Truth. Only company that seems to one up their work every time is Bethseda with the Elder of the scrolls series. Everything else just disappoints at every turn, and has been since BF2 same out back in 2004.
How much was CS:S stand alone when HL2 came out? $30?

One thing is for certain. We ain't bringing down the CS:S pub for CS:GO.
I hope for two healthy TD servers at one time.

yeah i would guess it was $30 but that was expensive for a game when it came out.
I find if funny that they will be asking LESS for cs:go than CS:S shows me what they really think of the game.

Wrong. It doesn't show anything at all. Games nowaday doesn't need a big selling price to show its "quality". Valve is a big studio and they decided to go at this price to get a lot more people buying it. Also, DLCs will come, no worry for that. You will get your 30$ game.

idk, if you go to gamestop.com and search new titles by price, you won't find a single title that looks better than garbage for under the normal $59.99 price tag. TF2 was more stand alone than $15 lol.
I mean if retailers are selling the game for $15 and making a profit, that means Valve is selling it for even less to them.. Smells fishy to me, but hey just like with every other developer trap ill walk right into it. I can part with a pizza for the sake of trying a new cs:s game lol.
but I'm calling 'CZ' right now.
yup
That's not really now it works..
For example EA bring's out a game at some stupid inflated price, just to milk over the stupid gamers (me included) with a $60+ tag then 2 months later (or less) you drop the price to $14.99...
You get to milk Stupid fucks for $60, then discount it and get all the cheap Fucks.
That's how you make money.
Valve wants people to play their games (and get off that 1.6 dinosaur) for years to come, hence the Price vs Product development.
EA wants money, hence the Price vs Product development.

dunno if i agree with that. there were people spending 50+ dollars for BETA access. If a game is worth buying it worth paying more for $15 for.... $30 is still half the price any other quality game sells for today

15$ seems pretty reasonable, considering how broken a lot of aspects currently are. I'm hoping that some map designing pros help fix some of the maps that valve "fixed". Currently, Nuke is terrible and imbalanced as fuck.

I bet you will get it in the end , because if it actually takes off a good portion of your css community goes with it , if it flops then good call on your half.
Can't see it flopping though .
