[quote name='turls']I love these types of predictions on CAG that are never right. Its already $29.99 free ship new at NewEgg. Probably on sale for $20 any time now somewhere. I think PS/3 exclusives don't hold value too well.[/QUOTE]
Exclusives.. hmm maybe, but as an owner and impulse buyer of all games (on all systems) used. take a look on Ebay or half.com, or any used marketplace. Multiplatform games are ALWAYS cheaper on the 360 then the PS3. I have yet to figure out why. PS3 is has a fairly low user base (USA, world wide its only about a 1/3rd behind the 360) in the largest Ebay market. Hence you would think the prices would be lower as less demand. Maybe 360 games are cheaper as there are simply more of them? I am not aying any system is better or anything here, just looking at it as a cheap gamer. I buy all the Exclusives, and the PS3 ones alwasy seem to hang onto value longer so i get um much later (little big planet and MGS4 the lone exceptions, i suspect as they are the first "big" ones) I picked up Halo and ODST both NEW for $19 less then 2 months after release, but I cant get Uncharted (old), Foklore, Resistance2, etc Used price for that still and they are all old.
I do believe the prices in the USA are simply a numbers (installed user base) game. More people wityh 360's, more used games on market, smaller prices. But i could be wrong.
