I agree with you, Sammy, but I think a good solution is to just lower the price for everybody. Sony says they have to get some money back, but they would get more money back if more people bought the games, and Sony can boost sales by lowering the current prices. How many people will buy them at $10-15 / €10-15? How many people will buy them at 5-10? There are no manufacturing costs, in between.
That's right, they increased the prices of "old" games then announced a "special" offer. Also, physical games are much cheaper, I wonder when will Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo realise, it doesn't make any sense to sell digital games for a whopping price.
@get2sammyb My bad. At first glance, I thought they were going to release digital chapters and, after all of them had been released, a physical edition. Do you think there will be digital and physical editions of each "game"? Like you said, something like XIII, XIII-2 and XIII-Lighting Returns...?
So does this mean that the story and the game will be extended and each piece is going to be a huge chapter? Won't it be a physical release including all chapters like Resident Evil Revelations 2?

@get2sammyb Much appreciated. I have noticed that some games (e.g., Twisted Metal Black) is more expensive than on PS3. I know that there are some enhancements on PS4 (resolution and trophies, as far as I know), but I ask you guys if you believe PS2 games should be a bit cheaper on PS4 or are you okay with this?
Resident Evil better be survival horror, Capcom can exploit new Umbrella Corps series for shooter thrust. I'm quite excited about PS2 backwards compatibility, hey, don't complain, anything is better than PlayStation Now!!
This is good, but Sony could also give us PS newbies all the main Final Fantasy games on PS4 Store. I played VII on PC, IV on DS and now I got X/X2 on PS4.
I'll get it because I missed 5 and 6, but I expected 5 to come first, because it's older and better.
@tom189 I agree with you 100%. RE7 back to basics and Umbrella Corps. to be the shooter franchise. Why did Capcom mixed them in the first place if they are not afraid of creating new IPs?
So please Umbrella Corps for shooter games and Resident Evil for Resident Evil. Thank you.
@FullbringIchigo I just read your comment and it's exactly my thoughts. PS4 controller is really cool, including the touchpad, and the PS Store is perfect for smaller releases.

Re: Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection Gets a Crap New Cover
One more "great deal" package for a great video game package. Not the first, not the last.

Re: Naughty Dog Really Wants You to Believe That Drake Will Die in Uncharted 4
I only read the headlines and I feel I've already read a spoiler from Uncharted 4.
Re: Kojima Considered Taking a Mind-Cleansing Trip to a Desert Island
@Aslanmagic They made him rich and spoiled.
Perhaps while he is on a desert island we don't have to put up with him for a little while.
(Note: I like Metal Gear Solid games).
Re: Time to Tell Sony Which PS2 Games You Want on PS4
Project Zero/Fatal Frame games, please.

Re: Store Update: 8th December 2015 (Europe)
@sinalefa Thank you. I only have Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.
Re: Store Update: 8th December 2015 (Europe)
@sinalefa That one sounds tempting. Can you please tell me the differences between this version and the others?
Re: Store Update: 8th December 2015 (Europe)
@get2sammyb Wow! Sammy, good job with the price in main currencies. Not an easier way to check the European store updates than this
Re: Reaction: We Launch Our Limit Breaks on Episodic Final Fantasy VII Remake Reports
@Flaming_Kaiser Probably. Actually, FFXIII produced three games.

