Hot Shots Golf DLC Discounts for North American PS3 owners

chautemoc | May 14, 2008 | News | Playstation 3

SCEJ have given gamers discounts for DLC in the past, and tomorrow will be another case. New characters from Minna no Golf 5 (Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds to us) cost $4 for Japanese gamers, but they'll only cost 99 cents for North Americans. This could be mean cheaper DLC for the title in the future, and other titles as well.

This isn’t the first time Sony cut prices for the US. PlayStation Network games like Echochrome and Piyotama cost less outside of Japan too. If this trend continues PlayStation 3 owners in Japan may want to consider importing US PlayStation Network cards providing that the downloadable content is region free.

Aye, once again, North America gets stuff cheaper than Japan....It costs 1/4 the Japanese store....That is a big difference in percentages, though only $3 in reality....

I sure as hell wouldn't pay $4 for a new character 0_o
