PlayStation Store Price Adjustments
By Michael Pugliese - May 5th, 2008
It looks like Sony is finally showing some love to us up here in the Great White North. Changes that have already taken effect as of May 1st will see Canadian prices for downloadable content at the PlayStation Store align more closely with the US pricing model. The reasoning stated in an earlier press release by Sony was due to the ongoing strength of the Canadian dollar.
This price adjustment is most welcome as I never really understood why I had to pay a few dollars more for a download than someone over the border, especially when the Canadian dollar has been consistantly on par or better with US currency. So what does everyone think? Will this adjustment be persuading you PS3 and PSP owners to purchase more off the PlayStation store, or did it really never bother you?

2 responses so far:I love playing Games like: Red Faction 1,(0 Rating), if you get stuck and have no instructions then your left on your own trying to fend everyone off on your own (which I am!)Personally, I really prefer Red Faction 2(10+ Rating)is way cooler and the graphics are much more realistic! The History Channel - Battle For The Pacific (10+ Rating), Shadow Of Colossus (? Rating), All I’ve been doing is riding around in circles on horseback trying to find out where these rock dudes are, lol! Last but, not least is, Syphon Filter - Dark Mirror (10+ Rating)!
If I’m shopping around for a new or used game I’ll either go to, EB Games, Game Shack or Zeller’s or other Video Game Stores as for the prices some of them are really priced unfairly even if our canadian dollar is suppose to doing and yes, of course it bothers me!
