Plus, this is the same as Games Du Jour where they had over 50%-60% discounts for a game for 1 day. And they've had it since over a year ago. As others have said, this is old news.

Seems to work as they often get quite high in the charts. Sometimes games are sold for $0.99 but normally that's and older game just before a sequel comes out. The bulk are still $6.99 especially new games. I agree that something like $9.99 for a premium game would be cool (like the 1600 point games on XBLA) but who defines what is premium? Quite a lot of the $6.99 games are incredibly well polished and could classify as premium right now. It’s old games that they give a boost in sales by dropping the price to $2.99 for one day.
