Hi guys, love the Cagcasts

In the last one you mentioned how developers claim they raised the prices on next-gen games to $60 to cover development costs. Do you believe that? When I was 7 years old and wanted The Legend of Zelda, I had to kick out $50 for it. When I was a teenager and wanted to play Final Fantasy 3 I paid $50 for that. Playstation came out and FF7 was $50. Ps2 games... Xbox games... $50.

So how is it that video games have been the same price for the last 20+ years and just now they need to raise the cost. I think development costs for Halo 2 were a bit higher than Deadly Towers. I just don't buy their argument.

What do you think?
