Ace Combat NEEDS to cost more than 9.99. It just does. No one will pay more than 9.99, though. At least not in one installment. Hence, multiple installments. If you add them all up in the end, the game comes out costing probably what it should. I doubt you can get Ace Combat for the PSP for less than 19.99, and the game has been out for quite while already. A true full version of Ace Combat (a version that consists of 15 missions or so) should come with a similiar price tag.
