I have noticed for a while now, that PC games are far more cheaper than the console version of that game. I just want to know why. This has been bugging me for a long time, and now I think is the time to speak about it. Why can’t all games be priced the same, no matter what platform they are released on. For example, Need For Speed Shift has just been released for XBox 360, PS3, PC & PSP.
On the HMV website the prices are listed as £39.99 for the XBox 360 & PS3 versions, £26.99 for the PC version & £27.99 for the PSP version.
What I want to know is why is it when I want to buy a game for my XBox 360, I notice that the PC version is always £10 or £15 cheaper. In my view there is no change in the graphics of the game or the way the game is made, after all you make one game, and then port it to the relevant platforms, so why is it that PC games are always cheaper?
