I don't eat at restaurants and I don't go to pubs. I spend my money on things I feel are worth the investment. I wouldn't think twice about spending $60 on a 2K game for the 360 that's on par with NFL 2K5. I would think twice once the price got up into the $100 range, sure. But games in Canada already cost $80 with tax, so $100 is not much of a jump.
Read my post again. I was fine with spending $60 for a game, but I'm not spending more. The industry standard is $60 right now so I'm not going to spend $80 or $100 on a game regardless of what the game is. I'm not sure why anyone would.

Regarding meals and restaurants. That's where we differ. I'll spend $150 on a good meal with the lady. Hell, a typical night out is in the $150-$200 range. I guess I'm more into fine dining and that sort of thing.

That won't happen until possibly the next gen of consoles. Even then, the price of games probably won't increase much if any.

My point is that I'm not going to spend more than $60 on a game when almost the entire industry is selling games at the $60 price point. It's stupid and is why 2K or any company for that matter doesn't sell a game higher than the industry standard.

I don't need to. You stated that spending more than $60 is stupid. I offered an alternate POV.

And no need for you to read this post again - there's so few words here plus I'm confident in your comprehension abilities

It seemed as you were saying I was against paying $60 for a game when I'm not. That's why I said read my post again. Here's the quote I'm referring to:

"Spending $60 on dozens or even hundreds of hours of entertainment over the course of several months, is stupid?"

If you said "Spending more than $60...." then you'd have a point.

Oh okay, right. That makes sense. But I did mean 'more than'. It's just you're not as psychic as the APF's CPU D when you audible or hot route

I'd pay whatever it is I paid.

$80+? No way. It's not like this is some ground breaking game.

Re: How much would you pay for NFL 2k8?

Depends. Will it be APF again with all of it's problems? If so, I wouldn't buy it period. No thanks.

Would it be what NFL 2K would've been if it had the chance to continue progressing before the licensing disaster? If so, then I'd pay full price in a heartbeat, but no more. No game is worth more than $60, regardless of the connection we feel to it.

If 2K didn't have to go on hiatus with football, we all here know damn well it would've been the best football game on the planet. Unfortunately, the disaster happened and we're left with a game poorly designed by a once great team that have clearly lost their touch, their minds, and their common sense altogether.
