I generally try a number of the smaller games on offer on the ps3 but due to prices like this, I dont bother with ported versions of smartphone games. Just not worth the price.

And if the sales are low, you will probably see the devs whining about how consoles are crap compared tp smartphones.

true, but the question is, if this sells buttloads what does this mean? and whats gonna happen to the indusrty once they see a stupid game like angry birds sell like hot cakes?

While I would rather they not succeed so that they acknowledge the price was too high or even be forced to bring the price down, I dont think the game selling would be a bad thing for consoles. There are literally tons of smartphone games out there and a successful Angry Birds game would probably see more of these coming to console. And yes, they might cost more but I would prefer to see them come to console and be highly priced THEN to see them not come to console altogether. We seem to be heading towards a system where the difference between types of games and what you play them on is getting blurred and I think this trend will continue.
