Honestly, I think the DLC notion is where we're going. They're going to start selling bare-bones games at decent prices (say $30) then throw a shit ton of DLC out there, likely resulting in the games being $100+ after all the DLC is purchased. Look at the Guitar Hero-like game concept and that's what you're looking at for most games in the future.

DLC is fucking up the gaming industry from a consumer standpoint. So have the advent of console patches and the first round of purchasers being essentially beta testers, but that's another topic.
