@Anti-Matter "They should be forced to play completely different games to open their mindset and understand that they have discovered something new."
Don't you like piss and crap your pants at the same time whenever you see a game with an M-rating? Weren't you the guy who literally swore off of Final Fantasy when XVI was given a provisional rating of PEGI 18?
@Dezzy
Not every PS5 games are really expensive.
I found some PS5 games in Indonesia was as cheap as PS4 games, not even $70.
And they are Brand New, not Used.
@Grumblevolcano
Yay...! 😀
I will observe more about Ratchet & Clank A Rift Apart.
So far so good, nothing suspicious.
I guess part of it was it was technically also a movie tie in considering they positioned its launch in conjunction with that R&C movie that released in theaters around that time. Insomniac's next game which was Marvel's Spider-Man I believe was full price at launch

Pretty much from 6 to 9 earlier tonight i was playing plain Persona 4 for my Playstation 3.
Got up to April 20something where I had to rescue that Yukiko gal. i kept dying from the floor 5 -floor 7 enemies but luckily i had some item that kept reviving. guess i need to level up some more by fighting the lower floor enemies a bit more
@Dezzy With some 3rd parties already on board with the price increase and the Gold price hike which while reversed it happening in the first place says a lot, I would not surprised if Xbox also increases to £70 games after Halo Infinite.
@Grumblevolcano Ratchet and Clank is my number one most anticipated game next gen but... Urgh, the £70 price tag makes me glad I don't have a PS5 yet (is it me or did they completely skip £60? I don't remember PS4 games costing that much)
Any game that isn't Nintendo drops in price so fast that it doesn't seem worth paying £50, let alone £70. I think the only games I paid full price for on the PS4 were Persona 5 Royal and Final Fantasy VII Remake, and those were both games that I could get 100+ hours out of, and released at the start of the pandemic. Pretty much every other major game I managed to get for £30 or less.

I found from playasia preorders, there were some cheap PS4 games got Remastered on PS5 in physical release.
I saw Panda Heroes, Summer Sport Games, Winter Sport Games, 3D Mini Golf, ...
@Dezzy On the PS store and some retailers they were. Naturally with physical games in general the price Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, etc. set is only a recommended price and plenty of retailers price the games cheaper. The reverse (launch price on digital store being cheaper than retail) doesn't happen of course because platform holders don't want to burn bridges with retailers.
On the online store that's true yes. I don't think I've ever bought a full price game on PSN though.
I dunno if I buy that they care about retailers though. I mean they both have digital versions of their new consoles, which cut retailers out of the picture entirely. I think the higher digital price is just because there's no supply side of the pricing system with digital goods, so they can pretty much choose to set the price at whatever they want.
