Secondly gaming is not meant  for everyon. if you can't afford it then its unfortunate (GET OUT, who are you to tell people what to do?!?). i mean people who belong to very low to low socioeconomic category should focus more on how to support themselves and or family instead of gaming. if you are in the middle and can't afford all of it,, then how is it a big loss? if you can't afford it straight away wait til it gets cheap. you don't have to buy it straight away right? -(Didn't you just call these people cheapskates? Ain't you contradictory?!) 

 Buying game thats its new but at a discount is not cheap skates. Borrowing your friends game and finishing their game and then using to play multiplayer without having to pay any money for it  is being cheapskates. Know the difference.  Its true,, why woudl a really poor person who can't afford the basic necessity be worried about gaming? That would be their alast thing to worry about as beign able to afford the necessities is more important,, so yes it not for evreyone. Hence why its called a hobby,, if you can afford then its great but if you can't then its unfortunate. 

Well why should the gaming industry be yet another thing that poorer people are priced out of? There is no need for a game to cost over $5 million to make. You don't here such problems on mobile games or handheld games do you? Not only are they cheaper to buy but they are so much cheaper to make too. In fact, i remember hearing that Nintendo DS games could sell only 250,000 units and make a profit. Also, why is it the gamers fault? They don't set the price, that's up to a retailer. Also, don't you think we already support good developers? They would of gone bankrupt otherwise. While, games like uncharted and halo are so well recieved because of their gameplay and they only happen to have top of the range graphics. If they weren't supported they would of not got sequels. Also, graphics are clearly not everything, i mean why would Minecraft or Call of Duty be so popular, the graphics are not worth talking about in either game. Also, learn how to spell.     

Haha you lost respect when you compared a first party and third AAA with mobile 1 dollar games. You can't be comapring temple run series, 4 pics one word, Epic swipe game, angry birds,  and many other games liek that to halo 4, uncharted series, God of war, tomb raider, TLOU, Heavy Rain and more. You sir desevr award for being a comedian :). The games made for mobile games are for casuals and we all know casuals don't play alot and wouldn't care or even know teh difference between  a good and bad games. Games you get on handheld like DS and experiences are different. these were made for on the go. you would not get uncharted games on DS. Not really, good games like Project gotham compan ygot closed and it was a good game, Enslaved didn't do well, Lost odyseey didn't sell well despite it beign an awesome JRPGS.  Well Uncharted woild get better sales if everyone bought it and wasn't allowed to leach right?  Don't get why people liek minecraft as its very reptitive gameplay  and as for COD that game is and FPS for teenage casuals ,, no offence to those who like it. I have played them all for achievement points. The thign why should gamers not progress with technology and move forward with graphics just because gamers who are stingy to pay for games suffer? Even to get better gameplay ,, you need better ai , more dynamic landscape all that cost money as machne gets more powerful budget will go up. Actually mine craft with mods looks quite nice. Oh i can spell, but i am too tired to check. if you can understand me then its good enough for me. rme.
