edit: As Hot_Heart has just highlighted, it is from last year. June last year. Why does random shit like this end up "new"

 

Not sure how you came across it, but I know Eurogamer has this weird layout with a 'Popular Now' section sitting quite prominently. Around the end of the year, all sorts of older articles tend to resurface because they're linked in 'highlight' or 'looking ahead' lists.

T'was via r/games on reddit. I'd queried the OP and he mentioned he ended up sorting of jumping from one post to another ended up on that article n seemed to be a lot of info he'd not seen so shared it. Seems that despite being an article from June it was an article that got buried back the in the day.

Ya the fact that homeless man got a few quarters is not going to register on database. 

 

But the internet connected guy seeing the quarters leave one registered person's hand and enter another registered person's styrofoam cup would register on the database. So it could easily be accounted for.

 

EDIT: Yes, I get that it is a placeholder price, and that Amazon don't want to commit to a $60 price "just in case". I still found it amusing. Also, what happens if that game gets 5 million pre-orders at that price? $100 standard pricing is a go. That's what. :P

You think this character is so anal that he's going to hack into whatever the fuck database this is (why is a homeless guy even have a money-related database anyways? No bank account, etc) and change this himself just so it's always correct?

 

This has to be the worst argument I've seen on this forum.
