I don't know how much stock I'd put in that info but Kaz Hirai pretty much admitted PS3 games would cost more back in his dingy PSM interview.

It sucks because I know I'll end up paying $700 just to play MGS4.

i dont think its gonna happen, i know people have been willing to spend $59 for games, but i'm not really sure how willing people will be to spend $69 or more for games.

If people keep buying them, they will just keep rising the price.

At this rate kids will start killing each other for video game money instead of drug money.

Looks like the next generation of games will be in the hundreds ($$$) before you know it.

Kinda reminds me of when SNES games were running $70 or so at their peak.

But yea, that's horrible. I'll just wait to experience the games way later.

MUCH later.

Re: Sony Computer Entertainment Wants OmegaDragon's Paycheck

I don't see how this would change anyone's mind one way or another. If you've already spent the $1,000 on a high-def TV and had no problem spending the $700 on the PS3, you're not going to start pinching pennies on games that are $10-15 dollars more expensive. It's clear Sony's targetted a high-end niche market as opposed to the broader cross-section of the gaming populace that the PS2 appealed to.

If you factor in inflation, the SNES games at $70 cost much more. The current price in new games is something most gamers would be able to swallow if the entry into the market didn't start at 700, with a high-def TV being mandatory if you want to consider that 700 well-spent.

The PS3 will only be for the social elite, to tinker with while they sip their high end drinks and yacht down the East River in NYC.
