's literally no reason to do this, and I don't wanna hear about the price of shit going up. Legitimately fuck off LMAO

@IGN Games do not need to be priced higher, and these sniveling economic leeches need to acknowledge that the price of games has gone up drastically in multiple ways; cut content sold as DLC, premium editions, MTX, etc. the shrinkflation needs to end as does the corporate entitlement

@IGN We don't need higher priced games. They're out their mind.

@IGN Fuck whoever said that, and fuck whoever agrees. Gta can get away with 80-100 on release, but drop that goofy idea of raising the price point. If expedition 33 can blow up while staying 40-50, so can other games.

@IGN Knowing what I know from playing all the others, I'd give'm 100 happily. Getting a quality item that you get 500 plus hours of amusement from? Priceless.

@IGN A jew advocating for the goys to spend more money for mediocrity. I’m in shock

@IGN Nope. I say nobody should buy the game on launch, wait for the price to drop, then buy it when it's 60 or less. They need to learn. And it's not like the game won't still be there later.

@IGN I need to talk to that Bank of America Analyst for a few minutes to give him my unfiltered opinion

@IGN $80 for a game is ridiculous. I would rather wait a year until it’s half that. Plenty of other games to play in the meantime. They are simply milking the IP.

@IGN I love how CEOs and “analysts” think that even if GTA 6 sold for $80 that any other game could get away with it. If rockstar charges $80, they word lose some sales. If ANY other company attempted it, they would lose at LEAST 75% of projected sales lmao 😂

@IGN Personally i would wait to get it. Never paying 80 bucks for a game most likely. They are already overpriced. You download a lobby to join. Not much game involved.

@IGN Fuck that bank of America analyst in particular

@IGN How about rockstar chooses and we pay? A bank has no authority on how much an industry should charge for their product. Supply and demand is set by the industry holder and the consumer that is willing to pay that price. Not the person holding the funds.

@IGN The gaming industry went down when bankers and asshats got involved—and continues to do so.

@IGN If $80 is the new MSRP, they need to release games at a higher standard. No more incomplete, janky, battle pass trash. "Here's a burger with just buns. Want a patty? Pay $5 more and mop our restaurant to earn it. And tomorrow pay another $5 to earn the cheese lettuce, and tomato"

@IGN Let's face it, this is GTA. A very "Established" franchise. People know what they're getting into when purchasing this game. Mario Kart World is not worth $80. The 007 James Bond game, looks good, but not worth $80. @BankofAmerica STFU!

@IGN This is the same bank that wants to charge you a fee if you use most of your money, like the majority of families.
