The new game price difference between PC and console is largely gone. There aren’t many games released simultaneously on both console and pc that aren’t $70 nowadays. I definitely agree on the PSN cost though. Fortunately it takes years for that subscription cost to catch up to the difference in hardware coats.

I believe the 30% is referring to the share of revenue that Sony takes per transaction.

That doesn’t make sense. Steam takes the same cut. I’m sure all of the vendors do.

It's equally stupid that we put up with their rent seeking.
