Post Trine PS3 Priced at Half of PC Version

 


Trine is getting close to release, as proof by the recent demo and uptick in chatter on the game.  But all isn't good with the Frozenbyte's game, not because of gameplay, but because of pricing.  According to Shacknews, the PlayStation Network version of Trine will cost $20 - and while that initially might seem high for a downloadable title - keep in mind the PC Retail release is listed at $40.


It should be noted that the PC and PSN version of the game have different publishers, with the PC version being published by Southpeak and the PSN version being published by Nobilis.

wow... with price points like that i'd be surprised if there won't be tension between all the parties (3 publishers developer). that could spell disaster for frozenbyte and force them to stick to one platform in the future. that'd be a shame

it will be interesting to see what happens on XBL

$20 is mighty pricey for a PSN/XBLA game. It better be a long game with high replay value for that price.

Destructiod got a confirmation from Southpeak that the MSRP for the PC version is actually $29.99.

Still, lame, but less so.

Well, that pretty much solidifies that I'll be picking it up for the PS3.

Well I bought it from Steam already cos you will get Shadowgrounds with it when you pre-purchase. And it has coop-mode too.

Heh. I was going to buy the PC version on Steam, but now I think I may reconsider the PS3 one.

Or just wait for Steam to have another sale...

At that price I'll wait and see how the game reviews, and then decide if its worth waiting.

Did anyone else see this?

Apparently, the 360 version of Trine is only "speculation."

Thats just plain weird.
