PostGameBlues Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) $750 AUD for Disk and $599 AUD for Digital. Considering I was expecting $800+ I'm pleasantly surprised lol. Definitely getting disk version due to memeworthy prices of new games on AUS PSN. I might save $150 right away by going Digital but I know I'll save a ton more in the long run going with Disk.

Can't wait to pay 600 dollars for the standard edition in Europe. In Europe it's the final price. In USA taxes come to it. Roughly +20%. I'm very happy with the price and now just wait a year or two until good games are released more than just 1 or 2 i want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodytears1666 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Yeah, being a game collector will become more expensive, not only by console, but disc prices as well. Got to rethink it for a while... how it is worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this still doesn't seem to be clear - your EU prices include VAT. The 500 Euros is the final price. The US (and Canadian prices) are pre-tax. Depending on the state/province there will an addition 5-10% (or more) added to the US price. For the most part, you are NOT paying more in EU than US.

DaikichiKawachi Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I think I'm going to get the digital edition. Since GCU expired I haven't purchased any new games physically because digital sales are nearly always better and I'm keeping my PS4 so not being able to use those discs I have already wont be a problem. The $100 savings is probably worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The $100 savings is probably worth it. I find new release games are always more expensive on the store though. Here in Aus I can get a brand new title for $79 or sometimes $69 in a physical release but on the store it's always $100 or more. Yes, they have more sales for older games but that $100 discount on the digital console won't even cover a few new release games for me. I went with the disc drive version. Edited September 16, 2020 by PeachyJacobs Edit: The difference in price for the 2 consoles here is actually $150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PostGameBlues Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Disk version already sold out here in Australia after about 1.5 hours. Digital still available. Guess many still prefer going disk lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This exactly. All my friends went for disk for the exact reason. Also kinda funny that at my local Ebgames the manager I'm friendly with were adamant it'll be $850 and I can't wait to rub it in that I was right all along to them.

That's not the case here in the US but totally makes sense why you would go the physical route in your region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deutschZuid Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 820/650 in New Zealand - a bit more expensive than US when you take into consideration the market exchange rate.. but i guess there is the freight cost, import tax as well as our goods and services tax to account for.

Undead Wolf Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 It's a good price, especially for the digital-only version. Sony must be taking quite a big loss with every one of those sold, hoping they'll make it back in software sales. I'm sure being cheaper by $100 will tempt a lot of normies. The price of that version is irrelevant to me though - I get my games physically whenever possible and that's not going to change next gen either. I'll be getting the disc version, but I'm in no rush. Maybe by the time I buy one, they'll bundle in a game or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 $749 and no launch games that I’m really keen to play. Definitely going to be waiting a while before buying one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
