I know Viewtiful Joe came out at $40 and it was a great game IMO. But your right many of the budget titles are budget for a reason.

I'm fine with the price of Wii games as long as they don't go over £25-£30 and I get them pre-owned or in offers, but I'd make an exception if it came with a really controller or something.

And as you're talking about Viewtiful Joe, I saw Viewtiful Joe 2 in Game for £2 the other day, but I already have (Hate it when that happens :evil:)

but still saying $50 is 'outrageous' is stupid as its been $50, and nintendo is the only company NOT RAISING PRICES.

Yeah, I have to agree with Spawn, it's just because recently as the generation reached it's end games fell to a much lower price. When ps2 and n64 first came out games could go up to £50 in some shops.

I was overexaggerating a bit, but I still think it's a little high.

Many people have been stating reasons for ps3 costs like, if playstation 1 were released today, it would cost about the same becuase of inflation.

games that cost $50 during n64 and psx would cost over $60 todays cash

i know your entitled to your opion, but as this is the internet, i will continue to hate it like a 10 year old counter strike nub.

something that has techically gone down overall value (inflation) while everything else has gone up seems like 'outrageous' would describe other products or how cheap it is, not how expensive when its the cheapest product of its kinda.

sry for the double post but this is what i ment

you have your own opion on prices, i know that, congrats
but its FACT that the prices are techically not high/outrageous. in overall value becuase of inflation, the cost of video games as gone down. however the xbox360 are about the smae value $60now comapred to $50 in n64 times. with ps3 games 60-80rumors the only console you can techically call outrageous or high priced is the ps3.

you may feel the price is high but wii has the cheapest games of all 3 and the only 1 not raising prices. $10,000,000 car isnt expensive if its the cheapest 1 on the market, its a high price but its not considered expensive in its position. expense is based on competitors, rarity of gems/metals, cost of cars, food, everything.

sry for the long arrgument but im board and really have nothing else to do. need sleep....... ill prolly read this tomorrow and think its stupid, but until then i just proved a point, cant remember what though....
