They look the same! Weow.
New games on PS3 and 360 pretty much all have the same price: MSRP $59.99. The boxes are the same size, and they take up the same amount of shelf space. The covers have the same generic border, and the manuals all contain the same legal mumbo jumbo. But games are not all the same value. The latest Wii shovelware is obviously inferior to the latest Bethesda masterpiece. Yet they cost the same. Games are like books - eventually, they all just sit on the shelf, collecting dust. The money you spent on them is not spent on a product, but an experience. If it wasn't worth the price, then what was the point? You just wasted your time on an inferior product, and your money, and they time you spent to get the money. Game decisions are important. Should I buy this one or this one? You are stuck with your choice; you can't resart from your life's last checkpoint. Sure, you can always trade it in, or get a new one, but that time will never come back. Good luck making the right decision.
