NICE. if i didnt have borderlands on ps3 id totally get that deal

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2010, 04:00 AM

I think I owned a copy of Stalker back in the day, but didn't have the patience for an open world at the time. The original + expansion for $10 is a deal I can't turn down, though.

Mussels · Aug 20, 2010, 04:07 AM

how much is brink going for on the US/UK steam atm?

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2010, 04:32 AM

the reason i ask, is cause you guys tend to get way better prices, so its easier to get a foreigner to gift it.

Can't you do anything to counter such high prices? I don't think its the developers getting that extra money, is it the Government?

publishers here in Au get exclusive deals, so they can dictate the terms to steam. only workaround is getting gifted by a friendly chap overseas, who gets the other prices.

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2010, 04:55 AM

If you want anything gifted, let me know Mussels. Happy to help you out for some heat

So its the publishers demanding the extra cost. Thats just wrong, there needs to be some sort of global fairness act regarding product pricing. I await a one world government, we needs to change things and each current separate government should act as a secondary government. A little radical and risky but I think thats the future or at least I hope.

ouch.... that's not nice at all.

Don't Steam give any kind of warning for what deal's they are going to do and when?

That's why I NEVER pay full price for games. EVER.

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2010, 03:03 PM

That's my philosophy for almost everything in life, unless it JUST came out and I know that I need it then.
