According to a Press Release received from the local Activision distributors, Megarom, the global price for the PC version of Modern Warfare 2 has been increased to $60 (US), £45 (UK) and R500 (SA)

There has been no real reason given for the price increase apart form that it's a global standardisation of the price... whatever that means

Standardization as in the same price no matter the version - PC/PS3/360. Usually PC games are $10 cheaper than their console counterparts. Sometimes $20, as is the case with Left 4 Dead 2.
