Indepe-what? Sorry, let me put down the controller, I was busy replaying Dragon Age: Origins for the 4th time just after I replayed Mass Effect for the 6th time.
I would have the time to play Braid, Castle Crashers, or Shadow Complex, but I am really itching to perfect Guile's Ultra Combo, which is the weirdest mish mash of zigs and zags.

Thanks for the answer.
~24 PSN games to 45 XBLA games is the answer. That is a huge gap, don't you think? No wonder devs would go with XBLA, as they are far more aggressive (at least in the past 2 months) for price cuts.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
Price cuts are not always a good thing for a developer for example a game that costs 10 bucks and the developer was seeing 7 dollars profit and selling 10k a month was making 70,000 a month. Now if that game is dropped to 5 dollars and the developers make 3.50 then they need to sell 20k units to make the same amount. My point being that maybe it is a bad sign that so many games on XBL are having their prices cut.

Except for the fact that when an XBL title has a price cut, the price drops 50%, but the number of units sold increases 200-300%. It more than makes up for the reduction in gross revenues.

ive bought a number of games/dlc on sale or reduced in price that i wouldnt have bought otherwise. so they got money from me that they would never have gotten.

Competition scared them. No competition on PSN. Also maybe they are worried about saturating the Motorcycle Stunt genre...
And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need...

I am personally glad they are on the Playstation I wish more followed then everyone could use the 50 dollars they save on live to buy awesome games. Oh well I will just enjoy the good games I get and hope we get more braid defectors after the MS exclusivity runs out.
I guess maybe that speaks to the awesome games on XBLA

You don't need to be an XBL Gold member to buy these games. The free Silver accounts are sufficient meaning you still can save that money to buy more games...
So this translates as my games isn't good enough to attract buyers given the competition on XBLA, I'll try to mug some other crowd instead?
Seems more likely some shovelware dev trying to get attention for their game by using "console wars" to advertise it. I wouldn't buy their game on principal of how low this PR stunt is.
With 87 at metacritic I think 50 000 is not a big number.
