which doesn't make their decision less of a joke at all. it's the same way as if someone were to go 'well our game is pretty popular so we should make it $70' on the consoles.
only reaction that should be given there is a deadpan 'no', unless it's carrying something more than just the game. you don't go above the standard for the hell of it. there's plenty of popular, high budget, and high profile games that will exist at that level because that's where we've set the bar to be. this is your price, you're done. downwards is fine, upwards is not.
