First Annual Nexon Costume Contest

$140 isn't exactly bank breaking. Most game systems cost more than that and the games themselves cost anywhere from 5 to 10 times the cost of the average book, with less re-usability in most cases, far more restrictive DRM (I can loan my e-books, can you loan your DLC for your games, let alone the games themselves in the ones that required online registration?).

It's nice that it's worth more than you're willing to pay for what it provides, but that isn't an acceptable basis for someone categorically declaring the product itself sucks. The two concepts are rather distinct.

Kindles are only $80 now anyway, so it's literally a few bucks short of being the same price as a new game.
