I guess it would make sense. Doing a big sale and someone missing out on it makes them want to buy it more.

I'm thinking that Mount & Blade was the 18,000% increase. I mean seriously how many of us bought that $8 game? Tongue I still love it too lol

Games too expensive? I remember buying games in the mid 90s for $49.99(CDN). Many new computer games nowadays cost.... $49.99(CDN). Factoring in inflation, games are actually a bit cheaper.

Games are free depending on where you look. But agreed i bought Frogger: He's Back when it came out for like $40 so basically there about the same price as always. Although i will say everytime i want to get a new PS3 game i have to throw down $60 is a bit rough.

In my personal opinion it depends on what games your buying and what system your buying them on. I can remember when games were 50 brand new ( on consoles that is) and now 60 i think that is a little over priced.
