QFT!!! Like Jake says if you are patient it doesn't have to cost too much. Also as someone else mentioned the ps3 is region free so you can always order a game from overseas. I don't see it as a big deal and it is obviously a consequence of Australia being such a small market that we are often forced to pay a premium. Keep in mind that the current situation is also a bit misleading as the Australian dollar is at a historical high against the US dollar. From my experience gaming has always been expensive in Australia and I don't see why you (starcraft) continually target Sony when everyone is in on it. Noone is forcing you to buy their products so if you don't like a company's priceing then don't buy their products. In the past I have been conservative and have waited for prices to come down but have invested heavily this generation. That's not to say that people should do what I did but simply that choices are available and that bitching and moaning will not achieve anything. Just relax and enjoy your gaming and don't worry too much about pricing :) |
If you had fully read my OP before having a bitch at me, you would have seen why I am 'targeting' Sony. Whilst Microsoft and Nintendo have both shown evidence of adjusting prices with exchange rates, Sony hasn't. Furthermore, I (apparently unlike you) do not have the unlimited funds necessary to "not worry too much about pricing." |
I guess the ability to import on ps3 compensates for that, however im guessing they will adjust prices at some point aswell anyways. It doesnt help however that its the most expensive console to begin with.
