I get the MSRP outrage, but I mean it's not an unusual cost for launch day titles, especially for physical media.
I don't think I've ever paid full retail for any game or console I've ever owned though. And I do like to own my games by buying physical media (or at least the installer files).
Which game has been launched at 90 bucks before?
Thing is that they even do this shady thing now where retails is 10 bucks more than the digital version.
Usually because you actually own the retail/physical version but they can rescind access to a digital copy at any point.
But I usually buy old games or new ones second hand, so, I exist on a slightly different market place...
