I don't understand why everyone things that $60 is some ridiculous amount of money to pay for something. I've seen this sentiment echoed elsewhere and don't understand it. $60 is relative chump change.
I agree completely. Movies in my area now go for $10.50 for about two hours of entertainment (many actually achieving no entertainment value whatsoever, but that's a different issue). When I buy a game, I typically am playing over 20 hours through the season, especially a sports title (which is most of what I buy).
