Oh, just stupidly ridiculous prices and lousy trade-in values...
Like they give you $8 for a game and then sell it for $29.99... or they'll sell a used game for $59.99, and 10 minutes later you see it on the shelf at Best Buy (brand new) for the same price.
Games in general are getting way too expensive. For me, it makes more sense to just rent games since I have very little interest in re-playing them and it doesn't take more than a few days to finish most games. For the odd "must-have multi-player" game, I try to find them in pawn shops or someplace cheaper. Like how I just found Gears of War 2 for $10 today. It's $40 (used) at EB.
I'm not even someone who usually cares about price matching or whatever. I guess it's just the principle of the whole thing. $70 for a video game is just stupid.
