Each new GTA release tends to top the previous release, and perhaps the reason for this is because of the time it takes to release the game – usually 5 years. It adds pressure to the gaming industry and now every single game is expected to be an improvement upon the previous version.

Tomb Raider has made a triumphant return in 2014, and Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition has proved to be one of the most popular games on next gen consoles so far, and one of the reasons behind this is because of the fact it has a significant following.

Graphics are completely different in terms of comparing Tomb Raider on the Xbox One to the Xbox 360, or the Playstation 3 to the Playstation 4. There’s no doubt that the price for games has rocketed over the last few years, and that’s because the quality of games today is significantly higher.

Today many have longer storylines, more options in terms of online gaming, and occasionally more characters to control – which is the case with Grand Theft Auto 5. Long-running sports games tend to do well each year in terms of sales, like FIFA and NBA, and a high number of sales are pretty much guaranteed each year, so long as notable improvements have been made.

It’s also important to note that not all games are based on storylines or sports, and games like Call of Duty tend to earn their sales from their online gaming features, and there are many more options out there when it comes to choosing games. The higher prices, however, could mean that gamers are weighting up their decisions a bit more than they did previously.
