Even Australia is getting a better selection of FREE games than NA? Are you kidding me? What the fuck?


USA gets a 20% discount on basically everything all the time. (consoles, accessoires, games etc. even digital stuff)

~20% cheaper than EU that is.  Australia is even more expensive than the EU.

He speaks german, so I'm pretty sure he's from Austria. But anyway, always a pleasure when people mix up austria and australia. And that's the reason why it's called Österreich in german. You won't see people around here mixing that up with Australien. =P

Yes, I have absolutely nothing to say about the topic. Move along.


Its also funny to see English people call Netherlanders Dutch which means Deutsch this is because Dutch and Deutsch were identical a few hundred years ago. Its neither used in Deutsch nor Nederlands to refer to people from the Netherlands tho. (funny how the Country is Netherland but the people are appearently Deutsch)

Or how Indian can be either someone from India or native americans.

You must be new to this site. Sometime in 2008 it was firmly established that he is indeed from Austrialia.

He might have some ancestors in some remote part of very northern south tirol where they also speak German. Hence is definitely germanish, but rather basic German language skills.

So when we call people from the Netherlands 'Dutch' we're wrong? Who are we referring to? And what should we be saying?

The other odd thing with the Netherlands is we Brits tend to call it Holland. Which I believe is technically incorrect?
