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 long as you keep the same account you can change your nickname as many times as you want and it will still record all of your posts.

I don't choose the notables. There will be one vote every three months for you to choose the next one.
