Why is this game so expensive still?

[ponder]

Because musica is a rip off, I bought mine at BT for R535 at launch.

I got gta5 from musica and it was the same price as all the local stores, steam was a bit cheaper but I was not looking forward to the massive download.

I paid an eighth of that price for FO4 and still feel ripped off. Overhyped to the moon and really not even mediocre.

BF1 is cheaper retail than digital atm.

Yeah but that's an exceptional case, though. EA being EA and all.

Bethesda also screws us on Steam by converting to Rand directly instead of finding a more reasonable price like most other devs. The part where digital gets cheaper is specials, which retail stores don't often have.

It wasn't very good. It basically did nothing that 3/NV didn't do, with far worse characters and storyline (for the bit that I played).
Although having said that, it's still a better sequel than Mankind Divided.

I wont even pirate it

FitGirl has a 21GB repack out with all the dlc & stuff if you wanna pull a Julie.

I thought Julie only borrowed episodes because the article was sponsored by DSTV... Now i learn she is going to hell because of gaming too. Wow, not a good week for Jules

I remember paying R350 for Borderlands2 on pre-order.

Those were the days...

I remember buying Limited Edition 360 games for R500, though it was ten years ago :-(

You can get it even cheaper over weekends if they have it in their weekly sale.

How can I reduce the loading time of this game on PC? It takes up to two minutes to load up the game on my laptop and although I am planning on getting an SSD next month I just wanted to find out if there is a fix while I am saving up money for an SSD. Thanks.

Nope, no magic fix for slow hardware, laptop CPU will be slower than desktop and more than likely some type of energy efficient 5400RPM HDD.

With the SSD it will be ~10 seconds.

Thanks, I thought the same. Will have to wait for next month then.

Be sure to get a proper SSD, hopefully you get a Halloween special or something that either saves you a couple of bucks or gets you the next size up.

I've been reading on the Samsung EVO 500GB that should be a top performer. What do you suggest getting?

Good choice, you will be very happy.

Because people are willing to pay the price.
