Absolutely, and I think retail prices like that pose some serious problems for the pricing of "short games" or episodic content.

I, too, feel that 20$ for a 4 hour game episode is probably overpriced -- but on the other hand, 20$ for a full-package standalone title like BS3 is obviously underpriced.
