Starfield’s 20-Minute, $7 Bounty Hunter Quest: The Kotaku Review. The first paid DLC for Bethesda's big space RPG is overpriced, paltry, and emphasizes the game's lifelessness. (kotaku.com)

I’ve got >1000 hours in Microsoft Flight Simulator and I paid $100 for the deluxe edition. 10 cents an hour, at most.

When I bought my buddy’s used GameCube for like $50 back in 2005, he gave me an extra controller and Smash Bros. Melee with it.

Just on that game alone I logged more than 2,000 hours playing almost literally every day for 4 years alongside my dorm-mates and buddies.

That’s like… $0.02 and a half cents per hour… for a whole ass GameCube and a game.

…Best purchase I ever made.
