[quote name='indy2029']In defense of the previous posters, I bought NBA2K7 and NBA2k8, and BOTH years before xmas, amazon was selling it during a deal of the day for $20 for xbox 360.
It's true, wait 2 months, it can be had for $20-$40 cheaper (this year, I will wait), but most sports fans want to start the gaming season right when the real sports season starts, so I understand why ppl want to play full price.[/QUOTE]
A deal of the day is not the same, heck I bought Gears of war for $39.99 a month after release on a deal
I bought Mass Effect, GtaIv, and Halo 3 all less than $45.00 brand new day 1........
Sports games do drop prices fast, but it will not drop $30 until at least 6 months after release, you might see a $10.00 drop in a month or $20 in 3 months but that's about it.
I bought NBA2k9 at best buy, if it drops anywhere within a month I will get it price matched...., so.........
peace
