More like $300 console + $60 game = do your research, rent or wait for a used copy and sell the damn thing instead of throwing a hissy fit if you don't like it. And even better would be if gamers would stop acting like they're being ripped off for the sole reason that a game only lasts five hours. Portal is one of the greatest games ever made so it's a stupid argument.
And I'll echo the fact that it's not just gamers. I don't care if someone's been with their cell phone provider for 6 years, they don't owe you a free iPhone. The crap you hear working in a call centre. :roll2
