Oh and one more question ....why is this game costs 50 bucks still? The game has been out for many months now. My friend refused to buy it, just because of this. Usually there is a price drop for each game after a period.

With large gaming companies who can afford to do so, yes. Not with two-or-three-man developers, published by a relatively small niche company.

Plus, Dom II has no paid expansions - virtually each new patch is an expansion unto itself...and they're all free.

Also, there is the fact that developers won't get money from those sales. Publishers might, or the shop-owners, but the developers... Shrapnel Games helps the game developers to get money for their work. It seems to be working as IW has signed up another contract with them...
