    Furthermore, Jake Gyllenhaal is set to be one of the film's stars! Yes, the Prince of Persi...

    There are those thinking to themselves, "wait, wasn't this already $299?" You would be correct. However, that was a "temporary" price drop. That reduction seems to have simply been made permanent on the Xbox site and at all retailers....
