Message: [QUOTE="UnDubious, post: 166238, member: 4030"] Minimum wage in the US in 1991 was 4.25$ an hour. It's an exaggeration to say salaries haven't increased since the '80s, however it's true that they haven't kept up with the increase in the cost of living. Also, as a kid none of the families I knew owned all that many games; everyone relied on rental instead for variety, something there is no real replacement for. Gamers routinely owning a million more games than they have time to play is a situation that came about mostly around the time Steam started to get big. But now that we all got used used to games being more affordable it's going to be difficult to ask people to shell out 90 dollars for games, especially for all the lower-profile games. [/QUOTE]
