Did we not all used to pay $69.99 and up 20 years ago for ****** super nintendo games? When people bitch about game prices these days it blows my mind. A cheap original gameboy game used to be $29.99
What the hell is wrong with $30 for a proper 3D game? Everyone's obsessed with iOS app pricing these days.
My kids (7 and almost 9) absolutely LOVE LEGO Harry Potter. I will confess to enjoying it very much also.
They're not aimed at hardcore gamers -- which is actually a big reason I enjoy them: they're fun without being stressful. (I am terrible at "hardcore" games.)
Don't get me started on Microsoft and directX! :P
But at least Valve will get OpenGL a better standing by using Linux as their front runner in the near future.
