In reply to Dorsa. You bring up a good point. I wonder if they could justify a $10 a difference because people would not be getting physical disk/case. It seemed as if people really wanted that physical disk. But you are right, retailers may cause the prices to stay the same.

They can’t do it now man. They have to first see an effect of this, so I don’t expect price drops until at least three months into the cycle. At the very least.

It’s not as easy as that. What do you think the Retailers will say when digital prices undercut them by that margin?. Why do you think Steam prices for new releases are the same as retail?.

basically the retailers dictate pricing for digital. Don’t price it at similar prices to us.. Don’t have your games on our shelves.
