As Rhett said, it depends entirely on the replay ability of the game whether you find value in it. At $20 for what is essentially a rental of a game, that value is far greater than $50 for a game you play the exact same amount, but allow to sit on your shelf (or in your HD) forever.

If you look at it this way, you can pay $20 to own it for 2 or 3 full playthroughs, or $50-70 for as many as you want. If you're not going to play the game multiple times, it's a no-brainer.

Obviously this is a discussion on new big-title games.

You're not getting Destiny for $5-15 when it comes out.
