The value story
The value story
40 discounts in the 14 years on record, a median of 50 percent off across all of them, roughly 18 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
It is pricier than 67 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 87 percent. Nex Machina ($19.99, scores 66) outscores it, and so does The Hong Kong Massacre ($19.99, scores 23). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
