We all know that the original StarCraft is pretty much South Korea’s national sport but what you possibly didn’t know is how much of the entire StarCraft economy is taken by South Korea. In a nutshell 43% of all StarCraft players are in South Korea and just under 50% of all the sales of StarCraft were in South Korea alone. …
Earlier today we posted that game prices will be seeing a hike as of the 27th of October. While we were worried that games may be seeing as much as R850 per title, it looks like we might be able to relax a little bit. South African distributor Megarom have seen the article and have sent me a price list of the titles that will be releasing after that date and I can happily say that while the price increase will still happen, we won't likely be seeing the prices that we feared. Prices and more after the jump. From what I have seen on this price list, there will be no standard titles that will exceed the R699 mark. Here is a list of some of the big titles coming from Megarom. If any other distributors would like to clarify any of there RRP's please feel free to mail me at nick@lazygamer.co.za. End of October: James Bond - Quantum of Solace: R679 Fallout 3 - R679.00 Legendary - R679.00 November: Tom Clancy's End War - R699.00 Call of Duty: World at War - R679.00 Guitar Hero World Tour - Standalone Game - R679.00 Shaun White Snowboarding - R699.00 Naruto - The Broken Bond - R699.00 December Prince of Persia - R699.00 So there you have it folks, while the prices are going up, they are at least not going to be going up to what we had feared which is a bit less of a kick in the pants from the economic crisis. Also, many people are reporting to us that preorder prices are not looking like they are going to be locked down at all in most cases, so be advised.
An anonymous source has informed us that a local distributor has released a press release to retailers stating that games prices will be rising due to the economic crisis. The press release apparently states that due to the Rand weakening some 22% (R9.45 to the Dollar at the time of writing) that game prices will be increasing as of October 27. If game prices go up to between 20% - 25% we may very well be looking at the possibility of R850 for standard titles. We have a word of advice, after the jump. It doesn't take long to realise that there are going to be a lot of massive titles releasing in November and December, so if I can give you a word of advice it is this. Pre-order, Pre-Order and Pre-Order. That way the prices are locked down and the retailers can't charge you more. Also, if there are any October titles that you were thinking about picking up at a later stage (not pre-owned) then you may want to get your hands on them before the 27th. This is bad, bad news considering that we are about to run into what is arguably the greatest summer line-up of all time.
