Lol ok. That's some dumb reasoning not to play a good game. I guess you never play anything old, and prefer to get ripped off? And when you finally can get the games at a good value, you snub your nose, assuming something has to be wrong with it to be that cheap? You're doing a ton of mental gymnastics for no reason.

Publishers often give steep discounts on the older games in a property to generate hype and sales before a new entry is released.

I never played dead rising when it originally came out. I picked up the first one for 95% off when the remake came out. It ended up being one of my favorite games. If I used your logic, I'd overspend on everything, and I'd never find games I missed like that.
