    $4.99 seems like a pretty decent price for this game. Do you think it's worth buying now or should I wait for a price drop?

    Also, is there any chance the price could go up?

    This, I feel sorry for anyone expecting a price drop.

    Considering GTA: Chinatown Wars are priced double then GTA: 3, I would say there is a high possibility that the price-tag could go up.

    Besides, you can't beat the current classic like GTA: 3, especially at such a low price.

    I believe this is an intro price so expect it to go up. I grabbed it last night.

    Another thing - how long did it take CW to go on offer. At least a year I believe so you will be waiting a while.

    And regard to CW, it went on sale for Chinese New Year

    If you own a $300-$600 device and are always doubtful of spending $5 on a game that looks good, there's something wrong.

    If you knew for certain its going on sale (EA and Gameloft games) then I would wait, but $5 for a universal map + GTA III made by Rockstar?

    Just get it.

    $5 for a brilliant game that blows the shit out of nearly everything in the app store? Buy it NOW before the price increases, waiting is a bad idea.

    I absolutely agree. This is exactly the attitude I hate with the App Store is why I very rarely post on this website.

    Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

    Man I wish more people would realize how much work goes into these games, and that asking for $5 is a <censored> steal!

    I bought it yesterday at $4.99. As someone else said, I believe that's an intro price. Even so, it's well worth the $4.99.

    Buy it unless $4.99 is a hardship for you (and I mean that sincerely).

    :cool:

    Are you crazy?

    What's the hold up? I paid $10 for Chinatown wars and that was IMO a half and half port. Half DS, half PSP and no audible speech.

    This is the real deal. I know it's rough when you are used to the $0.99 specials but I think pricing on this game will only go up.

    i don't think it's changing price, higher or lower, for some time to come.
