...videogame software prices have been out of control for a while now. C'mon, $50.00 for a game title? I was thinking just earlier today as I was browsing thru the Best Buy game library that $50.00 is too much for even a great game title such as GTA3. Then I got to thinking even more as I went thru the CD section: [thinking]Personally, I place more value on a $15.99 CD of one of my favorite music artists than I do a $50.00 copy of a great video game.[/thinking]My adoration of a nice compilation of music for $15.99 that I will enjoy hopefully for the rest of my life will outlast a game that will outlive its usefulness within a year's time (in most cases). So what gives? Why are videogames so high-priced?
