Scribblenauts Unlimited
« on: December 10, 2012, 01:59:04 am »
Guys, I just can't see how this can cost 50 bucks. Is there something I'm missing, is it a super-mega-game that is really 50 bucks good?

I'm seeing it listed at $30, not $50.

I've also heard good things about it. And honestly, these days who buys games on steam at full price to begin with?

That said, while it looks interesting I doubt it would hold my interest long enough to pay more than $5 myself. It does have a pretty big audience though. Also your post reminded me of this penny arcade comic I read awhile ago.

That's bizzare. I'm seeing 49.99 USD. May be you are looking at price in euros or something?

It's $30 over here, USD. Odd that your seeing it so highly priced.

Yeah, unfortunately, that happens sometimes. There are lots of different reasons why certain games aren't/cant be sold in certain countries. It's a hassle for gamers, but sadly, sometimes that's reality.

I really enjoyed the DS versions.  I think it's worth $30, but I have too much to else to play right now.  I'll pick it up eventually, though.
