| justrollit said: But you already knew that......just joking. What I really want to rant about is the pricing of games. An example: Madden 08 on the Wii. I just checked a few websites advertising this for sale. Converting everything back to US dollars shows just how much Australians are being fleeced. In the US of A this is selling for 47.99 USD In the UK it is 29.98 GBP or 59.34 USD In NZ it is 99.95 NZD or 68.06 USD but in Australia it is 99.95 AUD or 78.37 USD
That is just ridiculous to my mind. Someone is just creaming a bit extra off the top for no extra value whatsoever. It is the same game, no extra features, nothing else added to it so how can they (the big THEY) justify charging so much extra for this? If I was Australian (God forbid

) I would be buying my games from a UK or NZ site and paying the shipping cost as a protest, surely it would still work out cheaper? Better yet I would move countries. The wholesaler/retailer in Australia do not deserve your money. I take pity on my Ozzie cousins.Nah it's just rugby national team that sucks :P
