Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't majority of the games listed in the OP around $40 US. (Assuming £25 = ~$40) The £20 titles should be around $30. Then factor in that these prices include tax while the US prices do not.

Doesn't seem to unfair to me. Only part that is BS for you guys are the PSN prices. With retail however, using Rayman Origins for example, you pay ~$38 while we pay $40 plus 8.625% tax (I live in New York). So for Rayman I would pay ~$43-$44.

 

Nothing against anyone in EU, but I am so tired of this argument about unfair prices. In the US RRP is what I have to pay, so if Sony says $40 for a game, I pay $40. In EU from what I have seen, if Sony says £40 for a game, you pay £25.

That's just in the UK, not the whole of Europe; and currency exchange rates have worsened for Euro nations again, so the days when importing games from the UK was cheaper than buying locally seem to be over.


I know that for some other nations it is worse, but look at where the OP is from. I am just saying that things aren't as bad as he makes it seem.
