Right now on Steam:
Tomb Raider for 24,90€ (germany):

2 months after the release.
And 19,99€ in key shops like G2Play.net:

Perfect. Another
correlation is causation argument with regards to TRs price. you do this on a regular basis.
This isn't a debate really worth having - game preferences are entirely subjective. In my subjective opinion, I much prefer single player experiences of grand proportions such as Tomb Raider or Crysis 3 over playing planetside 2. Personal preference. If you prefer F2P games, good on you.
The obvious implications of what you're doing aren't uncharted territory, defending the F2P bundle at all costs. You can't have anyone stating that AMDs bundle was better although if you did a poll on this forum, I can guarantee you that nearly everyone would state AMDs bundle being far better than the nvidia F2P cash. But you
can't have that, right?. You must argue that the F2P cash was better. It is interesting that the bundle went away in favor an AAA single player title so quickly though, yeah? Are you going to say that Metro Last Light is a terrible game because Planetside will have more players at 8am? Oddly enough while planetside 2 is a free MP game. You can't do an apples to apples comparison there. Let's take a hypothetical situation. Let's wait 2 months post Metro Last Light release and compare stats - I personally guarantee you 100% that Planetside 2 will have more players on steam at 8am than Metro Last Light does.
Guarantee it. Free multiplayer game, it shouldn't be surprising and certainly shouldn't warrant a completely stupid correlation = causation argument from you.
Anyway, enough. This is a debate that is completely worthless and NOT WORTH having. My original post was merely to describe my personal subjective preference, and here you are trying to make weak correlation = causation arguments to fight it. Who cares? Game preferences are subjective. I prefer one thing, you prefer another. Not worth arguing. If you prefer F2P games, good on you. Too bad you can't buy an nvidia card with the F2P cash anymore huh? It sure went away awfully fast.
