i'll be really frank.....i really don't care what others pay outside the states.....i'm sure the eggheads at nintendo, sony and ms ran the numbers and figured europeans, aussies and the japanese are totally fine with paying higher prices....and by the attitudes of some of the previous posts many of you have just accepted that as your reality.....fine....in america if we think it's worth it we'll pay if not we don't pay.....period.......i for one have only paid $60 for a game twice....gta4 (which i regret doing now) and obivion the game of year edition (which i did not regret). i have all last gen and next gen systems......all other games purchased have been used and i only use coupons (CAG for those who are really in the know).
the problem is not charging $60 for games like dead space, gta4, falout3, orange box, valkyria chronicles or little big planet. the problem is charging $60 for viking, conan, mercenaries 2, nfl tour, bladestorm, and all movie tie in games. and critics want to tell me and gamers like me that i'm the problem. i mean isn't this the real crime here? charging full price for crappy games? and then releasing them with bugs is the ulitimate in insults.....i'm playing merc 2 now on my 360 and the bugs are ridiculous....i'm happy to say that i bought it used and for less that 20 bucks thanks to coupons....and that's still 10 bucks too generous. i personally don't care if the game is AAA or if God itself (yes i said itself) decided to start a gaming company and make games.....to get a rise out of me you have to talk at least $25 or less.
some would say that i and others like me are the problem with the industry.......they can kiss my arse.....i got bills.
