I concur with Tuanniez Okey, JB are selling POP for $79. I shall be picking up my copy from them on the weekend.

 

79? From now on, I'm buying all my games there. But that's still $30 I'll never see again ._.

 

 

I got mine from EB pre-ordered for the bonus skin etc, then I ask for a price match of JB's price and got it for 79 :D

That's the part that upset me the most. The code isn't actually a redeem code, it's a code built into the game. So everybody can use the same code. I could have bought the game cheaper on Amazon and got the pre-order bonus they had going on. This is probably one of the reasons why Amazon had low orders on this game, everyone bought from EB/GameStop to get the skin.

For the people that want to know the code and unlock other skins:

I wouldn't use amazon.com as an indicator for how well a game sells. Amazon can be very misleading at times its probably a better indicator for books, CD's and movies.

It's out already and neither the PS3 nor the 360 version are on Amazon top 100 list. This is embarrassingly bad. I was expecting another hit from Ubisoft, similar to Assassin's Creed but it's not happening.

What went wrong?

 

Amazon = unreliable indicator of sales.

For example

Edit: haha and DDR Wii 2 is 6 on amazon just like Montana's first post for DDR 1.

Their talking about $79 in Australian Dollars not US Dollars.  $79AUS is a very good deal it the same as $52.82USD.

I hated the way the original PoP handled, is this one any different?

I love the style and 3rd person action/adventures are my thing, anyone think I should give this a try?
