    I guess that the price of a game really reflects it's sales. And maybe, just maybe, after the handful of AAA games all released the SAME WEEK drop to 40$ in a month, publishers will stop sabotaging themselves like this every year.


    I'm sure that these games are great, and like the Price of Persia 40$ price drop, after LESS then a month of being out, it could have been avoided if they came out in the MANY dead weeks throughout the year. I mean, between the dipping economy and the sheer VOLUME of other titles being released, how surprising is it that a few of them got left behind and already get price cuts? And, RE5 coming in a couple months will probably sell like hot-cakes. Granted, that does have a long line of games behind it, but so do most of the games that got a drop.

    Best Buy has World at War for 35 bucks on 360 for the rest of the week. I price matched it at Wal Mart and used my $25 gift card so I only paid 12 bucks for a brand new game I actually wanted. Hooray me!

    Others, like myself, need convincing it's better than Madden 2005. Or any of the good PS2 versions.

    Wait a minute.


    According to a Kotaku article covering a Forbes piece on Capcom [kotaku.com] Lost Planet cost $20mil to advertise. I don't watch much TV at all so I don't know the extent of advertisnig of either of these, but considering that Madden is very much a key title for EA, does this mean the numbers for one or the other are overblown? Or did they really not have to make a push as hard as Capcom did with Lost Planet?
