I'm talking about the ps1 classics. I would like games like destruction derby, crash bandicut, etc... to go down in price. Do you think they ever will?

Anyway I will finally start making decent money this summer once I get an intern and then after that its off to a real job.

Lower than $5.99 for the ps1 classics? That's doubtful, you are getting an entire game for $6 FFS!

If you don't like paying $6 for a game, how do feel about retail games that cost 10x as much?

That's just it, with a game like Wild ARMs, you get 50 hours of gameplay for $6! That's 12 cents an hour :o There's nothing else in life you can get for 12 cents an hour of pure entertainment.

While we're at it, come on guys, PAIN is the best PSN game (if you don't include ps1 classics), and it's only sold 60k copies, and it's only $10 :o

PAIN is a game? With only 1 level and 2 characters. What a joke PAIN is a glorified demo. Worst downloadable game ever. Even FLow and Pyotama are better. The only thing PAIN. can compete with is Super RubaDUb. You oughta be ashamed Sony.

Yea I was disappointed in that game. I expected much more than 1 level. That was a waste of $10.

I tried the demo that Sony sold to me as a game. It is a demo. Worst DLC game period. No wait a minute I think Creature Feature is the worst with PAIN a close second. I would not base comments off ignorance just personal experience. I feel PAIN is a rip off and I will not buy additional levels that should have been included. Worst $7.99 I spent on the PSN.

Damn I thought Sony ripped me off for $7.99 but it was $9.99. Damn you Sony. Don't get me wrong I kinda liked it but how can you call 1 level and 2 characters a game? I call it an add on or demo.

I might happen. But i don't really care.. I guess if i were a hobo living in a cardboard box, (with internet connection, HD TV and a PS3) it would be a good thing if they did lower the price... But since i do know how to make money, it's not that big of a deal. :lol: .. We're talking about money that people could be making in 10 seconds if they wanted to :lol:

I don't suppose the kind of work your talking about is illegal because if we are talking about making $6 in a minute thats $360 an hour. Thats $6 a minute as for what its at 10 seconds its quite a bit more and unless your some well liked hooker, movie star, or drug dealer I don't see anyone making that kind of money.

I think that $6 is quite a bit of money for a game or games that are 10 years old even if some of the games can last you 60 hours of gameplay. I wouldn't buy wild arms anyway but I would buy vagrant story and valkyrie profile for 10 or 6 dollars. I will end up buying some of the games at $6 dollars but I was just wondering if they were going to lower price. I personally think that 3 to 4 dollars a game is a perfect price.
