PC gamers buy way more games that cost less than $30 at launch compared to PlayStation and Xbox players, analysts say, and it's "reshaping the PC market" (www.gamesradar.com)

I find this to be true, the few new games I bought over the last year were around $25.

I have to really like the series or developer to pay $60+ for games, I think the last $60 game I bought was Starfield.

I'm considering Forza Horizon 6 but can't get past the $70 price. I am selling some of my most valuable Steam trading cards to soften the blow.
