It probably wont drop in price for quite some time. I'm guessing not until after an expansion pack comes out. If even. I'm personally not unhappy I got it. In fact, I'm very happy I did. I pre-ordered it. I never preorder anything. Yes, it has some problems here and there, but they dont affect me too much (if you have win 7 64 with an ati card, im sorry). BUT, what game hasnt had problems at launch? And the fact that Brad said we were going to get free updates until the community was happy is icing on the cake.

Probably not for a couple of years.  However, I consider Elemental well worth the asking price now.  It's already a deep, addicting, and fun game, and it's only going to get better.

Just wanted to say that even win7 64 and ati gfx isn't necessarily the kiss of death.

I have that setup and have decent performance (should be better with my rig though). I've had a single crash so far, unless

I alt-tab that doesn't work. My secret may actually be that I have really old drivers.

New isn't always better in the world of drivers.
