Cheaper than physical versions, at least $10.

They can't be too much cheaper as you would be cutting the legs from under your retail partners.

The reason why pc games can be so much cheaper is they don't have retail to deal with.

As far as psn digital games I say no simply because you can download games to 2 separate ps3's you get 2 for 1. Before it was 5 ps3's. Digital is worth just as much as physical IMO. I share all my psn games with my nephews.

Take the example of Aliens : Colonial Marines which was £49.99 on Playstation network the last time that I checked.

At that price with mostly average reviews (and having gone back up in price from a previously lower online price) it's a case of charging the clueless gamer, button mishitter and eccentric millionaire for their excitable purchase to make up for majorly lost revenue elsewhere.

Of course. Cut new game prices by $20-$25 and the you can stop bitching about trade-ins hurting your sales...

Death to GameStop!!

Digital games will never reach the price point I pay for a physical copy. I might be the only one who says this, but I like GameStop. I buy games cheap and then get tons of credit for it at their store. I bought 4 copies of CoD:BO2 for $7 each. I traded them in at GameStop for $28 each. I spent $28 and got $114 in credit and used that for my system preorder. I'm a hundred and some change short from it being paid off and after I trade in this Xbox 360 that I paid $20 for it'll get me over a hundred and it might just be enough to get it paid for. You don't have to hate GameStop just find ways to use GameStop to your benefit.

They should be, generally speaking. But, in the case of consoles, the fact that retail also has to make money means that digital prices can't go/stay too low for too long.

Eventually, decades from now, when digital is far more viable and more widely available, that'll change. But for now, digital console game prices are at the mercy of their retail counterparts, so to speak.

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau

Wuchang is great. Nine Sols didn’t have a physical copy so I never played it but I’ve heard good things so I will check it out. I stopped playing sports games many years ago when before the card dlc’s or whatever they’re called.

Last comment… ):

Great month for others, but not me. Hate soccer and soulslikes. Maybe Nine Sols is good.

🫡 it was fun while it lasted, N4G.
