Some Math for Thrax

God Games did it best with Serious Sam at 20 bucks. Shit they even made their own engine and could afford to put it out at that price...

Let me put this argument to rest right now with some actual numbers, not theory or speculation.

Total Revenue Generated by Serious Sam: 154,000 units at an average price of $16.48 = $2,538,000
Total Revenue Generated by Medal of Honor: 706,000 units at an average price of $44.50 = $31,425,000
Total Revenue Generated by Warcraft 3: 836,000 units at an average price of $52.78 = $44,150,000

This data is per PC Data.

Keep in mind, average price is just that, average. Warcraft 3 started at $59.99 but has crept down slowly.

NOTE: this does NOT mean that we are going to charge $59.99 for Tribes: Vengeance. We don't know what we're going to charge. But it's not going to be less than other games, sorry.
