    $170 on the Epic Games store, or $25 on PSN. What a great value proposition.

      But then again, didn't Sqenix just release this exact same package for PS4 for $60 just a few years ago?

      (That's an honest question; the naming scheme for this series gives me headaches.)

        The $60 package a few years ago excluded KH3.

        The non-sale price for the complete collection is $100, $70 less than EGS is asking.

        I'm just a bit salty because Tim Sweeney pitched EGS as making the PC games market better for the consumer by lowering prices and increasing options. So far, prices are exactly the same (or worse, in this case), and EGS has only succeeded in giving me fewer options when buying some games.

        I don't care about having to use multiple storefronts, I just feel icky when they make bad faith arguments to justify their existence and pull stupid crap like this.

          Strange how people who promise that usually end up bringing prices up. Last week I listened to a story about secondary ticket markets with people clamoring over that excuse. You know, the place where ticket scalpers make their profits and tickets are being sold by people who don’t actually own them?
