He explains that point onwards.

Basically, used market trends creep into the mainstream market, Collectors Editions of mediocre games and expensive pre-orders. Eventually it all goes to shit.

His style is a bit too agressive, but I think he's spot on.

I really don't see a big deal about Steam users pre-ordering the game for the following reasons:

- You can cancel at anytime while information releases.
- You can cancel after the game comes out for 2 weeks and less than 2 hour gameplay

Sure it was just announced but you know, people really like Fallout 3.

But why even pre-order? Why are people so desperate to give their money away to Bethesda without reason?

Is this mentality not frightening?

Do you not see these are the end times?
