$60 (us) for a game?! ABSURD ISN’T IT?! Americans remember the good old days when a game was $50 and even then that was a very expensive purchase.
I live in Australia and I pay $120 for games. Oh but the us dollar is SO much more!
Oh ok… Then what the hell!?
I know they can hardly change game prices here depending on the current aus dollar but surely paying almost 50% more isn’t necessary.
New Uk games tend to be around 40 pounds (us $80)
Maybe Australians pay more because of the great weather?
I was in my local EB the other day when I spyed a pre owned copy of Assassin’s Creed, $100. BARGAINS ABOUND!
Yeah, so I’m a little cynical about it all, but when you are a very poor student living out of home with a VERY expensive hobby you’ve got to think which is more vital to survival. Food? Or games?
Sadly we know what the answer to that is…
that is so true.

woops, wrong review.
