Cheaper 360 (and PS3) first party releases - no more?

Also those big titles tend to be on sale at like Fry's and Best Buy and Target for huge discounts sometimes. Wasn't Gears sold for like, $40 or $45?

I guess $60 doesn't really bother me because I still remember paying like $70 for Final Fantasy II when it came out. Video games are still cheaper than they used to be and I'm still not sure Microsoft is going to knock all their first party titles up to $60, just their bigger releases. Crackdown is definitely one of their bigger releases.

I'm really hoping some of the third parties start dropping their prices down, and that once some of this next gen development cost stuff gets settled out and maybe comes down a bit that we see some across the board pricing drops, but I can totally understand why these games are costing so much now.
