It is not expensive for those who are working. It is expensive for school or college students and parents who can not afford or parents who does not buy games for them.
Instead of talking about price. The availability of games is very less. For example. I have waited for metal gear solid 2 for pc for two years. I have gone to many computer shops nobody has it. The kept saying next week and then next week and then one of the shop keeper who sell original games in MG road in bangalore told me that he will give a pirated copy for RS:2500 and i was totally shocked the original game cost somewhere around 1500. I brought metal gear solid 1 for RS:2500. It is a original copy and i gave to a friend who in return gave me scratched cd
. Then i got loads of error msg and then i have to download the game to play it again.
Then comes another story. I waited for getting act of war: high treason. I could not find the games anywhere in bangalore. The game got released on march 16th 2006 and i got the game this month. That too i got the game from germany not from india. I asked one of friend. She send me the game.

While I totally agree with you on all points, I disagree on the first point, if you earn something like 10,000 a game a month @ 2500 Rs is still ultra expensive. even if you make 20000 a month you pay 1/8 of your pay buying a single game. Now that's rather undesirable.

What are you working?.
I will be more than happy to spend 2000RS. If the game come with unlimited gameplay (neverending), Mod and to backup the dvd. I.e :- Games which does not come with copy protection.

Battle Field is never ending only in online but in offline. I have no idea. I never played that game.
I usually spent my time only on offline games.
