    I wouldnt personally wait for a $1 sale (especially since i already have the game bought at full price) but i suggest holding off buying games that arent recently released until we see what's up for price drops for the christmas holiday.

    I would normally suggest getting this game at the current discounted price, but the holiday's around the corner and we know there's some price drops to take advantage there.

    Oh oh not the price controversy ;)

    I buy games on release, i'm not super rich or that but i grew up in the 80's when games were expensive to kids on not much pocket money. I mean games are a few dollars, hardly anything.

    iOS games are great, i want it to survive and do well, i dont like freemium so my way of thinking is if a dev gets an extra dollar or two from me (and hopefully others) that 'might' be enough for him to release another great game in the future.

    The less sales they have (or the more people waiting for price drops) the more freemium we'll get or devs going out of business (One recently said they were folding).

    If we all follow suit and wait for sales then its bad news for iOS gaming. If we all buy games at a decent price we'll get more good titles specially AAA titles. We're talking a dollar or two here, its not like we're talking a $20 price drop on a current gen title etc

    They should copy angry birds star wars on the PS3 going at $40.


    Aaaanyway, still not sure about this. So the game's easy leaning on casual?

    Yes. I just finished it + DLC yesterday, and have to say that asides from a couple of bugs here and there, the game is very charming. It oozes a Calvin & Hobbes vibe all over it, and it's quite entertaining throughout.

    If you're on the fence, you could do much worse. It's not overly wrong, and it won't give you much trouble.

    Well, I am sorry, butt I have to say that there is a point in saving extra buck here and there. Buying games only at discount price has allowed me to save at least 100 bucks in total. It all adds up in the end and IMHO is definitely worth waiting.

    I'm still on the fence about this game. But I'm playing FF IV and I'll beta test a RPG soon, so I think it is enough for me already.
