Man, it's so much more expensive there. Perhaps you can get a US copy instead?

I wonder why it's so pricy for you.

Cant. Not without modifying my console. Not ready to do that.

The irony is.. The PC version is free.

Reason for it is Blizzard only did a limited run for the PAL version. (Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Europe, UK.) So it's completely supply/demand. Pretty sure it's release got cancelled in Europe as well. So the bulk of carts were sold in Australia which has a pop of only 24 million and all the other PAL territory's (500+ mill) are competing for that limited stock.

StarCraft 2's release didnt help either.

Same scenario's is also what pushed up Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis's price on the original Xbox. Limited run... Works on the Xbox 360. Plus Jurassic World created some extra demand for Jurassic park games... And it was actually a really good game. - Price has slowly come down for that game thankfully. Was hard to get a copy for under $100 AUD at one point.

If anyone has a PAL copy of StarCraft 64. I'll give you $50 bucks for it. :P

I made that suggestion because that's what I ended up doing with games on the SNES. Pricy games like Turtles in Time and Megaman X3, I got for 10 USDs each. Language difference was a small price to pay to have the games, haha.
