What a whiny little b1tch. Check your taxes and import duty's (looking at you too Europe) before b1tching about price differences.

MGS:4 = EVERY XBOTS WET DREAM THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN
KZ:2 = AGAIN UNMATCHED BY ANYTHING ON 360 NOW OR IN THE FUTURE
yeah I would feel pretty desperate too if I were an xbot.
I think the reason for the price difference is in years gone by an Australian dollar was only worth 60 or 70 US cents and we were used to paying $700 for a PSOne or $750 for a PS2.
These days however an Aussie dollar is about 90 US cents. The rates are alot closer but it hasn't transfered over to the price of consoles. We lived with a $1000 PS3 cos we knew it had so much more in it than when the $750 PS2 launched but in reality it should have been about $750 if the US ont was only $600.
his an idiot F!ck i have 70 ps2 games and haven't played them because i got a ps3 go out and buy a ps2 4 $70 u f!ckwit
