agreed! i'd rather sell 5 games at $30 than 3 games at $50, and i for one would not pay almost double for a game just because it's got real voices in it. it wasn't long ago people were complaining about the price of accessible games! look at bavisoft, they use real voices which hikes up the price of the games, and frankly, after completing the games once or twice you might as well chuck the games in the bin as there's zilch replay value. i'd rather have a cheaper game i can replay again and again, than a higher priced game because the voices are human! not too mention the time saved by using synthetic speech.
