I would bet it was a sale. The first week a game is out (retailers expected it Nov. 8th) it often goes on sale for 5-10$ off.
Ifogrames is still going to charge retailers like $23 a unit so retailers can't drop it to $20 for too long.
On a side note this either means that Comp USA is either doing very well or very bad. I noticed at Best Buy (Where I work) that since the economic down turn we have stopped putting sales on new release games and just featuring in our ad. This means either Comp USA can take the low revunes or they are loosing margin to bring in customers hopping to gain it in other places (bad idea).

I wasn't gonna buy it mainly because the reviews are horrible and the multi play doesn't work.
But for 20 bucks prob worth getting it just for the extra civs and single player. Even tho a very small addition, it's worth $20.

That's the problem with CompUSA. They have so few stores and they never have more than couple cases of any one game. They probably only had a dozen copies per store to start with.

actually, it's "Amazon.com Sales Rank" is 17 on amazon.com and it's also in the chips&bits top 10 that i havent posted yet
so there is lots of truth in that title ("sold out" and "success")
