WTF!?!? Heavenly Sword still $59.99?!?! Why???

I been waiting forever for this game to have a price drop. Its almost a year old what gives?

Edit: The reason I don't want to pay full price is because the game is very short, like maybe done with it in a weekend. I don't want to rent it because I can see myself playing this again after I finish it.

LOL I agree.

I heard its a great experience but is very short. so i want a price drop as well.

Hey man I am in the same boat here. Not with heavenly sword but for Folklore. I want that game so bad but can not justify paying full price for it now when it has been out for over a year. I don't know why these games are still priced so high. I mean they can not be good sellers at these prices can they?Dankodefense

I hope no one pays full price for a year old game. I got Oblivion for 29.99 when it was a year old

yea for real, why dident they jus add it to the greatest hits line-up!?LP4EVA2005

I was in awe shock when i first saw the lists. Like what no HS?

I agree , I dont know how they expect to sell games at $60 a pop when the whole country is in pain from high gas prices , and high food prices

Yea, especially short games, if it was a longer game then Maybe I would pay but 10 hours... No.

could have guessed that but anyways if it goes down to $30 or becomes a greatest hit then buy it beat it within 7 days return it and buy ninja gaiden sigma with the money.

unless you have that game to then buy resistance o wait you might have that to warhawk maybe? after that point your sol in my book.

I'm not online enough for warhawk and I got resistance at launch. All the games I want now are $60 and I'm waiting for prices to drop. I'm not bored, I got a lot of games to keep my happy I just really want Heavenly Sword.

Yea i get what your saying i was lucky enough to pick it up just before mgs4 came out and could do the quick turn around and kind of in a sense play it for "free" but since the games you want are $60 ide say wait for it to hit $30 much more worth it or see if you can find a used copy.

he could only do that if he bought it used... if you buy games new and you return it with thereceipt, the will give you store credit or exchange the game for the same game. If you really want it in your collection, buy it used.

Don't get too mad. Mario Kart for Gamecube is still $60. Despite it being on GAMECUBE:evil:Denji

Um Gamecube games were never even $60 where I live(New York).

Yep thats what i did i pre ordered MGS4 then bought heavenly sword like 3 days before it came out beat it returned it to the store for credit and then paid off my pre order the day mgs4 came out. All part of the plan if you know what i mean.

I know! I'm in Canada here (not too far away from you actually). I goto EB, every other Gamecube game is priced accordingly aside from Mario Kart. It was $60 4 years ago and it still is. I don't really see Mario Kart anywhere else. It's BS. Gamecube games should be 15.99 and under.

If you can beat this game in one weekend then just rent it.

If you want to keep the game then buy a used one.

No price drop because this game is amazing, and it is a great seller for PS3.

[QUOTE="LP4EVA2005"]yea for real, why dident they jus add it to the greatest hits line-up!?FF6fan

It was 250,000 for PS1 and 400,000 for PS2. According to Wikipedia, the criteria for PS3 games is they have to be on the market for at least 11 months, and sell 500,000 copies or more. But anyway...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Really, though, if the game hasn't met the criteria of becoming a Greatest Hit, shouldn't the price be cut? I mean, what better way to stimulate sales for a game that's not selling that great than by reducing its price. The game is good but a lot of people can't justify spending 60 USDs on such a short game. Cut the price to 30 and watch sales pick up drastically.

I could have sworn I have seen Folklore at my gamestop for $30.... I know for a fact it wasn't more than $50 at most... and almost positive it was right at like $30

last i heard, the game only sold about 330k.

sony is trying to milk profit as much as they can. i'm sure they can drop it,but since there is a rush of people buying ps3's they might have held on to it, along with uncharted, to see if others would buy. This is going to be a pickup of mine when i get extra money (saving up for a ring for my girl out of all things)
