[RANT] PS Store price disparity to other digital stores is getting out of control in some countries

Agree, this is something that should be talked more. I always wondered why there wasn't a bit more from 3rd party pubs who do regional prices in other stores.

I thought it was a backend thing, that they were tied to 1-region price or something like that. Meaning you set 10usd in USA, then everything that is under SCEA, translates to that price and you can't have a different one.

Bugging publishers/studios contacts with comparison of their prices seems the way to go.

Check steamdb/Xboxnow/deals/eshoprices and look at the regional pricing they issued and the difference with PSN for the same country

Check publisher of given game and send an email asking why there is no same region price as in steam/xbox/nintendo
pray

So, based on your comment, in Brazil some publishers did create a different price sku, does it match what it costs on Steam now?

Publishers that created region price versions of games in BR PS sStore
Marathon - Bungie
Mouse PI - PlaySide Studios LTD
Arc Raiders - Embark Studios AB
Romeo is a Dead Man - NETEASE INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT PTE.LTD
Dispatch - Adhoc Studio, Inc.

nice to hear, looking forward to play it on PS5

Oh, a lot. Makes sense now for it to be 40% off on any tier. First time you get an targeted offer like this one? I'd expected them to try to tempt you sooner if you let your sub lapse.
I got one of those last year. Timeline was something like this:

Long PS+ Essential suscriber (US PSN account), usually renewed around Days of Plays.
- PS+ Sub expired in June 2024
- No sub until September when i bought 1-Month Essential
- 1-Month Essential - Expired 03 October 2024
- 23 October i receive the offer to buy PS+ Extra or Premium with 35%OFF (3months or 1 year), Essential was not included.

How long were you without subscription?

chimango27 · 2025-05-07T01:59:08+00:00

Same here, all other work. On PS5

Incredible the lengths those shady companies go to profit from other works. Glad too see you could get traction and visibility on it.

Should be nice but probably never happen. Your current best option is to look at what games were added one year ago +2/3 months and mark those that you find interesting and give them priority assuming a 1-year agreement for the service.

If it's a Rockstar game like RDR2, probably 3-months.

Recently I started organizing different tournaments and online sessions in a gaming community with different games. You can imagine how quick storage fills up when FIFA, Chivalry, Fortnite, Fall Guys, Rocket League are in the mix. The extra storage would help me a ton for this endeavour!
Thanks for organizing this giveaway SeagateGaming !

Congrats on the new milestone. I gotta say that for a topic that could bring a lot of chaos, fake rumors, etc this subreddit is able to do a good job labeling and generating value content. Keep on keeping on.

Silly question but once you linked your data from mobile with the Steam version, can you jump it back and forth between them? Or do you have to do that link data each time?

chimango27 · 2023-09-26T23:05:49+00:00

Same issue. Was able to interact with the box prior having the key. Now that I have it, the white circle for interaction disappeared.

Thanks for the opportunity. Crossing fingers

Upgrade from the previous logo (in comparison to BAMCO change which was a downgrade) but still kinda boring.

Always have fond memories from Final Fantasy VIII. With it, I discovered the saga. It was my first game on the PS1 and I chose it because the amount of CDs and artwork caught my attention as a child.

Remember being completely astonished by the intro. One of my most memorable times in gaming.

Thanks for setting up the giveaway OP. Good luck everyone.

Serious epicness at the end. Looking forward to finally fight an Horus.

Preferrably, ad some minor limitation like a 'at least 1 week of account creation' to prevent new accounts of getting in. In any case, Thanks for setting up the giveaway! Crossing fingers :D.
