Nah. I keep seeing this argument and I really disagree with it. It's actually really simple economics; we don't need to calculate inflation into this. If I think the price of something is too high (especially something I don't need to survive), I don't buy it. Companies can cry all they want, in the end I don't care.

It doesn't seem like you disagree with anything they said?

If everyone followed your lead, the end result would be that video games don't exist anymore. Just in case you didn't play that out completely in your mind.
