KYAHAHA. Lel knows to work it like a pro. That's how I planned it, too.

I dont' think the game is failing, I just think they realized it would be unwise to keep the price up that high with the monthly fees they're charging.

World of Warcraft is the same way, right? 30 bucks or something, plus the subscription per month once you're addicted and have already bought the software.

No. I can assure you.  WoW is still $49.99. Along with collector sets that are $100.

COH is 30.  FFXI is 20. SWG has so many different things, the total experience, collector set, jump to light speed - and they all range 20-40 dollars.

PlanetSide with the single expansion pack is $20. thats a steal IMO. but yeah. the games only been out a month and its already down to $30. thats wrong. i dont know what the monolith execs were expecting, but not every game can have WoW level sales. I think the game at launch has been a sizeable success, but obviously not enough for The Powers That Be if theyre dropping the MSRP 1 month after launching. as always theyre greedy for more.
