    I agree though. Sooner, rather than later, we'll see more and more digital distributions which, at least I would think, could help lower the costs of games somewhat. I know some places such as Digital Downloads have popped up, but I couldn't see paying full price for a game plus a downloading fee when I could go to the stores and pick up the game for the exact same price with the original CD and other goodies.
