    Rolando 1 is currently $5.99. The final patch for R1 was submitted a few days ago that unlocks the remaining secret levels. It is at this time I am guessing a price drop on both titles with occur. R1 had a price drop a month into it's release, but I don't see R2 having a drop until R1 does again.

    I think it is worth the 10 dollars but if you are like me and barely ever have money to spend on apps, I would wait until the price drops or there is a sale

    Definitely worth it. One of if not the favourite app on my iPod Touch. Amazingly polished. Just buy it. It is far beyond the quality of many PSP and console games I've seen.

    Firstly $9.99 is not "a lot for an iPhone game" of this quality. The gameplay is excellent, graphics top notch and most of all its so much fun. The game will last you about 5 hours on a single play through, but to get the most of it you need to sign up for plus+ and get all the achievements and try to get some highscores. That's where there is a ton of replay value. I'm serious when I say if this was released on PSP it would be more than $20 as is.

    Secondly, just because Rolando 1 got a price drop, doesn't necessarily mean this will. Rolando 1 sold really well in that 1st month, this barely touched the charts. It depends what strategy ngmoco wants to take, but you can't always rely on there being a sale or price drop.

    What sales strategy does ngmoco have though? They thought removing topple and rolando was a good idea, and making dropship free to boot =P

    The game is definitely worth $10. But, I'm pretty sure a price drop will come. It depends on how desperately you want to play the game I guess.

    All ngmoco games drop in prices sooner or later. Star Defense, the much hyped TD game dropped 5 bucks already...

    I loved Rolando 1 and was happy that I paid $10 for it. But this time around, I am more in a 'Save money' mode - so I'll wait till it goes on sale.

    I am guessing that will happen in a few weeks.

    I personally think it is worth the 10 dollars. But my value of a dollar is a lot different than alot of other folks on here. I say go for it, theres no i dea when and if there will be a sale. You can expect one, but I don't think anytime soon. I really don't know though. I am happy with my purchase though. Getting all the achievements to rack up your Plus+ network points is addictive.

    It is definitely worth more than $10. Even scrolling through the credits is a blast. This is really fun stuff.

    I got both at premium price, but i think they were so worth it. Rolando 2 is sooo much better than the 1st one. The improved graphics add a lot to the game. even tho gameplay is pretty much the same, it seems as if the levels are a lot more fun.

    I'm probably gonna wait for a price drop on this to get it, but that is just because I'm short in money but I think it is worth it at $10

    Which one do you guys think is more worth the money?

    Doom Resurrection or Rolando 2?
