The truth is that games have gotten cheaper over the years. I remember when some SNES games were selling for $80 a copy...and with inflation, that would be over $120 today...for something under 1MB.
Also, a lot of games have cut-scenes making up much of the space...so a game like Skyrim is small enough to fit on a DVD, and it offers 300+ hours of playtime on a huge landscape while uncharted 3 was over 50GB before they added compression, the maps are small, and the game can be beaten in 4 hours.
