Very interesting. Is microsoft doing this to increase sales or increase value?

If it is sales then they are really worried about the other competition that month and are doing this as a last ditch effort to save the game. Consumers like me who only have GeOW 3 are now more likely to buy it.

Or they expect the game to sell well but are worried about a consumer backlash. "This isn't even half the game GeOW 3 was yet it costs just as much." They are adding this to make consumers believe $60 is a fair price.

It would be really bad if both of these reasons are true.

Well for starters this is a $20 value so it should shut up the critics who are saying this may be overpriced.

As for sales it won't be as front loaded as a holiday Gears release, but its definately going to outsell competition like God of War Ascension no problem.

I don't think so...God of War is also a beast in terms of sales.

Both spinoffs, both march releases, both high tier exclusive franchises. I say its a pretty even match up. Wanna bet?
