thanks for the link. nothing really new there if youre our age tho man ;)

its why i always purchase my games. the costs in the industry are a massive reason why innovative games are few and far between.

I buy games if I really like them after I play test them. I don't buy ty/below-average games. I hope more people do the same. Because developing and releasing a game costs so much, I hope developers will start to feel the pressure that unless they don't want to make a profit, they have to stop releasing bad games.

What a pile of crap. Movies cost more to produce than video games, yet I didn't see any DvD's for $60

Titanic, apart from being crap, cost $150m+. I don't think the price tag was $60 for the DvD

I'll pay for a game if it's really good. But I haven't played a game I consider worth buying (MMO's aside, since you don't have much choice there, and can earn your money back ebaying accounts anyway) in a long, long time.

I'm very probably a lot smarter than you. At least smart enough not to insult/flame everywhere I post. Unless you wanna talk about stuff other than statistics, and make a real point for a change, then STFU please.
