I sure do hope this comes true because there is no way that GeOW 1.5, Halo 2.5, GTA 4TL, Movie Gear Solid 4 HD(hell blu ray's are only $25, so why is this HD movie $60), Rehash Evil 5, and Unfarted Drakes Fortune for a nearly 2 year old game are all worth $60.

lol sorry I had to spice things up a little being that this is system wars.:P

Not to burst your bubble, but don't take anything that Yahoo says about gaming seriously. Anytime they try to predict something it doesn't happen. And frankly I don't see $60 games going away. We may see price drops to $50 come much faster, but that $60 pricepoint is here to stay.

So they are saying that games get cheaper after a while? Wow, I'm impressed by those analysts. What would we do without them?

The only thing exclusive to consoles seems to be the price of games...I can't remeber the last time I paid 60 dollars for a game...bought Mass Effect and that was 19.99 on Steam...lol...well, I'll be honest I DID pay 50 bux for left 4 dead then it went on sale like a day later lol

What's wrong with buying a game you have been tracking for months on the first day? Especially on the PS3/Wii where most of their games are still full price. So what difference does it make if I waited to buy Zelda : TP now or at it's launch....its still full price.

Anyway, that's one thing I like about the 360. It's games go on sale the quickest.

I dont know about you but here in the UK ps3 games DO NOT go down in price, and pre owned games are nearly as expensive excpet the disk is slightly scratched... Plus buying pre owned means that your not helping the devs one bit, which means less good games...

I dont get why people complain about game prices. With inflation, the only time games have been cheaper was the second half or so of last gen. Games were far more expensive in the past than they are now. Not to mention a lot of carts costed $60.

Where do you live? Either way, there are plenty of great games as it is, i normally buy them first and in VERY rare occasions i buy a game early. In fact the only game this gen i bought in the first week of launch was Bioshock and that was only because Blockbuster have first week deals on big games Too bad the game was utter CRAP

That's because the Canadian dollar is pretty weak right now. I think it's like 1 us dollar to 80 cents in Canada.

Biggest online retailers :P...I don't even know...I sometimes pre-order games from shops,but that's it.Like I said before I never order online..My brother does sometimes though...And I guess we don't agree about the game Bioshock.
