Me? :
For me, games will cost always more, will be more and more expensive and will become more and more boring, repetitive (Generally, except some cases) but more and more realistic. That result makes me think that I have to share with you my best experience ever had in video games.
I’ve stared playing video games at ~11years old (1996-1997) on NES or Atari ST. (I can’t remember exactly). 10 years of hardcore gaming, I’m taking a break now :p
