You can't really put a price on that. They can charge as much as a good number of people will pay. If you can't afford it, then you can't get it. These aren't necessities.

Yep. That's just the way I treat it. I take it a step further though; I haven't payed full price for a game or game system since 1999 when I bought the Dreamcast at launch with NFL 2K and Sonic Adventure... and actually, I still didn't pay full price then because I traded in a bunch of old stuff, lol.

I didn't buy my XBOX... it was a gift. I bought a huge lot of XBOX games off ebay back when sellers were just dumping them to make way for 360 stuff... all wholesale (more than 50% on DISCOUNTED games). Bought my 360 (Premium) for $83. All my 360 games... used. All Pro Football will be the first game I'm buying new since NFL 2K5... oh wait, I didn't buy 2K5 actually... I got it as a gift! LOL!

As you can see, I refuse to pay full price
