[iwreckyouz]

[FUDAAA]

Wow that's cheap

[Jake55778]

Am I missing something here as an ignorant foreigner? I thought the normal price for games in the US was $60? Why is $78 considered a good deal? Is it a collectors edition or something? Or are we talking Canadian/Australian/Zimbabwean/Martian/[Insert variant here] dollars here?

I assume he is aussie by the store Harvey Norman .

Retail for a new game is $110 which considering our savage dollar is higher then the american one is kind of bullshit.

Hence why I love steam.

Since most new games here cost around £30-£40, which seems very reasonable, I find these pricing systems to be frankly ridiculous. I can only hope it's because of different currency rates and not just the fact whoever prices your games is clawing for cash.

Wow, that is just insane.

Actually, new releases usually fall in the €50-60 range here, so the US seems to be getting a slightly better deal there.
