Well we all know Sony definitely needs the money, not. Actually, to be honest they might need an extra buck with how bad their PS3 sales went at their release. Sony is upping around 10 games and heres a short list of what they are.

SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 2 stayed same at $15.99
Prices dropped:
The Con $19.99 dropped to $9.99 (-$10)
As you can see a lot of the prices went up quite a bit. Although there was one price that dropped and it was in double digits. Sony is now known for their outrageous prices and backwards tactics. Even though I hate to say it, Xbox has one up on Sony even though if Sony tried it could easily beat the Xbox in a "Battle of the Consoles".
Let us wait and see how Microsoft reacts to this raise in prices, if they do. Sony, I'm sure, will have some press release on the causes of these increases and some dumb excuse to actually buy them.
