@Bakken I agree with you for the most part. I get that Stadia is a new platform so deep discounts are going to be difficult. But the way I see it, Google CHOSE to have their launch at this time of year. They know what sales happen at this time of year. In fact I think that's the reason they chose to do this launch now. If they waited people would be spending all their gaming money in all the other platforms right now and not thinking about Stadia. So they wanted in on the buying, and they knew what they were up against. And knowing that, they should have been positioned to compete with some of the holiday sales, and they weren't/aren't positioned to do that. So that's all on Google in my opinion. And like you said some of these games are old. If I have to choose between paying $60 for Stadia's ultimate edition of assassin's Creed, or $62 for the ultimate edition of mortal combat 11, why would I do that when you can get all kinds of assassin's Creed BUNDLES for less than half the Stadia price in some cases and there were mortal combat 11 ultimate sales for as low as $49 or better?Google chose to launch now and should have been ready to compete with the holiday sales. If you're going to compete, then really compete. Don't just insert yourself into sale season with overpriced options.
