I was watching G4 on tv (a gaming channel) and the company has released a price of 250 dollars!!! I would really like to play that game but i wasn't expecting to pay more than 80 for it. What a sad, sad, day.

The game comes with a controller the size of a Ford Escort and you thought the combo was only going to cost $80? If that controller was only worth $30 nobody would want to use it due to poor quality components.

Let me clarify:

After seeing the prices EBWorld.com and GameStop.com posted for the upcoming Steel Battalion game were near $100 more than the Japanese price, I decided to contact Capcom to see if that was the official price. Here is their reply:

At this time, Capcom has not announced an official MSRP for the controller/game combo. I would not go by the price that EB and Gamestop are putting up. I really don't think that the price is going to be that high. Please check our website in the future for any updates.

More than likely, the US price will be closer to the Japanese price, around $160. We'll be sure to post some news when the final price is revealed.
