I just can't get into the "Houdini" theme as for me there's no attachment to it. If NIB games were $3k-$4k I could see buying a game like Houdini where I don't care much for the theme but still enjoy the game play.
At $6k-$8k+ theme becomes more important to me when considering a purchase and I also believe critical when it comes to resale value. It will be interesting to see how games like Dialed In and Houdini do long term when it comes to resale value. Original theme games like MM and AFM have years of history behind them but today's original theme games don't (well yet).
Has pricing for Houdini been announced?
