Atomic Cannon

This game is the heat man. Very fun and addictive. At least the demo is. I want to get it, but I can't see spending over 10 dollars on a PPC game. What does everyone think of the cost of PPC games? To high or just right?

Nothing is wrong with the cost. I've paid $20+ for PPC games as long as they're fun, and I don't think they're going to be able to be "overplayed". Like ZioGolf2 for instance....I've played over 1000 holes on it, and still not tired of it. I'd say I got my money out of it. :p

I think that a lot of the PPC Game prices are rather high, but I guess I can see where they are coming from. Most of the developers are small companies and they want to make money.

I think they're pretty much right on target. I've got no problems spending 15 dollars on a game. 20 if it's really good. If a game comes in at 30 though it should be the end all, be all. I've seen a few 30 dollar games but none met that criteria.

14.95 seems to be the average and that's more than fair.

I have to agree with deftech. I don't mind paying more $$ for games as long as I think they will get played.

If you order now, they will include the PC version for free :D.

I just posted this in a different thread....

After playing Atomic Cannon on my Ax today, I got nostalgic for the OLD game "Scorched Earth: the Mother of All Games". We used to love that back in university (back when Wolfenstein 3D first came out), and after doing some searching today I found a new 3D version of Scorch for PC. If you are interested, here is the link, Scorch 3D Website .
It is freeware, I have been enjoying it and wanted to share with anyone else who might remember Scorched Earth. :D

BTW.. paying $20 for a good game on my Axim is worth it. Right now I am trying out Monopoly, but at $30 US it will have to be REALLY good.

I used to play scorched earth for hours and hours on end, me and my buddies would have huge tournaments :D

The price of PPC games is just right apart from a few examples of overpricing. 99% of games have demos so just check them out and then decide if you think the purchase price is worth it. Simple really.
