Funny.  Do not think I have EVER seen a multplat game cost more on the PS3 here at launch (or vice versa).  One version might drop in price first, but they start the same.  (there is the occasion that a special edition of one might cost the same as the regular of another...Dante's Inferno but thats it)

Thanks I never knew this.  How about the rest of Europe? Any idea?


In Italy at launch PS3=360 = 59.90/64.90/69.90€, while Wii = 49.90€, bar special offers and collector's editions. Same in France, a friend tells me.

@Selnor

It's certainly true that you can find 360 games for cheaper in UK, since it has a bigger market than the PS3 there. But the official release price - as the thread is about that - of 360 games is not the same as Wii's, but the same as PS3's. Just look at any catalog, such as Amazon, that states the "official" RRP price: 360=PS3= £49.99, Wii=£39.99.

If you're consistently finding 360 games at the same price as Wii's day 1 then you're being lucky at getting that £10 off, while the Wii games are sold for full price.

Um in the UK Wii games are the same price as 360 games. With PS3 games usually £5 - £10 more expensive.

Yes even Wii mini game games are released either £34.99 or £39.99. Same as 360 releases.

What did you expect? Kinect games are valued depending on user. What seems like rubbish to you isnt rubbish to the casuals. 

I bet the casuals laugh at people paying £39.99 for Halo Reach. They probably think what a waste. 


Where the hell have you been shopping then? 

PS360 games are the same prices, Unless your reffering to shops that sell pre-owend games, and even then the prices change everyday depending on what stock they have on that game either particular console, so it goes either way 



Do you live in the same area than him?

Prices also depends on where you are from. Like me, I'm from Mexico and new 360 games are cheaper than new PS3 games.

Same country, and prices don't change via area region, its the same store pirces thoughout the country, So i couldnt tell you what he is on about really, just another dig at the ps3

In Germany, multiplatform titles have the  same price. her and then you have small differences like 5 Euros, but never big differences, and mostly prices are adjusted to stay on the same level.

I hope those prices are wrong because they will kill the sales.

Why do you always think you can get away with making shit up?

360 and PS3 games both have an RRP of £49.99 and almost always sell for £39.99 on release day. 

Wii games have an RRP of £39.99 and the majority sell for £34.99 on release day. 

PS3 games are the same price as 360 games.

ermmm move games are priced at 39.99 on gamestop lol.


That's just certain select titles.  Major blockbuster titles will likely still cost $60.

SOCOM should be a $60 title, same as MAG, but titles like Sports Champions, Start the Party, The Shoot, Eye Pet should be and are $40 titles. Even The Fight: Lights Out is a $40 title even though it seems like it should be priced like Tekken or other fighting games.

It just looks odd that MS is charging $20 more for their equivalents: Sports Champions = Kinect Sports, Start the Party = Kinect Adventures, Eye Pet = Kinectimals, etc.
