[quote name='gsr']i think they bought too many copies of this game, and it has tanked.
Hardly anybody out there owns a ps3, much less being willling to pay $90 retail for a game that'll last an hour.[/quote]
I don't know the reason for the rapid price drop(s), but this game has hardly been out for a month, I don't think that is enough time to determine if this game has flopped or not. Amazon appears to be the only one dropping the price this much, everyone else is still selling it for $80-$90.
The game is a port of an arcade game after all, and I don't expect the main game to last more than an hour. Namco generally adds new modes to their home version to add to the longevity of the game.
Hopefully with deals like this and more GunCons 3s in consumers hands, maybe we will see ports of House of the Dead 4, Virtua Cop 3, and Silent Hill Arcade.
