How long have games been $60? I'd say for at least the last 15 years or so. So, just with inflation we should be paying way more, especially with rising cost of development. Even if you only got 20 hours out of vanilla Destiny it only costs $3 dollars an hour. For most of us it's in the hundreds of hours played. Pennies on the dollar. What else can you do with $3 and an hour of your precious time?
So, justifying the cost of taken King is easy. $40 dollars for what looks to be more content than the first game is a great deal when you consider the time is money factor. If I only get 20hrs of playtime, then I'm paying $2 an hour to play. I know I'll play more than that, as most of us will.
I mean COD is $60 dollars and you get 10 maps and a 6hr campaign. Then guess what? They charge you $15 for four more maps. There are several other examples of this, but the point is if you want companies to keep making your favorite games, they need to make money, and lots of it.
In the end I know not everyone has tons of money to buy games, and it's wise to make prudent decisions. It's all about value for your individual dollar. Gaming can be an expensive hobby. If you don't want to buy something then don't. But please, for the love of God, stop whining about it. Or be careful because before you know it we'll get nickeled and dimed with a free to play model, or subscription fee.
***lots of good points and comments guys. And of course the trolls. Keep it coming.
I hope the rest of you are enjoying the expansion. See you on the Dreadnought Gaurdians!

NO, then you're not even understanding the real problem here, its not about the money but the consistent lies. TTK is basically a subscription, if you cant see that then theres no hope for you.

[/quote] ^^^^ As for this bs? i havent been paying 60 bucks for a game for 15 yrs, thats just stupid or you're getting ripped off. When the original xbox released i paid no more than 40 bucks for any game. 360 was the only time i had to pay more than 40 bucks & even then it was a while before prices hit 60 bucks.
