Price Drops for PS4 Launch Games
Potential consumers of the PS4 may have been put off buying the console if they'd caught sight of the high prices - compared with the same products on Xbone One of launch titles but apparently sanity has prevailed.

Major titles such as FIFA 14, Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed 4 were being priced for some reason at up to £8 more on PS4 than Xbox One until Sony exerted some muscle. Not that this is making games pricing the good side of sane...

Assassin's Creed 4 is now £54.99 on PSN and Xbox One. FIFA 14, Battlefield 4, Madden NFL 25, NBA Live 14 and Need for Speed: Rivals are all £54.99 on PSN.

Sony has issued a statement to Eurogamer stating, "Although PS4 launches in Europe on the 29th November, we have switched on the European PSN early to test and make sure that features and functionality are fully operational for launch," Sony told Eurogamer.

"However, as PS4 and PSN have not yet officially launched in this region, nothing on the PSN is final, including pricing on the store. You will continue to see some prices adjusted over the next few days in preparation for launch on Friday."

So, are you going to buy a PS4? Let is know in the comments.
