"ps2 prices"

how long before ps2 game prices go down to a sensible amount?

(no offence SR)

Think about it this way. You earn £5 an hour, word 8 hours and buy a game for £40.

If you spend more than 8 hours playing it, you have justified the cost. If you earn less than £5 an hour then you buy a game that will last at least the amount of hours that you had to work to get it, and people on £40 an hour can get pretty much any game and get their moneys worth.

Makes sense in a strange kinda way.

I'd agree with Aliboy.

I don't expect a drop in game prices any time soon. The price of the console will drop around Xmas and/or next spring, but the software won't. Even if it does, it won't be by much more than £5 I reckon.

More and more effort is going into the games than ever before... personally, I'm just happy the cost hasn't gone UP!

It took ages and ages before the ps1 software prices came down...

Yep - and they're still £30 after 6 years.

We rest our case! :-)

Thats the beauty of the platnium range, when it sells a certain amount of copies over a year or sommin like that you can get it for £20 or hopefully £15 for a PS2 title.

If the range does hit the PS2 it's a safe bet SSX will be one of the first.
