There’s absolutely no evidence that this is going to be the case. All that happened is that the CEO made a dumb comment and CEOS are always making dumb comments doesn’t mean anything.
I assumed he was prepared for something higher than $50-60, like maybe $80. I really can’t imagine any company trying to justify $150 for a game. That price would drive more people out of the market.
I love GTA and Red Dead Redemption and I make 6 figures, and there is no way in hell I’m paying $150 for a game. But I would pay $80. I wouldn’t be happy about it, but I would still pay it.

AAA titles are already selling between 90 and 130 CAD depending on the version. 150 for the new GTA would not surprise me.
I am happy I’m a patient gamer so aside from very specific titles (Elden Ring) I rarely buy day 1.

Who’s talking about the president of Rockstar? OP was referring to the CEO of Take Two, the person who made the pricing comment
