Are video games really more expensive?

In general, we like to think we know how much something is worth. The decision is based less on logic and more on emotion, an intangible gut feeling. When it comes to video games we know when a game is under, or in most cases, over-priced. Unfortunately, that aptness in designating price to value is disrupted by inflation.
Inflation has recently become a serious problem the world over. No country is immune and there are real fears that higher interest rates, squeezed demand and cutbacks could spark stagflation or even worse – a global recession.
