Not yet, but there is talk, it is a star. The taxes are crazy, 71% on pistous and rifles and 72% on video games. Maybe we can change some of this. But to change a law in Brazil takes years, a lot of politician cock being sucked and money being received...

I know we're in a better position but.. honestly politics is the same everywhere. Here in the UK we elected a party with essentially three single issues: no tuition fees, no nuclear, yes to the Euro. So far they are 0/3. As soon as they got power they literally ignored signed pledges to the contrary.


This is a rotten world. =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

I don't want to think the price here in Argentina... It will be unbelievably expensive

No news on the price yet? Brazil don´t have a PS4 price at this point, Sony is sucking politician cock to try to low some taxes, but the Xbox One is up for pre-orders here pretty much everywhere.


Unfortunately there is no price listed for both consoles... But if I had to guess given price of the Wii U, the PS 4 could be 5500 AR$ (on cheapest place to buy it) and the xbox one would be about... 8000 AR$ or even more. Taking in to account that a really good salary (if you have a family) is around 10 000 to 15 000 AR$ this consoles will be extremely expensive for the averge people.

Wow, sorry to hear this =/

Isn't the general issue of high taxes part of the protests there?

Yeah. Doubt anything could be done about it though. The entire inflated, social welfare government of ours is basically a gigantic Ponzi pyramid with a life of its own. It would need to be completely redone in order to work properly.

Not only that dude, but the pandemic corruption too, Don´t forget, in Brazil, it is estimated that, from every R$100 you give the government, around R$35 get stolen before it is used in the proper way.

and when the son of a bitch thief is caught he is not arrested due to "imunity".

You are so lucky... just an example, here Wii U ($350) is aprox $2000+ -- if we took the ''virgin'' price and convert it directly it should be (Lc)2205, it's (Lc)12000+ -- this overprice is for all electronics and cars/car related stuff (tires, parts and such)

(Lc) local currency
