Hopefully they'll see that everyone else feels the same way when they've got these giant boxes taking up all their warehouse storage and the price plummets... but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

I know exactly what you mean.

It wasn't long after launch and I walked into a Game and seen them sitting at £80. Now that seriously stung seeing that, especially as I couldn't even get into the game properly by that point.

Hell, I still need to finish it, I was completely underwhelmed by the first 1/3 or 1/2 of it; plus it has no couch co-op so those combined meant I just couldn't be arsed with it. To a lesser degree as well I really don't like the way I'm always in a team of 4, some of the conversation feels so forced and I just don't like always dragging three people around with me. At least there'll always be the Bungie ones, y'know, with couch co-op.


Gears, I do want to get but I can wait for a big price cut on that edition.
