I decided I may as well buy Oblivion GOTY, as my sister owns SI and has "acquired" my (probably now trashed) Oblivion disk and I most live four hours away from her. I took a look online, and expected it to cost about ￡10, maybe ￡12 max but instead it seemed to be ￡20+, with not that many stores having it in stock.

I can't really justify spending much more than ￡12 on a game and was wondering if it was likely there was a supply problem or they had just stopped printing it? I didn't think 4 year old games tended to cost quite that much.

Quick question. Does the GOTY edition come with a map? I :wub: games with paper maps.


EDIT:
Clarification, I am on PC

I just checked in amazon, since I don't know what system your on i'll just put the price of all 3.

ps3, new $33.99, used,$18.25
PC new $18.03, used $13.99
Xbox, new $29.99, used $17.00

im not sure about the map though.
And im not sure about converting the money, I think you just half the number and that should be a good estimate.

Not sure about map. I can't remember if my one came with one as it is probably in the depths of my brothers bed room if it did.

Yeah, sorry, I should I said. I am on PC.

The issue is in the UK, it doesn't seem to be quite like that price wise with that distribution. On Amazon.co.uk the PC version is either ￡40 or not in stock, where as the console versions are closer to the price I would expect. (As linked to by Knight Crusader)

man 20 pounds for thats is a bit pricy - I've worked in the games biz for 3 years...

your $ range should be good enough to find it.

EDIT: the link above proved us all right
