Cheats and Walkthroughs
Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) announced that Gran Turismo PSP will cost 4,400 yen for the digital version and 5,400 yen for the UMD. This information was revealed at Sony's Tokyo Game Show 2009 press conference. It will be interesting to see if other territories follow suit and offer cheaper prices for digital downloads. Considering that packaging, shipping, retail, and other costs are removed from the equation, a discount seems reasonable. However, I can easily see publishers saying that digital downloads offer instant entertainment and the price should be the same since you don't have to trek to a store or wait for a game to arrive to you by mail. (It's BS, but I can see publishers saying it.)
What do you think of Sony Japan's pricing for digital games? Will it become the norm in America and Europe? Or will the prices be the same for digital and physical copies?

They should be cheaper. You don't even get a manual or cool box art

Yes! this would be awesome to spread. I wouldn't pay the same for a dd that I would pay for the disc.
On an unrelated note, I am interested to see who xbl's games on demand service is selling...

Its what many gamers have been saying for a while now. Digital should be cheaper-period. You want me to spend how much for a "Games on Demand" title?- No thanks.

Finally, digital downloads should always be cheaper.
