hmmmm knowing gameloft they start dropping their price down i think you should wait for a month or so
Hero of Sparta (from the same developer - very similiar to Assasin's Creed) went down to .99 from $9.99 after 6 months or so...
and Left Golf went down after only 3 months, and their BIA game has yet to drop even though it was released before HoS. But anyways, AC is in the top 25, Gameloft will definitely not drop the price until its off the game chart. Might take a month or two.
B.I.A has now dropped in price by $1 to $4.99 So you never know but then again they did only just drop Assassins Creed not long ago
If it's all about cost, wait. If it's about value, get it now. In my top 5 iDevice games easy. It's quite long too, so you'll be playing it for quite a while.
I suggest you to wait I heard gameloft will has a xmas' sale coming, and it will sell at 0.09 cents so keep waiting till the price drop ...(I mean u wait 4ever)
I don't think this game will drop... if it does drop to 99 cents or something, it'll be like "Craziness all over again with these 99c apps and all we do is probably not play the games that are worth more , sh!t, another price drop." I hear that Assassin's Creed 2 is coming out on Xbox 360... is there going to be another one made for the iphone? The story didn't really finish right imo, in the end
