    It actually wasn't. Mirage was actually a 50$ launch price, and 60 for the deluxe. The game is actually sold under the standard (which reflects on quality)

      Its times like these that remind me that proprietary video games are such an expensive hobby.

        They're pretty cheap if you aren't addicted to buying them the second they release (kids are the target demographic so a couple years is too long to wait). Nearly every single big budget video game will go on sale for $15, during each sale (winter, fall, summer, spring, new years, etc.), 2 or 3 years after release. At least on PC. Nintendo games are expensive, since they don't do sales much, even years after release. The computer hardware is the more expensive part. Games that have been out even longer and have a sequel are even cheaper.
