re: PS4/God of War Developer bashes Gamestop and the used games market

lol, game pricing isn't done the same way it's done in the States as it is in other parts of the world.

Here, you never see sales on hardware. Everything is the MSRP. For software, games launch at MSRP and dwindle time from there through time and market demand.

In the UK (where the information leaked), retailers are given a lot more margin on sales and thus you see price drops of software and hardware all the time, and often on day 1. No one actually pays the MSRP over there.

That said, you could also argue that the price increase was correcting now that the pound isn't as valuable (especially considering those prices were set in 2005/6).
