Sony Japan reveals price point for PS3 launch titles

[Darksaviour69]

First-party games to retail for just under 6000 Yen

Sony Japan has announced that two of its first-party launch titles - Genji and Resistance: Fall of Man - will go on sale priced at 5980 Yen, equivalent to around GBP 27 or 40 Euros.

Both games are set to launch alongside the PlayStation 3 on November 11. Another Sony-published title, MotorStorm, will hit the shops on December 7, also priced at 5980 Yen.

The announcement comes just weeks after Sony Computer Entertainment America revealed that first-party titles will cost US$59.99 in the States. There's still no word as to how much games will cost European consumers, however.
