| Joe Schiaffi said: Pay attention man: Rise of the Tomb Raider IT'S NOT cheaper on the PSN than retail, it's AT THE MOMENT cheaper on the PSN than on retail, but the standard price is 59,99 € (if you see, it's the crossed price written) on the PS STORE, while in shops you can ALWAYS at any moment, find it at 29,99 euros, and the special edition with artbook and some download codes. It's important because you have to consider the standard retail price and not a standard price with a momentary special prices that will last some days. And all this without considering the used market: for example I could Purchase Ni No Kuni II PS4 at my local store for just 39,99 € or, yesterday, I bought Yakuza 6 preowned at 39,99 € (essential art edition). And I can still resell them if I want (but are great games so I will keep them). So, really, digital has sense only with 75% discount off (like Rise of the Tomb Raider that you mentioned) :) |
I disagree. I plan to buy Rise of the Tomb Raider NOW, and NOW it is €16. So let me rephrase my question: Why should I pay LATER €29,99 when I can pay RIGHT NOW €16 only for this game?
I obviously would never buy the game at the standard €59,99 But by waiting for the right moment I can buy the game for a BETTER price on digital than I could ever on physical.
Once I buy it, It does not matter anymore if the game goes back to €59,99 cause I got it for €16 and that will never change.
