So most of my friends are now playing StarCraft 2... and while I would like to be playing it, I can't justify the $59.99 price tag for it at this time. So today when I saw the announcement of the digital download of it I thought that might be a better option. They didn't have to press a CD or pay for packaging... should be cheaper right? Wrong. $59.99 still. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to pay the same for less. If I'm gonna pay $60 for a game, I want the CD, manual, and the shiny box for my bookshelf.
Why should the manufacturer make more profit than it already is!? I can get it from AMAZON cheaper than Blizzard directly... and they need to make their own profit off of it too! Can you say overpriced from Blizzard?

It's Blizzard... what do you expect. I definitely agree with you though, it's pretty fucked up. The e-book people got it, all the e-books are several dollars cheaper than the paper version. Especially when you compare buying an e-book versus buying a hard-cover... major savings. Apparently not so much with software. I say BS on that.
