Horizon going up because of price cuts. Seems rather fast and desperate. It seriously just went down to $39.99 not too long ago lol

That's the beauty of Playstation. We get really good and competitive prices on our software.  You won't see games,  no matter how good staying at $60 for years.  If a game doesn't sell good you will get awesome price cuts to boost sales,  if a game like Horizon does sell good you will still get these awesome sales because Sony have made massive profits already so have no problem pricing it competitively to boost sales further.  

I'll never get the Stockholm Syndrome of being in an ecosystem where the platform holder refuses to lower the prices of their games to create a false narrative of value, instead of opening the opportunity for more people to play the game when sales are slow, or to expose more people to the IP. That line of thinking is poison. The market should determine the value of a product. Failing to meet people halfway by keeping costs high when sales were dying on the vine killed a certain console this gen for a reason.
