Horizon Forbidden West offers a free upgrade to PS5 if you get the $60 PS4 version, but PS5 standalone is $70

Uhh Sony? 
 

that’s a odd oversight, but good to know because it’s going to save a bunch of people $10.

they announced that after some people were complaining, around Spring last year, if I remember correctly.

 

because the game was announced around the time of launch, some vocal people felt that it should be treated to the same free upgrade options as other PS5 launch period games.

 

I'm not complaining. if anything i'd be curious trying out both versions to see just how close or different they really are.

This just shows there’s no reason for brand new current gen games to be $70. That’s just publishers being greedy.

Yeah especially now that they'll make part of their money back on PC. Even Sony down the line.

They are still pushing that 70$ USD price point? Fuck them. 

 

I burst out laughing when I saw FF7 Remake Intergrade for 93,49$ CAD before taxes on EGS. That mean I would have to pay 107,49$ in my province for one fucking game. 

 

Games are expansive enough as it is. There is no justification for another price increase.
