Canadian Store price adjustments on May 1

Posted on April 30th, 2008 at 11:50 EDT

Sony Computer Entertainment America has announced that there will be an adjustment to the prices on the Canadian PlayStation Store when it is updated on Thursday May 1.

The changes are due to strengthening of the Canadian dollar, and they will be made during a window of time prior to the regularly scheduled Store update.

It wasn't that big of a price difference anyways like  usually 50 cents to 2 bucks. But that is awesome I am not complaining. I still like it, nice to see they are doing this.
