Its already priced noticeably lower than full price at Half.com, the great Ebay company. I think it got caught up in the glut of games that released in March. Game companies need to promote games better, and also pick a time to release them when the game wont compete against other games for release. They competed with Tenchu 3,Clock Tower 3, and Dark Cloud 2 and XenoSaga in March, not to mention Zelda Wind Waker. Overall i think many games suffer the same fate, although im going to get the game im sure, it will be on my own time. There simply is no reason to spend full price on games in my mind, there are so few games that have to be immediately played (Fatal Frame 2 will be an exception) and waiting just a short while can bring the price down considerably. I bought several games in October only to play one or two of them the remainder of the year. I wont be doing that this year, i will still be playing games that came out in March of this year! Ive kinda figured out the release schedules for games nowadays, they seem to incorporate the period from October through March and then tail off to a trickle until October again.
