Why are Video Games So Expensive?

[jeabombers]

Maybe you people could quit whining and grow up already. Apparently most of are too young to have been alive when the NES was around. ALL of their games were $50-$60. Would you pay $60 for that NOW? NO. But nobody complained back then. Just think. With inflation and the vast increase in production time/values, games should really cost $120. That's THE SINGLE BIGGEST counterpoint to stating that games are too "expensive". Maybe instead of growing up, you guys should just go back to asking your parents to buy your games for you so that YOU don't have to worry about the "terribly expensive cost." Oh, I forgot. The economy is "crashing." PFFFFT. Maybe anyone that believes that that we're still higher up than we were 20 years ago, by a large margin.............
