it's a video game noone needs gear neither you nor me, but we all want it.
Also "It's just a video game" is such a poor excuse. I also pay taxes monthly and buy food to keep on living, as everyone else. And as everyone else (or most of us) I want mansion on my own island or whatever. But it would take me my whole life to get enough money for it. So I choose to lower my standarts and do other things. It's same for top gear - if you want it so badly - put your life into getting it. If you are not ready for such sacrifice, then stop saying that every person must have that island, it's not for everyone, just as top gear.
