Also, just wondering, would you all want to pay a little extra to have voice acting in a PSM game we're working on, or is that something you even care about?

Depends what the game is about. If it's an adventure game or something like that, sure. If it's like Retro City Rampage, not so much.

It's a kind of Action Platformer.

Then probably not. Super Meat Boy had no narration, and it managed to tell an okay story. (For an action platformer) If you do a game like Thomas Was Alone, then narration is key.

When I say "action platformer" I mean is has combat things, I'd consider Meatboy a regular platformer, jumping is all you're doing (and it excels at that)

The genre isn't so important as the production values elsewhere. If your voice acting is good but the rest of the game has simple sprites or poor collision detection the contrast is jarring, and just highlights the lack of polish elsewhere. In general you'd be better off spending the money to give the rest of the game another round of polish and skipping the voice acting entirely, since that's an optional feature.
But that's in general. Your specific case might have some other justifications that make it worthwhile.

Oh certainly. I was just thinking about it a bit. It'd come after the game plays and runs 100%. There are hooks in our dialog system for playing sounds per phrase. If the game does well, I could patch it in myself.
I'm just thinking about it, and wondering if it would be worthwhile after it's a good game.

PS4 games are taking pre-orders at £70 ($105) and the console itself will be $600. PS4 must have blast processing.

Yup, those are just arbitrarily set by amazon. Someone just literally came up with the numbers.

Amazon has a policy (at least here, I know it is a global company so I can't speak for everywhere) where if the price for a video game drops between the time you pre-order and the time it is released they will charge you the lower price. So they always set the price way higher than they think it will be with the understanding that the price they charge you will naturally drop to whatever the list price is. If they accidentally set the prices too low they would be out some cash.

Actually if you look at their talk at gdc about dead space 2 art direction, 1 was supposed to be self contain and EA asked for the second and more actionny already. It was doomed to happen.
What's happening is a redder sea, smaller set of genre with higher budget and therefore less risk ... As the big compete on a very small pool they will get more comparison between franchise, which mean that technology and quirk will make the difference, bringing budget even higher. Resident evil is already suffering back flaming. Series that got an advantage differentiate themselves mostly by content like lore, story and identification. However that's fragile too, mass effect 3 suffer from executive meddling too and took a dip in its rep.
