$2.50? $5? If I want to go to the cinema to see *any* movie, new release or otherwise, I have to pay 8€ minimum (around $10-$11), and that's not including any refreshments

Well if it's a good game ( good news travel far, and news about a good game travel further), I'd give 15$ - 20$.
You can always put it on a CD if you like once you download it. Even if it's 5-6h long (it would take more if it has complicated puzzles). Only problem is downloading. I would have to pay for the game and then for Mbs I downloaded. |

Back on topic, to me it would depend on a few things. Obviously to how much the premise, gameplay, etc appeal to my tastes, but also to how it's distributed. If it's downloadable I'd pay between $5-10, if it's packaged in a DVD case or box $15, with a printed manual $20, with a hot eastern European model of questionable repute $5000+...

I would throw $5 bucks, easy, especially working on the assumption that it is a good game.
Without that assumption, I would probably still try it out. The idea sounds great; kind of like a "movie night" sort of thing. Pick up a game, make a night of it, etc. Once I got a little goodwill built up towards the company(ies) that made the games, I would probably go higher, up to about $10. Thus, I didn't really vote, since I couldn't decide on a choice. |

By the way, when I lived in CA I liked it fine, it just wasn't any different in terms of my own personal enjoyment of life vs here. But I certainly noticed a lot more beggars on the streets out there. Gee, I wonder why? |

I would pay anything up to $50. To me the cost isn't what I care about, what I care about is whether it's going to be worth my time to play it
In general it's better to overprice than underprice, especially if it's a niche market like this one. My recommendation would be to sell it for $20-$30. |
