I guess I'm in the minority. I set aside some monthly budget for guilt-free spending (ala Ramit Sethi approach) and $70 for a game that I play for 20 hours or more of entertainment is a no-brainer to me. Back in the day that would be like $3.50 an hour at an arcade (or less if more than 20 hours). 14 quarters per hour, I think I averaged way more than that back then.
Then there are subscriptions like PS+ for Playstation that is about $15/mo and I get 3 games that I mostly add to my library and hardly play.
If I play half a game and get distracted or bored, I just stop. If I'm not naturally pulled back in, I don't care. The whole "guilt free spending" budget concept really shifted my perspective from wanting to "get my money's worth" to more "its spent, I had fun, what's next/interesting now?" approach.
