"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

I totally agree,
but look at what you get

Big world, huge value! For a limited time, get the first six months of Age of Empires Online content (8/16/2011-2/16/2012) at more than 30% off! Premium Greek/Premium Egyptian/Pro Persian/Premium Celt Civilizations, Defense of Crete Booster Pack, Empire Extras, and more! Items will automatically appear in your game on release.

so you pay 2 to 3 times the value of a normal pc game to have this game you can play half a year.
why doesnt that sound logical?

Might be i am reading it incorrectly because i am not an English native speaker :D
LORD HELMET:  I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's
former roommate.

LONE STARR:  What's that make us?

LORD HELMET:  Absolutely nothing. Which is what you are
about to become. Prepare to die.
