The Wheelman Heading For A Quick Price Drop (RUMOR)

Submitted by on April 17, 2009 – 12:09 pm4 Comments

thewheelmanboxshotIn late march, The Wheelman was released to decent to good reviews, most commenting on how it had a very “Transporter” type vibe, while starring Vin Diesel as the main front man.  Apparently, the game may not have sold as well as Midway and Ubisoft were hoping as word around the Gamestop campfire is that it is heading to a quick price drop in the next few weeks.

It seems that a loose-lipped Gamestop employee mentioned to me that he was surprised that The Wheelman was getting a price drop after good reviews.  When I asked what he meant, he said that they had received word that a price drop of $20 was going to occur on the title.

So if you were looking to buy The Wheelman, you might want to wait a few weeks to see if this pans out or if it is just idle chatter from an Gamestop employee.

    Not the first game to do this (Beyond Good & Evil, Facebreaker comes to mind)… but has it ever paid off? Has any quickie price drop ever suddenly punched sales through the roof?

    Yeah, but when you're on the brink of bankruptcy, you want to move as much product as possible instead of taking a full hit on it.

    Game just dropped on Gamestop Today. New: 19.99 and Used is still 34.99

    I've seen these problems going on for a while, Gamestop will lower prices on their site, yet it will go back up the next day.

    Endwar got down to 24.99 and went back up to 39.99 the next day. If your looking to buy it, this may not be permanet so I would hurry.
