[quote name='Roufuss']That just dropped that to $29.99, and I'd imagine sales of that are still steady, and it's a good game.
How I see it with PDZ and Kameo is that after awhile the game just stagnants and nobody cares, but with each new price drop they get a wave of people trying it out, which is why they keep dropping the price.
They are basacially snagging people with the price and not the quality.[/QUOTE]
You could say the same about most PH/GH/PC games. Some are all-time classics but most are merely items that did good business and won themselves continuing existence on the bargain shelf. They may not be the greatest of games but they'll generally be worth the price to new console buyers, especially parents, still recovering from the expenditure.
This goes on no matter how far the console price drops. It just reaches more people with lesser disposable income.
PDZ and Kameo owe a lot of their sales to being launch titles but such is the way of the world. The same could be said for Luigi's Mansion. Decent game but people were expecting a hell of a lot more from the flagship franchise at launch, especially since Nintendo had previously had killer launch titles for all but the Virtual Boy. If PDZ and Kameo had launched a year later they'd make better use of the 360 but so would the competition.
If I saw either one for $10, though, I'd snatch it up in anticipation of when I have a 360 of my own. Getting the list price down to the PH range makes that more likely. We've seen plenty of case where retailers blow out games for a ridiculously low price once a PH/GH/PC version also needs shelf space. The recent Circuit City blowout had several examples.
