    Guys, do any of you think that paying $60 is a little bit over priced for some games? I payed 20 bucks for GTA IV and I thought that was reasonable but for example; some games are very short, (Mirrors Edge) and 60 bucks isn't worth it. What do you guys say?

    That game does not have online does it so I would say it's not worth it for that game. But for games such as COD 5 it could be a good price (£40) because you can play it for ages online ranking up and with so many modes you rarley get board of it.

    That would be around £40 which I think is way too expensive for a game, if you shop around you can usually find a good deal, example I got the limited edition of Gears 2 for £35 instead of £45.

    I liked Pure but didn’t think it was worth £40, waited 2 months and got it for £10 :)

    Some games are worth £40 but most I don’t like paying much more than £25-30 at the most.

    Well, I understand about the price of a game should rate on the content of the game, COD:WaW has amazing content, and it deserves the price of $60 but some other games, dont.
