20 bucks!!!!! i think ill wait til it gets cheaper, i think that price will put off alot of people from buying it.
Well it does have trophies, and there’s allot of people that I know that will be purchasing the game. Along with Mega Man 9 on the same day going for $9.99.
true that, but to tell you the truth i can care less about trophies, now you see mega man 9 i will be getting, its priced right.
With all the features that the game is coming with, I don’t think the price is bad.
I have to say i find the price for WipEout HD quite cheap, you get online play etc.
but all it is are hd remakes of the psp wipeout tracks one or two new songs some online play, i wouldnt pay 20 bucks for this now megaman is a totally new game and its only 10 bucks.
It’s a heck of allot cheaper than what allot of people expected.
