How Will Sony Price Warhawk?
Posted by XanTium | 2-8-2007 0:14 EST
From 1up.com: [QUOTE] How much are you willing to pay for Warhawk? You'll have to answer that for yourself later this month when Sony Computer Entertainment America launches Warhawk for PlayStation 3. In a bold move, the company will be offering Warhawk as a retail product on a Blu-ray disc with a Bluetooth headset for $59.99 and a PlayStation Network downloadable at a different price. So far, Sony isn't telling anyone what that price is will be -- yet we're only a few weeks from launch.
In the original announcement, SCEA said the retail version would include Warhawk, behind-the-scenes development videos and a Bluetooth headset valued at $39.99. Let's do the math. $59.99 - $39.99 = $19.99, right? Logically, Warhawk should show up on PSN for about $20. Realistically, no one expects that, but according to comments on our message boards, $30 seems to be the sweet spot for most. [/QUOTE]

Weird, I wonder why they are selling it so low. I thought it was a full game, so to sell it for much cheaper doesn't make alot of sense. Only thing I can see them doing this for is to raise the install base maybe.
Would be cool if more games followed suit and gave you a lil extra for your money.

That depends on what you mean by "full game". They dropped the single-player portion of the game a while back. And it is cheaper to distribute digitally.
