$60 is expansive, especially if you live outside of the "market zone" (US, Canada, Some countries of Europe and Asia/Oceania). Yeah, in the past the games were more expansive, but this isn't a excuse to say that today games are cheap. No wonder piracy was rampant between 3rd~7th gen (especially in 6th gen), in some countries the price of a game was near of minimum wage.
Well, at least you people don't live in Brazil. One of worst countries to buy games, because of the huge taxes (and some dirty tricks, like what Sony did with the price of PS4 here) and much less earnings, comparing with with the US.
