Kotaku Writes:
Late last year, SCEE pushed a new 40GB model of the PS3 onto the European and Australian markets. Around the same time, the recommended retail price of Sony's first-party titles - which had since launch been slightly cheaper than those from third-parties - quietly went up, in Britain by a few pounds, in Australia by AUD$10. In case you couldn't previously put two and two together, one is the result of the other. SCE Australia (a subsidiary of SCEE, so it stands to reason the decision came from Europe) boss Michael Ephraim:
With over 5144 games on the PS3, it is easy to miss out on some great games. Here are some of the best unknown games on the PS3.
I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.
Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.
WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly
It had a lot of potential
Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
While some video games overwhelm you with sheer scale, titles like Asura's Wrath and Doom Eternal make you the boss player right upfront.
Wolfenstein: The New Order turns ten years old today, so we decided to play it again and discovered just how much of an extinct kind of game it is.
It's an outstanding game and so was The Old Blood. Also a lost era of gaming. Interesting, I received a physical copy of The Old Blood 9 years ago today from Poland. It was digital only in North America initially upon release so I had to import.
its a crock got uncharted for £34.97 ,and burnt out for £37.97 at asda and 360 version for burnt out was £39.99
different story for game £44.99 ps3 version for both, super markets are exspanding there games division and i can see why with these savings you can forget npd, chart track etc as they are not privilage to this information and most consumers are switching very quickly price is key
Actually im sure sony said at launch that the cheaper prices were only 'introductory Prices' so is it really surprising that they have gone up to same price as 3rd party games now
Kotaku -_- Yet again.
which console started the whole $59.99-$69.99/game trend? did such company receive criticism for it?
Why doesn't anyone understand this. Sony's first party titles have always been cheaper than 3rd party titles. Sony simply mades them same price as third party titles like MS and Nintendo. READ PEOPLE.
