Video Games Taking Over!
“People say that if consumers are down to their last $50, the last three things they’ll buy are milk, eggs and video games,” said Colin Sebastian, a video game industry analyst with Lazard Capital Markets. It’s not just Grand Theft Auto (GTA) that is selling like crazy, it is every kind of video game. Since 1997, GTA sold 70 million copies! Couch potatoes are in heaven these days. Not only are these video gamers spending $50-$60 dollars every time they buy a new game, they are also spending endless hours playing the game when they can be doing something productive. What is this world coming to?
People will buy games no matter what the price is. Especially with GTA coming out many people will be buying it and the game has developed to a whole new level. People get a lot of use out of their games so the money is not being wasted.
