(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Why is it that people are still buying games when the whole world is in such a depression right now? Is it because we all need to blow off steam? But with hefty prices for consoles, games, and even controllers, I don't get it. If anyone has input, I would like to know some others opinion on this.

thanks man, I find it quite intriguing myslef.

Because not everyone is broke now...

Not everyone, you're right. But there are still a lot of people that are suffering and still find money to but the latest games and/or pay for XBOX live membership. It boggles my mind.

They're addicted and/or don't have their priorities in check.

True true. Just like there will always be expensive cars with the unnecessary features on it that people will buy. Thanks for the input.

Because not everyone is a billionaire oil company owner nor someone who dropped out of high school to pursue a music career and failed.

I don't understand what you are trying to say. If you are trying to be sarcastic, it is not welcome in my thread.

I agree, and think it's more likely they don't have their priorities in check, people live for themselves now, we seem to live in a very selfish time, it's all about "me".
