Wow, they should have at least given SOME kind of price break.

What's the difference in buying this and buying the bundle/headset separately?

Nevers5802d ago

When I went thru the process they still were adding $57 for tax and about $17 for the lowest shipping on top of the $559.98 for the bundle.

>so Gamestop raised the price by $60 it looks like to me, so that headset doesn't sound very free anymore.

Tomdc5802d ago

its obviously just a way to make you buy more... the rules of suply and demand state that they have complete controll =)

This is how gamestop always operates when there's limited supply.

Especially with the Wii.

znu5802d ago

headsets should have already been with ps3 at launch, now there's no one online with them

MGS4, the ps3's biggest game is going to ship with it, is that a bad thing? well kinda cause its expensive for a person but for people who already have it its better since we have more communicative MGO.

Does this headset have a quick mute like the 360s, the jabra from warhawk has a button but that takes two or three seconds to register the mute. would be cool if it did.

That's where I bought my PS3. Saved $40 dollars in taxes and $20 in shipping.... :)

Max Power5802d ago

tempting if the reviews for the headset were less than favorable, but i guess for some who don't know much about these things might think that is a good deal.

I hope they have done some preparation!

Why Monopolies In Gaming Must Not Be Allowed

As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.

thorstein7h ago

Shouldn't be allowed in any field.

And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.

Eventually they’ll realize the value is with the employee not the company. Buying an IP means nothing if the people who contributed are let go. They’ll get it one day.

tech is different because they buy threats and then kill them. Twitter bought Vine and did nothing with it. Despite people seemingly liking it. Could've had tiktok a decade before bytedance. go figure.

Zenzuu3h ago

Monopolies shouldn't be allowed regardless. Not just for gaming.

MrCrimson1h ago

They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
