Smart business decision, of course. I was talking about the ps3 version of tlou just in case that wasn't clear. Although a ps3 price drop wouldn't hurt my feeling either. That one would be more for me than anything.

Why would that be a smart business decision when the game is still selling well? If they dropped the price by $20 then they'd have to sell 1.5 times as many copies every week just to make the same amount of money. Do you honestly think that a price drop would cause a bigger long term sales increase than that at this point?


The game isn't going to sell as well when an enhanced version with more content is released for the same price. The perceived value will be greatly diminished, and a price cut would at least keep sales on track if not improve them.



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."
