I wasn't interested in either game but for 5 bucks I'll pick up Good Time. It has been a while since an advertised game has been 5 dollars. Major publisher even.

They were actually up yesterday. I saw them both listed on Marketplace last night.

Seems to me these are the type of releases that work best BEFORE Halloween. Also noticed portions of Live were up and down and up and down last night. Probably a precursor to the dash update that is coming...

I bought Bloody Good Time (and have yet to play it) just for the fact that it is $5.

@Jawmuncher
Why is Ubi-Soft the only dev pricing there games in the right range? Everyone else just trys to push 15 and see what they get.

@Jawmuncher I am usually okay with 10. Every blue moon 15 is okay if the quality is there a la Costume Quest. But that is a rare event.

I will also be buying Bloody Good Time simply because it's $5. Hopefully it sells well so other developers will follow with this price point.

The character art looks terrible.

I'm worried that Ubisoft only charging $5 for Bloody Good Time is a very, very, very bad thing. Opinions, anyone?

@darkinchworm How is that? If it is bad it won't be a huge loss and if it is decent then we all win.
Could suffer Space Giraffe syndrome though. I read a smart study where he should have sold it for 10 instead of hia 5 price point due to it being a niche title.

@darkinchworm ubisoft wins either way. if it's a bad game, they made money. if it's a good game, they made money.

I poorly phrased that. I don't care whether it's bad for their finances or not - I thought that perhaps the comparatively low price point was indicative of the quality of the game. I was wondering if anyone could vouch for it either being absolutely horrible, or a delightful case of a major publisher blessing us with a cheap, quality downloadable title.

So hows Bloody Good Time?

I bought the PC version and it said it unlocked two days ago (they even sent me a link to the download, though it was broken) but now it says it's releasing in "HOLIDAY 2010". :(

Everyone complains about ubisoft's money but no one tries to say a thing about both games..
How is Bloody Good Time for example???

To anyone still wondering, Bloody Good Time is horrible.
