Yes, i knew that, but it said that players are buying less of the longer games.
Less time is spent on a short game, and they say games are priced so high because they last longer than say a one and a half hour long film!
That is just cod-b.....ks! And really annoys me about the game industry!
And the reason why I hardly ever buy a game over £15 anymore!
:(
Let me put it like this:
Games take 1 month to finish, 12 games bought per year.
Games take 3 months to finish, 4 games bought per year.
DO you understand?
Is that true?
I find that the longer the game, on the whole, it's better. I'd rather pay for a long, lengthy game, like Skies of Arcadia Laegends, than a short game, like Jak & Daxter or Pikmin.

No games should be priced above £20 anyways. Like DVDs! Unless they come with a bunch of bonus disk full of extras like Lord of the Rings!
Games are SOOOO overpriced!

Yep.
'Claims'
Know what that word means?
Let me help you out:
In this very thread, I'm announcing to you all that my console, Super Whitestripes Entertainment Fun Box, is currently sitting in second place, having sold more units than Microsoft's Xbox and Nintendo's Gamecube.
See, I'm 'claiming'.
