Noticed today at Best Buy, that standard edition was marked down to like $25. I would have gotten it, but I really want the deluxe and I want a newer computer first.

I jumped over to the website to see if there was a similar discount on FSX Deluxe, for a friend, but it's sold out..

That probably indicates how it is selling (or more correctly, maybe NOT selling). That is a VERY steep discount for a game released about a month ago!

best,

Or.. maybe simmers learned a lesson from FS2002. That buying the standard version was not a good idea. They aren't discounting the deluxe.. in fact.. they're sold out ..

Most likely, it's a combo of the two.

Sales have dropped off and most who are still purchasing it, go for the deluxe

I never understood why they went back to two different versions. Seems a backward step to me.

I've seen the Deluxe version on the Web for £37.99 - in stock with free UK delivery. At this rate they'll soon be giving it away.
