EAGames price Cuts

Thats right, Due to heavy drops in sales this winter EAGames has seen sales dropping faster than the snow outside. so in order to take on its competitors and raise its sales margin and Market share. EAGames is announcing at least 45 price cuts to its back catalog of titles here in North America (Canada/USA). The big titles that people are going to notice is price cuts for NeedForSpeed:MostWanted/ Madden 2006/Fifa/Nascar/NBA Live 2006/ MedalOfHonour/HarryPotter and many more. Including launch prices being dropped to around 39.99USD per games here in North America.

Some titles are being cut as much as 20.00USD with one example being Medal of Honour: European Assault. Consider it a late Christmas gift

EAGames main reason for cutting current generation prices is the fact that Next-Generation games on the X-360 arnt fairing so well and as PS3 and Revolution get ready to launch current generation games will be left on the shelves. EAGames says they expect many other publishers to follow suit.

EA always had some pretty high priced games, I remember when NFL 2K was 19.99 and Madden would be 49.99

This is one of my favorite times each Gen. When games begin to drop steadily in price. Because im not to fussy about graphics I look at a good GCN game the same as I look at a good N64 game or Dreamcast game. I love being able to go out and buy brand new games for 39.99$! after I get Rev im going on a shopping spree buying up like 20 more GCN games at like 10$ a peice like they were for Dreamcast!

I wish they would drop their next gen games down to $50, or even their sports ones to $40.

I like it when a sports title is only $19.99. Especially when you are a sucker like me and buy the update next year (and cash in last years title for chump change).
