>"With DLC and other bells and whistles tacked onto many games these days that would have normally been part of the core game, the base price quickly inflates to be more in line with inflation."
1.) Assertions about what "would have been part of the core game" are certainly popular, but not necessarily true or provable and certainly not universally applicable.
2.) Standard new game price held steady at ~$60 through three console generations prior to common place DLC. If inflation had been taking its toll we'd have been looking at $85 games prior to "horse armor".
