There are a couple of fundamental differences between a console game and RR3. First of all, the console game needs of, well, a console. Plus a TV, perhaps a wheel and pedals, and a place to play —and you have to be in that one place in order to play. On the other hand, to play RR3 one just needs a smart or tablet that are such ubiquitous devices these days, without any other equipment, and one can play anywhere and in any situation. On a 13-hour intercontinental flight? Check. Commuting to work or school? Check. While the family watches TV? Check. A few minutes sitting on the throne? Check. Abroad on vacation? Check. Killing time waiting for a doctor appointment? Check. While your wife is giving birth? Well, maybe rather not.

So this model is very appealing and convenient compared to console gaming, especially for adults. But I wonder whether they are really maximizing their revenue and profits by setting such high prices for a commodity that doesn’t get you any far in the game unless you are still a novice.
