The new features in the new list looks amazing - I'd say you could easily run up costs if you buy quality art programs for example, or better PCs etc. I don't be grudge a few dollars. 3DS Max, Photoshop, OS's to test etc are expensive. A 3D engine if it's a quality one will cost many 1000. Unreal 3 is about $1,000,000 so I guess that is out lol.
There's a clear choice it's not like they are saying hey that program you have
on your hard drive now, delete it, or pay for it --you can still play that for free forever.
Anyway we'll soon know if it is worth it when it comes out and people tell us what it is like.
