Feel the love, PS2 Games now 39.99!
« on: May 20, 2002, 04:57:29 PM »
Sony annouced a new recomended game price of 39.99, down 10 dollars.

"Earlier today Sony cut the recommended retail prices of software for its PS2 game console in the U.S. and Canada, a massive move that could have great implications for rivals Microsoft and Nintendo... not to mention the industry as a whole."

VERY awesome news! :D

WOOOOHOOOOO!

At $50, it would take me 10 work days of slipping $5 lunches! Now at $40, it\'ll only be 8 days of skipping lunches! :p

AHA! :D

Yes. And games developed by Sony.

I don\'t see this as that great of a move, why cut the cost on new softeware??
Just make a range with the older games, that is like $29.99 by that time you would have made most of your money on the game, and can then get a few more sales of the game, because people see it is cheaper.
People would still buy the game if it is $49.99 so why cut the price if you don\'t have too? I mean sony is so far out in front that it just doesn\'t make an sense to me, does that now mean that all the console that sony brings out after the PS2 will have software for $39.99? because if it hasn\'t then it is going to make the games, seem expensive agian!!
But now who is loseing the money Sony or the developer?

I know i should be moaning and i am not really, i just can\'t see the idea behind this move, i mean i can understand cutting the price on the hardware, because that has been out for 2 years, but i just don\'t see the software side, but hey it might make importing cheaper so yay!!

p.s is this for all developers or just sony games?
On the 15 of March 2002, i was going to leave these forums for good.
But on the 16 of March i realised i couldn\'t ever say bye to you guys, so i am staying here for good!
