$100 “ultimate editions” are ruining gaming
Video games have been getting more expensive in recent years, both at a base price and for the more expensive versions of games. Not only has the base price of games risen to $70, but some games like Mario Kart Worldand The Outer Worlds 2 cost $80, and some games don't even actually come on the disc, if there is even a disc to buy. One aspect of this has been the increase in $100 "premium" editions of games. While the name might make this sound like the expensive collector's editions that have existed in the past, these are quite different, and those differences make it clear that these versions only exist to increase the average sale price of the game.
