If you check out my sig, I pretty much let my Hype Machine list any and all games I plan to check out in the next year or so.

There's only one game on there: Rabbids, and that's just because I'm hoping for a Rayman-like 2D sidescroller featuring the Rabbids, who I do enjoy as characters.

Prince of Persia DS wasn't a bad game either, just not a game worth what they were charging. And if you went to any Target bargain rack a mere two weeks after its release, you could find it there for 19.95. I'm sure that hurt their bottom line, too. Let's not get into the train wreck Assassin's Creed turned out to be.

I still hold judgment against COP. It might be decent, but I think at best it can hope for adequate. We're talking a genre of game Ubisoft has a cruddy track record with, done in 3D on a machine that doesn't particular handle open world 3D games too well.

Also, 2008 marked the closing of two of Ubisoft's bigger outlets to sell games: Circuit City and KB Toy Works in the US.

That and big box stores like Target and Wal-Mart having to cram more and more titles for less and less time, due in no small part to 3 different versions of each PETZ game or the 20 new Imagine! games Ubisoft themselves are putting out.

none of you mentioned that some of the IMAGINE games actually sold more than million copies

my thoughts:-
consumers got smarter decided not to buy any more of the imagine series
that will explain why the sales drop for this year!
