Re: Are games worth what we pay?

Someone has to pay developers' salaries.

And then there's always the publishing costs, cost of printing the discs, art work, dvd boxes, shipping, distribution, promotion, and all that which all equate to that price tag on the front of your game box.

Buying preowned only fuels the retail front, and none of that goes back to publishers/developers which probably makes current games so expensive as they have to deal with losing money thanks to the preowned trade and so jack up prices. Or something like that.
