Played through the whole thing last night, awesome game. I haven’t played such a great horror game for awhile now, way better than the Silent Hill games (other than Silent Hill 1, which was also directed by Toyama). I’m glad Toyama left Konami after Silent Hill 1 to join Sony and is making Siren games. >:|

@8 [mobiletone]:

14.99 pounds sterling?

That’s cheap! Almost paid double for my Asian (Hong Kong) Blu-ray title (including Recorded delivery).

Did you pre-order & get a copy of the Soundtrack CD as well?

3p or not 3p, that is (not) the question.

Are you really complaining about 3p?

The Americans get 3 one-thirds of the entire game for $15 each. The whole game for $40. What’s difficult to understand about that?

Yup, sadly just PS3 for now.

The European pricing structure is another interesting quirk of this title:

[ /blog/2008/07/siren-blood-curse-release-info/ ]

On the 24th of July, four Siren Blood Curse chapters will be released. Each chapter will contain three consecutive episodes from the series. The game will also be released as a full four chapter bundle on the same day. The full game will cost £19.99, with individual chapters costing £4.99.
—

So, 4 x £4.99 = £19.96… if there are only ever going to be four chapters, what do we get for the extra 3p for the “full game”?

And spot the issue with this statement…

…The survival horror game will be downloadable for a discount price of only $40 for the entire game … or $15 for each episode pack. Each episode pack will contain four episodes, with each episode averaging about an hour or two of gameplay each. That’s 4-8 hours of gameplay for $15 each. Buy all three episode packs and save $5.

“Siren” around the point of the pricing model for the US.

Let the (blood) cursing commence…
