So I was crusing amazon when I noticed Heavenly sword and Uncharted on sale, the sale price you may ask, its $55. Yea thats right $55 for a game that came out in 2007 and thats the sale price, the normal cost is the regular $60, now lets put that in perpective, Halo 3 that came out around the same time costs $40 on the 360 and its much longer than the measly 6 hours of heavenly sword. So ps3 owners sure you dont have to pay for online, but sony sure ruins that advantige with a $400 console and $60 games that are almost 3 years old.

PS: Fable 2 now costs $40 and that game is only 6 months old

Here in the UK you can buy those games for about £10. The only game I can think of that's too expensive is COD4. Still about £30 for that one.

Some of the mario games are pretty bad too.

You're inability to find good prices for products does not equate to additional costs. Essentially your argument isthat you could spend the full price for a video game for the PS3 console, even though you could actuallyfind it cheaper,a couple of years after its been released andthat must equate to thecost of Xbox live. What?

Not for me, it had flaws that no one really talks about. I paid $40 for Uncharted, and good thing I did too.

I know. I would have purchased Uncharted if it still wasn't $60. I just rented it twice to play it. I was finally glad that the price on Ratchet was dropped. Got that.

You can probably get HS for cheap as used. Seeing as it is such a short game a used copy is practically new. ^_^

Yeah, amazon has some funky pricing schemes on old software sometimes. Yesterday, on the PSP forum, I was trying to find a GS member a copy of Pirates! and Amazon lists it for $87.95! Then I saw D&D Tactics, for $99.98, and started looking elsewhere...

I'm not paying that much for Heavenly Sword....I HAD to play Drakes though. Why are they still that high? C'mon...that's one thing that I do like about the 360, their games come down. Only old game I bought that was still high was COD4, but that's on both consoles.

Eh... you mean these?   I dunno how it's done in the US, but you sure as hell can't sell platinum hits for the full price in Europe.
