What do you think about the length of games? Does it matter?
I personally think a game can be any length as long as it's enjoyable. However, I definitely do NOT think a game that literally can be competed in under half an hour should be priced at the full $60. (or even anywhere close to that, *cough*MetalGearSolidV*cough*) It does depend on the game though. RPGs are of course expected to be fairly long, at least 20-30 hours, if not 100 or more. I buy platformers knowing full well they only take 5-10 hours to finish.
Really, I just think games still need to be priced accordingly if they're very short in length.
