10 Most Expensive Video Games In Recent Years

There’s no denying that gaming is an expensive hobby but, as tempting as it is to debate the current RRP of games, this article serves to look beyond the average price of games. Whilst most of the discs on your shelf will likely have set you back £40/$60, there are plenty that are worth more than that. Even discounting games that have become hugely rare over the years, many recently released titles have come in at astronomical prices for one reason or another as of late. Read on for 10 of these expensive games from recent years, but don’t get your hopes up of being able to fork out for too many of them any time soon.

1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2/Black Ops Prestige Edition – Approx. $150

This was probably where the whole idea of expensive limited editions started.

Both retailed for $150, but they probably go for a fair bit more nowadays.
