    It's possible that this suit is being brought to draw attention to the issue of overcharging and microtransactions. It makes sense to pick a company and sue them, because then, if they say "but every other company does this", that draws more attention than if the suit said it. I'm not sure that the intent is to win, but to call for political action.

They lose some money in exchange they get you hooked into their ecosystem (games, services, internet, DLC, etc.). This is far more valuable than losing some money on consoles. Sony does have some great exclusives but I think they have a lot of crossover with Pc and Microsoft. Nintendo has the advantage in terms of IP because you know their games are never going to be legally available on PC, PS or Xbox anytime soon.

    The same attempt was done in America very recently and the judge denied it with a solid reasoning: it is their store in their eco system. In contrary to the PC market there is basically no other competitor. Thus the same groundings as the steam debate cannot be applied here.

    I do remember when the Australian dollar was up toothere was a point where 70usd was only like 85-90 aud and all consoles were selling new games for $100 still but the thing that I had an issue with is triple A titles that were out for years are still full price, gta on disc was like $50 max at like eb and jb because it was old but yet on the ps4 store it was still $100, games don’t ever drop price in the ps4 store, and I no longer have a PlayStation but from what I hear they still do it, occasional sales aren’t exactly good enough for a game that barely values over $20 but yet it’s still full price, like overwatch, that game is still full price, I moved to PC cause of keys, you can get old games for like 5 bucks and it’s so convenient

    Yeah, it also depends on your countries minimum wage and prices on things like healthcare and tuition for college and how much your country spends on military and such, places with free healthcare have higher tax rates, but also probably have a higher minimum wage, so it mostly evens itself out, since Americans have to spend a ton of money on college and healthcare, the tax rates are lower making the price of games and other things lower, but if an American decided to convert their money into another countries currency and moved there, things would be more expensive because that country has higher taxes, prices rise globally due to things like war or global warming or overpopulation, in short the prices are completely fair and balanced to the specific countries currency, it’s only when you move countries that it might seem overpriced

    I think this is much better ammo than anything they're brought forth in this lawsuit - Sony adjusted the price up for AUD so their compensation would remain the same in USD, but in countries where the conversion rate goes the other way, they've kept prices the same per numerical unit, thus earning them MORE than their "fair" share. N that is ultimately the basis for this baseless case. I do wanna see my console friends be treated better, I do often forgot it's special I get the chance to buy a whole pile of farcry games for $40 on steam sales.

    See there's just something different about Sony. I mean I do sound biased and I'll have to admit I'm an Xbox User, but only for the reason of gamepass. I just don't appreciate how Sony which they have, and clearly have, paid for games not to come to Xbox, until a certain date, and it's usually a year or 2 away from when it releases which is stupid. It is purely anti-competitive and it is fine to have exclusive games, that's probably the only reason people buy a playstation, but it's not right to harm the rights of Microsoft to not be able to have a sustainable buisness model.

    The £70 games were actually like ~$90+ until up to a few months ago because the UK has really high inflation right now and GBP fell 12% against USD in just 4 months. So it was actually a lot worse for a long time. However what people are forgetting to tell you is we have value added tax (VAT) in the UK, so tax is added to the price not after sale. That adds 20% to the price. Before this current economic blip, we were paying about £8 too much for every £70 game but right now it's working out about right to the USD, but it's not black and white, in the UK we are struggling right now economically and they just increased the price of the PS5 by £30 too... I'd say the UK RRPs are too high all around from Sony.

    It's been said before, but the monopoly claim was referring to the process of buying games/digital items/etc on play station, and that the Playstation Store is the only option available. Basically, this is the same argument towards Apple having a monopoly on iPhones because they required all apps/etc be purchased through their Appstore with Apple getting a cut of all transactions, and no third parties were supported. Their wording could use some improvement, but that seems to be what they were intending in the claim.

    You've been misinformed, the reason games are more expensive in the UK and Scandinavia for example is not because they are overcharging, we have taxes that you guys don't have and that is included in that price, if you were to have those taxes and pay for them the prices for your games would go up as well. This is also the reason why the consoles and even PC parts are more expensive over here as well. As an example, we have plastic tax and a sugar tax in Sweden as well, which makes all the food more expensive too because tax-prices in our country are included in the price on the shelf, which is different from how it is in the US. This lawsuit is a joke they have no idea what they are talking about. I'm not saying the lawyers are terrible but they have wandered into an area where they know nothing and are trying to win a case. This won't go well for them.

    2:30 I think the part you're missing here is that Xbox and Nintendo both allow digital codes redeemable for digital games on their marketplace, to be sold through other retailers like GameStop, Best Buy and etc. Those retailers can and do offer discounts different than any console's online store. The affect this has on the market is that Sony can charge anything they want for their digital games specifically. So the issue isn't exactly about a monopoly on ALL digital games, it's that Sony has a monopoly on digital Playstation games. Edited to add - the issue is really ass for anyone that owns a Digital PS5 as they have literally zero choice but to pay what Sony demands. I am no lawyer but THAT is the part I would have focused on.

    The problem with US to UK price conversion is that, yes, on the surface it seems dumb to say 70 USD gets turned into 70 GPB, but remember that in the UK prices presented to general consumers *must* be inclusive of taxes including the government's own 20% VAT charge. In the US, taxes vary so much by state that this isn't doable and prices are advertised exclusive of taxes. I'd wager the price parity is actually pretty strong between countries, once you account for those differences.

    One thing that really bugs me about Sony despite me always being a PlayStation user is how they seem to outright REFUSE to fix the services list, every time I try to go into it on my PS4 to see my subscriptions so I can cancel them it’s always “An error has occurred.” and I’ve tried fixing it yet it’s still completely inaccessible. So unless I want to unwillingly keep shelling out loads of money monthly for subscriptions I don’t want anymore I have to manually remove my card information…

    70 dollars for a game is too much though. I know it’s kind of beside the point, but it is correct that digital games should be cheaper since they don’t need to distribute and/or make the discs. 40 dollars should be more than enough. In some countries 70 dollars is nearly impossible to pay.

    If anything comes out of this, I really really hope it's regional pricing like steam, because third world countries have the store prices on US dollars instead of our country's currency, and it does not take into account the taxes that each country could impose on digital sales, making sales in one of these third world countries super low. For example in my country, Argentina, for a $60 game we end up paying the equivalent of $105 because of a combined 75% tax, and of course Sony is not to blame for a county's taxes, but this does affect their sales heavily. Steam knew that and that's why the Argentina Steam store is the cheapest steam store in the world, it's better for business to earn less from lower priced games that earn nothing from overpriced games.

    I've actually been wondering about the price politics in different countries. On SteamDB you can compare prices of games, according to the country of purchase. So a game in Argentina would cost me about a fifth of the price when converted to my currency, e.g. Age of Empires 4 would cost 7-8€ instead of 35€ (Euros). Of course this has to do with a lot of things, and I obviously can't simply buy all my games in Argentina, even though I would to save me some bucks. But I can relate that digital games in the respective stores (be it Nintendo or PS Store) always tend to stay more expensive a lot longer than Amazon or physical copies of games would cost me. And even if they go on sale, they're not nearly as cheap as elsewhere. Atleast as long as you don't have an active Ps Plus subscription, it's usually just not worth it.
