I've never seen an adventure game released with a sticker above $40. Don't take my word for it. Look at amazon.com (the U.S. website). The newest adventure games sell for $30 or less (except Telltale games, of course). And all one has to do when facing a sticker above $30 is wait 2-3 months for that price to come down to a reasonable $20-25. (except for Telltale games, of course.) So, for you folks in Australia, I suppose $35 for 20-25 hours of gameplay does seem like a good value. Thank you for putting your comment in its proper context for me.

Grog:

I’m not certain how, when I can purchase adventure games tauting 40+ hours of gameplay, which cost $30 (USD) or less, you call a 20-hour game for $35(USD) a “tremendous value.”

Has the American consumer really been beaten down so pitifully?
