Is making cars like 10x times as expensive as it was in 2005? Games justify greed mongering technique like that by their companies claiming they take much more money to make than they did in 2005 when the switch to $60 dollar big budget games happened.

In 1991 we paid around $60 for the best Nintendo NES video games (we had 22% VAT at the time in my country). That's roughly $127 adjusted for inflation.

Early video-games were very expensive
