PS3 games to cost less than 360 games in UK

One would hope so, as the average 360 game costs £45-49 with most
being £39.

If PS3 games truly are set at £39, then that is a much better deal in
the long run.

However, you'll have to buy 15 games to make up the difference in
asking price

Disc-based titles to cost EUR 59.99

Sony has announced pricing plans for first-party PlayStation 3 titles,
revealing that disc-based games will cost EUR 59.99 / GBP 39.99 at
launch.

Launch titles will include Motorstorm, Resistance: Fall of Man, Genji
and Ridge Racer 7, plus Formula One Championship Edition. They will
cost AUD 99.95 in Australia and NZD 109.95 in New Zealand, where PS3
is also launching on March 23.

Sony also hinted at pricing for downloadable games such as
BlastFactor, flOw and Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection, which will be
available via the PlayStation Network service. For an "introductory
period", they will cost between EUR 2.99 and EUR 9.99.

Downloadable content will start at EUR 0.99, rising according to
what's on offer. According to Sony, content "could range from a new
SingStar track to a premium pack for MotorStorm" including a new
track, extra vehicles and multiplayer modes.

SCEE boss David Reeves commented, "Not only will it be completely free
to register on the PlayStation Network with no subscription fees and
access to many free demos, but with these competitive prices for
additional content we are able to offer the consumer both top quality
games on Blu-ray discs and a whole range of downloadable content.

"With over 30 first and third party disc and network games available
at launch, we are confident that this will be one of the most
successful launches of all time."

By pricing its games at GBP 39.99, Sony is undercutting Microsoft when
it comes to first-party titles - Xbox 360 games have an official RRP
of GBP 49.99. Games for the Nintendo Wii, however, also cost GBP 39.99.
