If that's the case, then why are console games so damn expensive? I was shocked to see how much the latest AAA title costs on disk/store Console users now - Don't get a price subsidized console - Have to pay an online membership - Pay the premium for any games released on the platform How could anyone ever justify getting triple taxed! | ||

It's not price subsidized, but the margins are very thin on the hardware. So maybe it's not a triple tax. But it's still a massive tax. Valve is insanely profitable with only a single tax on generally much lower base prices. Nintendo is in a whole different league. | ||
