Give it a few weeks and it’ll be $7.99. Maybe even $5.99 depending on how many sales they got last time it hit $7.99.
They keep it at this price because it allows them to advertise an ‘80% discount’ several times a year, which gives them better visibility in the sales.
Which is a wholly different level of suck. But hey, ho.
Office DisOrders (aka Office Politics) wasn’t XBLA, it was one of the less curated (but wonderfully weird) XBLIG titles, which had their own subsection on the store and which exclusively used the XNA Game Studio; essentially it was a sort of Net Yaroze (to go even older and more esoteric) model but for the early broadband age.
A lot of those games are straight up lost media, I believe. Although a handful have made it across to PC in recent years, such as the utter standout I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1N IT!!!1.
Of course, that’s not the most recent remake of Myst. The current one is called, er, ‘Myst’.
Sigh. Looking forward to Riven. Again.
