Re: Talking Point: Should Sony Mirror Steam's Discount Strategy for PSN?

Epic

Steam is the main plataform of distribution of PCs, its the only way to get games because the retail market there's nonexistent and everything is controlled by DRM policies(They are a bit open but still it counts as DRM).
Developers tend to never reduce prices for their main focus on the retail market and the fact it has a huge flaw with the resell retailers, when gamestop sell an used copy of MAG the earning goes for them, not for the deveoper/publisher. This is why developers always keep pushing the inclusion of DAY ONE DLC and Pre Order bonuses to avoid their target to resource to second hand copies and pay full price for them. That's why we can't find all these huge amazing sales around, even thought they try sometimes its already when the game is extremely old or it has recieved a lot of hate from critics.
Everything I stated is just my guess and used my limited knowledge of Steam, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: Talking Point: Is PlayStation Plus Helping or Hindering the PS Vita?

PS+ may bring out a completly new audience, the one that only plays PS+ games but I still don't see it affecting overall sales of the Vita it justs adds a different consumer approach.
Its still pretty sad the Tearaway even though it was a GOTY contender has been extremely weak on sales T_T
I'm even considering buy my friend the game just to play it on his Vita.
