So this has just come out but apparently has been in practice since November. Honestly this makes my blood boil. I left xbox due to their stance on exclusives and now if this carrys on i might jump ship on playstation when the steam machine comes out. This is so anti consumer.

    1. I won’t buy a game in my region without checking I’m getting the same price as others. I don’t mind regional pricing, but if me and a friend go to the same store in the same location at the same time and get offered the same product but at different prices I wouldn’t buy it.

      This goes for anything, I don’t like dynamic pricing on anything and will avoid it as much as possible

      Xbox has been doing this for some time. The dynamic pricing is also based below the set price (ie: dynamic discount).

    3. Seeing as Sony is a company and as such it’s only goal is profit, I’m 100% sure this will quickly go from “here’s a special discount for u based on ur tastes” to “u seem like to like this genre/series so it’s more expensive for u :D”
