Paying 2x sticker price on a game is a scam to me always
It depends on what it comes with. If it’s one of the times they include the pass that gives you every dlc for the following year, you usually save money. At least if you were planning to buy everything.

pre order bonus i can vibe with (at least i do with wwe 2k because lately those games have been pretty good)
yeah Preorder bonus is awesome, and even Deluxe edition is fine. Pay an extra 20-30 bucks but get all the DLC (for less then buying it when it comes out). But you're right too they don't need to make games every year anymore. put one out every 2 years but update the game every year. All sports games should do that now. $70 for the game, then in between even if you charge $30 or something to get the updated roster it's good. Then the dev team gets 2 years to make your updates to the game.

Once upon a time annual wrestling games were needed because the technology for video games was moving so fast that by the time in a New Year rolled around the last game was completely outdated and generally every new game had a completely new engine. They could do completely new things with it, but we’re at the point now where like the PS five engine that they use is mostly top-of-the-line already. If not now gonna be top of the line with 2024 now that the PS five has been out long enough for them to be able to maximize its usage. So unless something drastically changes where they actually plan to overhaul the entire game engine a new game after 2024 really wouldn’t be needed. All you need to do is continue to release DLC updates throughout the year every year and also include patches that could potentially change small things you normally do in between years like maybe if you decided to change a little bit about the way like submissions worked or something or added a match type and what not. Roster changes though can 100% done with three large dlc drops a year.

exactly. The changes are so incremental that you're better off doing a biannual release. don't even need to update anything in between games, aside from roster. New releases are made for things like career mode and new match types.

To be fair they added a few match types this year (Casket, Special Referee, Ambulance). Don't know what they're doing for Season mode.

dude, all preorders for 2K24 get a free copy of 2K23. That's pretty sweet.

That’s pretty neat for those who don’t have it already. Two games in one.