Re: PSX 2015: You Can Buy Final Fantasy VII PS4 Right Now on PSN
@ShogunRok Much appreciated.
Re: PSX 2015: You Can Buy Final Fantasy VII PS4 Right Now on PSN
@Riririn Easier for one writer than for thousand of readers though.
Re: Talking Point: Did PlayStation Experience 2015 Meet Your Expectations?
Good to see PS2 games arriving and news about FFVII remake and Uncharted 4.
Re: PSX 2015: The First PS2 Games Arrive on the PS4
Push Square: "The titles – which include Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Twisted Metal: Black, and more"
If you make an article of this at least tell the games, there are only 8. :S
Re: PSX 2015: Final Fantasy VII Remake Looks Incredible in Brand New PS4 Gameplay
@TromboneGamer It looks like an early build.
I'm rather excited about this, FFVII was in between my first Final Fantasy game.
Re: PSX 2015: You Can Buy Final Fantasy VII PS4 Right Now on PSN
By the way you can tell prices in € as well. It costs €10.99 here.
Re: PSX 2015: You Can Buy Final Fantasy VII PS4 Right Now on PSN
I can see it now in here Europe but I can't see any PS2 game yet!
Re: PSX 2015: This Final Fantasy VII PS4 Theme Will Give You Tingles
The theme is tempting but I'm going to wait for the remake.
Re: PSX 2015: Shawn Layden Trolled Us All with Crash Bandicoot Shirt
I have to agree with you Sammy.
Re: Four More PS2 Games for PS4 May Have Leaked
I just hope that they don't ignore Fatal Frame/Project Zero games.
Re: Poll: Take the Push Square PlayStation Experience 2015 Community Predictions Quiz
Resident Evil better be survival horror, Capcom can exploit new Umbrella Corps series for shooter thrust. I'm quite excited about PS2 backwards compatibility, hey, don't complain, anything is better than PlayStation Now!!
Re: No, Your PS2 Discs and PS2 Classics Won't Work on PS4
I hope Fatal Frame/Project Zero games are included.
Re: Wait, Final Fantasy XV's Development Is Actually Going Great Right Now?
This is good, but Sony could also give us PS newbies all the main Final Fantasy games on PS4 Store. I played VII on PC, IV on DS and now I got X/X2 on PS4.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Uncharted PS4 Sales Spike by 999 Per Cent
Yes I did Sammy, Journey Collector's Edition and Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster.
Re: Koei Tecmo Confirms Its Official Stance on Dead or Alive: Xtreme 3 Coming West
I won't get it but I hope it launches worldwide because I hate this prudish yet bloody violent Western hypocrite society.
Re: Final Fantasy VII PS4 Trophies Unleash Their Limit Break
The PC port of the PS classic is the only version I have played, now I want to play the PS4 remake of the PS classic.
Re: PSN Down Again as Holiday Traffic Surges
Sony should provide online solutions that suit its current leadership. I don't care if it was even worse last year!
Re: Your PlayStation Plus Sub Was Worth Over $1,100 This Year
Well, this is weird comparison as nobody would download and play all of the games offered, and might have bought some already.
Re: Your PS4's Seemingly Got a Little More Powerful in Secret
Yeah, they can make the OS as simple as they want, I only use my PS4 for playing games.
Re: PS4 Game Prices Slashed in European Black Friday PlayStation Store Sale
@Plateface Yeah, thanks. I purchased a few games: Final Fantaxy X/X-2 and Journey Collector's Edition.
Re: PS4 Game Prices Slashed in European Black Friday PlayStation Store Sale
Until when? The text does not say.
Re: Backlash Fears Have Stopped Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 From Coming West
It's really shocking how permissive our society is regarding any kind of violence and how prudish it is regarding any kind of sexual appeal.
Re: What if Crash Bandicoot Got a Gritty PS4 Reboot?
@Flaming_Kaiser Same here. Waste of time.
Re: Did You Buy Afro Samurai 2 on PS4? You Can Now Get a Refund
Good decision, I hope Nintendo and Microsoft do the same with the awful games available on their systems (I mean a few of them!) Don't read me wrong.
Re: Feature: 5 Reasons the Life of a PS4 Player Is Wonderful
Backwards compatibility coming! Reason #1.
Re: Talking Point: Which PS2 Games Would You Play on PS4?
@mookysam The visual upgrade will make any PS2 look much better on modern screens, look at this:
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2015-hands-on-with-ps4-playstation2-emulation
Any PS2 game you still want to play would be worth the downloading!
Re: Is Resident Evil 6 Getting Reanimated for PS4?
I'll get it because I missed 5 and 6, but I expected 5 to come first, because it's older and better.
@tom189 I agree with you 100%. RE7 back to basics and Umbrella Corps. to be the shooter franchise. Why did Capcom mixed them in the first place if they are not afraid of creating new IPs?

Re: Naughty Dog: Uncharted: Golden Abyss PS4 Not Out of the Question
@get2sammyb Hey, I think it would be a perfect PS Store fit then.
Re: PS2 Games Are Coming to the PS4, Sony Confirms
Oh my! This is the best piece of news I could ever read about any kind of stuff related to my one and only PS4! I'm serious.
Re: Talking Point: Which PS2 Games Would You Play on PS4?
There are more than two but the two I can't wait to play are:
Fatal Frame/Project Zero
Fatal Frame 3/Project Zero 3
I even sent an email to Sony requesting any kind of PS2 games support. PlayStation Now is not a good option!
Re: Capcom: There's Time for Xbox Fans to Purchase a PS4 Before Street Fighter V
I think it's going to be a system seller for fans, Street Fighter has a lot of fans.
Re: This PS4 Bundle Is for Everyone That Skipped the PS3
This should have been my bundle!!
Re: Feature: 25 Games That Will Make PS4's 2016 Insane
@JoeBlogs Good. I'll wait until the PS4 version is out and then decide which version should I buy.
Re: Feature: 25 Games That Will Make PS4's 2016 Insane
@JoeBlogs But I enjoyed Tomb Raider 2013.
Re: Feature: 25 Games That Will Make PS4's 2016 Insane
You can add Tomb Raider Rise of.
