So not unlike anyone else who loved Fallout 3, I have been anticipating this game for ever! That was until i saw the pre-order price for this game on steam. On the US steam store the price of this game sits at $49.99 USD, so i went to the Australian page and woah! I almost fell off my chair, apparently we have to pay $89.99 USD, for the exact same game! Thats right an extra $40 for what exactly? It's not like i will receive a copy of this game in the post with a manual, box art etc, its a digital download, it doesn't cost the company anything for postage, there is no physical product to produce so why the price hike????????? And considering that the Australian dollar is almost 1 to 1 with the US$ this make no sense what so ever!!!


So i ask you, PLEASE EXPLAIN!!!!

talk to the publisher not the developer

Its a conspiracy >__> *looks around* <__< Australia dousn't just want to ban games, they want to make them outrageous to buy...
Their ultimate goal is to eliminate all gaming X_X
(I'm just kidding of course... or am I?)

A few threads about this.

Everything is worth what its purchaser will pay, and not one penny less.

Hahahaha maybe your right!
