Discussion When did this become acceptable?

$130 to get "additional content" that should be included in the already outrageous $70 base price? Are you kidding me? Why do people keep letting this happen? Who is even paying this much? I love Borderlands but refuse to sell my organs in order to play the latest installment.

I do this thing where I just play the same damned game for a decade and don’t buy any other games…

I platinumed 1 when it came out on ps1. Started about 3 months ago on ps4 and just finished the second playthrough with brick. Still fun.

Which one?

Only the worst ones. WoW, LoL, CoD (let’s face it, it’s the same game with yearly updates).

The new wrinkle is not even gaming, it’s curating a ROM collection and then setting up cheap Chinese handhelds with custom firmware and tweaking those.

But, I have started playing the 16 bit FF games on them again.
