In my head spending more than $60 on a controller or game feels absurd.

That’s what my brain has proved anchored gaming stuff at from when I was a kid.

Is hard to get passed that feeling.

There is more justification for physical items, since the cost of materials and transportation has gone up. But games, which are just data? Pure greed.

It really is.

I'm just closing my eyes and praying to Gabe that I made the right choice.
