That's cheap

[MadDogX]

Something is very wrong with that price. Low prices may be good for us but they are generally a bad sign. I wouldn't like to see ArmA ending up in the "5€ value bin" anytime soon and I definitely don't want to see BIS going downhill... we need Game2!

Once BIS have cleared up all the bugs/issues in the game, they will probably need to release an expansion similar to "Resistance".

If it sells this cheap all over the US, I wonder what kind of profit BIS will be making.

[Killerwatt]

BIS will have made a deal with the publisher (in this case Atari) for their payment and Amazon will have made a deal with Atari and will subsequently set their price to acheive a pre-decided profit level based on sales projections. Hence the low price. Its not rocket science.

This just tells you about the confidence level the US retail might have for ArmA now. Hard to say why - perhaps it's because the US average consumer is shifting towards the new generation graphic cards & dual-core/core2 duo cpu's in time for the new generation graphics games. And ArmA isn't a particularly dual-core friendly game. It has somewhat outdate game engine geared for an outdate PC platform of the Pentium4 cpu. Just my guess...
