PSP Go already discounted in the UK

[Guild McCommunist]

For a second I thought it said "discontinued". Wait a bit and we may see that.

I guess this really shows the "confidence" Sony has in their system.

The concept of the Go seems ahead of its time, but the lack of some games on the PSP not to mention no backward compatibility makes it already fail. I think many current PSP owners will stick to their classic PSP.

I swear Europe gets all the cool Sony stuff. They get all the good PS3 bundles and they get discounts. D:

We get pretty piss poor exchange rates you know.
Our £200 PSP Go is $318 right now.

so true, Europe usually gets fucked over. DS games cost something like $30 in the US so roughly £18, in the UK their £30 with some at £35. It seems that game companies haven't heard of exchange rates.

It seems you haven't heard of taxes.

No company will admit they're wrong.

Epic fail sony, I think they are slowly getting phased out and nintendo and Microsoft will own the gaming world

Actually EA admitted it.

 

[WeakNiZ]

WhaT did EA do?

 

[Hadrian]

WhaT did EA do?

Pretty much admitted that they were wrong with milking franchises, making crap, treating gamers like crap and all that. Sort of like what Activision are doing now.

 

[WeakNiZ]

Activision + Blizzard, milking the SC2 franchise and stalling it's release date. =[

Is the PSP Go THAT bad? I wasn't gonna buy it but I thought that some people would think that it's cool. You know, the whole "Digital Download" crap.

 

[Agjsdfd]

LOL, I read discontinued! I was like soundz good, maybe some new handheld is coming up.

It WOULD have been cool if it was priced competitively. During these hard economic times, pricing a handheld unit that high is like a slap to the face. Plus alot of people might not have access to Wifi. I don't think it's Crap, I just think its marketed horribly.

 

[iFish]

i read discontinued as well

 

[Cermage]

the cheapest here in aus i've seen it is 425... retailing at 449.

though i find it funny eb, probably the biggest franchise that sells games is refusing to stock it.
