That's just because retailers have a stock of a game no longer selling and thus trying to clear out space. Steam/digital has no need to clear space for newer games.

Happens with most AAA budget games. They are super front loaded and thus see huge discounts at retail not long after due to no one buying them past first couple months. You see it very big for FPS games, due to if its not the new hit fps that everyone is playing, then no one is buying it.

Sure, I'm just once more shocked at Steam for their terrible pricing outside of their Steam sales. One of the biggest reasons why I'd never want a platform to go digital only.

Could all be a marketing strategy. Be higher priced most of the year and any sales you get at that price are a bonus. Then when Steam sales come, the % knockoff makes said game look more attractive.

It's like when stores or amazon have sales. You know the "retail price" is pure BS. The product never sells at that. But they say that so that the sale looks better.

Think of Doom on steam. If on sale its $10. That looks like a huge sale. $20 cheaper, or $10 vs. $30. 66% off.

Now think it it was normally sitting on there for $15. Now at $10 its only $5 less or a 33% off.

It's all mind games. Thus why things are always .99 instead of .01 more expensive. $29.99 sounds a lot cheaper than $30.00
