It happens a lot more on PSN with PSN and PSP games, as I saw that about half of the recent Greatest Hits announced for the PSP were already at their new MSRPs on PSN or less. I've noted before that you can get the Penny Arcade episodes for $15 total on PSN and they're $35 total on Xbox Live. Xbox Live Games on Demand is an even bigger joke with the recent release of Super Street Fighter IV at $40, which is the same price it launched at in April 2010.
Actually, Super Street Fighter IV is $30 on XBLM now. They just don't advertise the price drops. It still doesn't excuse Modern Warfare 2 being $60 though.
