This thread has been linked to the game 'Street Fighter IV'.
Some clown on eBay has just paid £115 (£112 + £3 p+p) for a copy of Streetfighter IV : Here
He will get it on Saturday (6 days before the official release).
Its £25.80 to pre-order from GAME (£29.99 less reward points and Quidco cashback).
Thats an extra £89.20 to get a game 6 days early or £14.86 a day if you like.
Obviously the credit crunch isn't effecting us all ?.

That's why I'm sure the Collectors Edition will sell out on release.
Street Fighter fans are big on collecting.

I wonder if Microsoft will close the Live accounts of anyone playing the game before release...
Am I slightly evil for thinking that could happen to someone who can afford to pay that much for a game?

I doubt it to be honest mate.I had Asian region free versions of PGR 4 & Halo 3,both about 3 weeks before there US/UK releases.Played them both on live without any problems.It was a bit annoying as every 10 minutes or so kept getting messages from people on my friends list asking how I had them.I was surprised (especially on PGR 4) how many people were on them at that time (and all much better than me !).Difference being I paid about £22 each for them and not £115 !.Only played Halo 3 for about an hour,didn't like it so sold it to my mate (for the price I gave for it).Should really have sold it at a silly price to some sucker on the bay !.

Thats a lot of money for a game. Can't see why they got it so quickly, unless its because they want to start getting really good and beat everyone online or something.
That, or they're compensating for something.
