    XBOX360 Games Price crash

    Recently we have seen 360 games collapse in price but just how low will they go. When will we see the first sub ?10 game second hand (If not already), even new. With FULL AUto and Amped being sold pre ?20. Is the 360 doomed before Playstation and nintendo bring out their consoles. As the pubble burst for the 360

    Yes, 360 is doomed

      I think Kameo also goes for ?20, but why does game prices falling herald the end of the machine? We know it's selling, so if anything this shows that money is being made.

        These games are 7 to 8 months old. They've actually been full price for longer than most PS2 games manage it.

          Amped 3 is sub ?20? I'll have me some of that!

          Yeah, as ttk said, they've been overpricing pre-owned 360 games for an age, so I don't think it reflects on the consoles success. Bout bloody time!

            DOOOOOOOMED

            PS2 must be dooomed too! I saw a copy of burnout revenge that came out a month before 360! It was ?7.99!

            SHOCK HORROR!

              The pubble certainly has burst

              Seriously though, two games that didn't sell that well having to be discounted - nothing surprising about that. Would be nice to see prices forced down a bit more - 35 pounds is the most I really want to pay for most titles on 360.

                People seem to complain about the high price of the games on the 360, then as soon as 2-3 games are made a bit cheaper, the console is all of a sudden doomed.....

                    Surely it's all about demand and the amount of cash in people's pockets. As for 2nd hand games under a tenner...the market is awash with the rascals.
                    Shop with your feet, or mouse.

                      Both Amped and Full Auro are blatantly worth getting for 20 quid each. FA is shortlived fun, and Amped is really enjoyable too.

                        I have yet to pay full price for a 360 game and have no intention of doing so. The most I have paid was for the three games that came with console (courtesy of HMV a couple of months ago) and saved at total of ?25 on the three titles I bought.

                        All my subsequent purchases have been here or at RLLMUK. Plus "Amped 3" from Play and "The Outfit" and "Full Auto" from Amazon at discount prices.

                        I have no intention of ever spending even ?40 on any future titles... new.

                          Amped is great for sub ?20. Can't see the 360 being doomed, it's just clearance of stock, you get it on all machines when the next wave of titles come out. Especially now in this era of loss leaders in supermarkets.

                            Some people really do talk out their arse, games going cheap after being out over half a year means the console is going to die? Give me a break.

                              In your dreams Nintendo Kid, 360 is selling great. Nobody can argue that fact because they would be wrong- it's just wishful thinking on your part. It takes most games less then half the time to have this sort of a percentage in price drop as it has for 360, so no the Bubble has not burst and the 360 is not doomed before Sony and Nintendo bring out their next console.
