Then again, these games are also frequently on sale on PSN as well. HZD was even given away for free at one point.I imagine sales are not exactly what Sony expected

one is considerably newer than the other?Looks like Uncharted 4 will launch at 50 dollars.... wonder why, Spider-man was 60....
A little more than 2 years between them (I know it’s a remaster but still) is not really a big gap. They’re both old games.one is considerably newer than the other?
Sony is the one who decides if their games go on sale and what the discounts are for each price.I imagine sales are not exactly what Sony expected
Sony said the results were better than they expected and as a result increased their planned investment/yearly output of future PC ports.I think Sony tested the water at 60 on PC for an old game and didn’t see good results.
I just can't help but feel Spiderman would have had a higher ATH concurrent players on Steam during launch if they asked 49.99 for it. I honestly thought it would go higher than God of War but maybe I overestimated the popularity of Spiderman. I wonder how much they'll ask for TLOU Part 1.Sony said the results were better than they expected and as a result increased their planned investment/yearly output of future PC ports.
Sony did $80M the last FY and this one with GoW, both Spider-Mans and both Uncharteds they plan to make $300M. Very profitable business considering the low cost of the ports and that these games already generated all they could on console.
People on PC don't value their games yet, they need to come in at reasonable prices relative to basically everything else on the platform in order to retain customers.I just can't help but feel Spiderman would have had a higher ATH concurrent players on Steam during launch if they asked 49.99 for it.

Launch sales on Steam are a small portion of the total sales. In PC players mainly buy when discounted, and I assume more in the case of a game like thes ones, which are ports of 4 years old games (10 in the case of TLOU) that already sold like 20M+ copies and have been included on PS+ before being released on PC.I just can't help but feel Spiderman would have had a higher ATH concurrent players on Steam during launch if they asked 49.99 for it.

Average Buy In:
DG: $14
HZD: $15
GOW: $30 (only because it was going off of Nvidia GeForce Now)
Has anyone actually played that Predator game? I remember hearing it was pretty good but as much as I love online games I’ve never been crazy about those Hunter vs Prey games where it’s 3 v 1 like Evolve or something.
I wonder if it has cross play. It would probably need it at this point. I mean do have the game from ps plus in some form but I never touched it. Love predator too…
