Why is it that in this country everything is so expensive? In the US pretty much every game is £10-£20 cheaper, depending on the platform. The ps2 was around £40 cheaper over there, and from something i read it seems to have the Hard Drive built in, which is another big saving.
The worst bit is the PAL encription system. I dont know the reason for this(so i could be completely wrong),but the only use i can see it has is forcing us to spend more than everyone else. WHY?

As ukdiscussions's only member of the conservative party (15 years old!) I think I should spread some tory propaganda. But I won't.

All I can say is that William Hague is the lesser of two evils.

But Charles Kennady has a bigger battle bus!

We know that you have suggested this probably somewhere in the past. But let's give credit where credit is due.

I believe we should have a revolution

Tony please don't give you vote to torries. Labour were a good party in the past, now they are like the Torries BUT no where as bad as Hagues crew.

Labour, by the way, have just removed my married man's allowance and given me zilch in child tax allowance. Then they spent £64 million promoting on TV what a great favour they were doing me.

So - they took an extra 800 quid from me this year and spent it on promoting themselves for the general election.

Oh - I'll vote for them shall I?
