"Over priced games? Go Here!"

You think video games are overpriced? Go here! I have signed it, lets just hope it works.

hhehehehe the days of cartridges eh :D

Actually, games are slightly cheaper then they were in the SNES/Megadrive days. I just had a look at a very old Special Reserve ad, and the average SNES game was £37, with quite a few over £45. Games would cost me alot more back then as I would usually get SNES imports for around £70. Street Fighter II Turbo cost me £105 on Jap - worth every penny too.

I buy off here as a matter of fact I have just preordered gta vice city so I am happy

Cheers for the site gamezfreak!

I usually buy off gameplay, they have xbox games from £35 upwards.

Yea I know its fair good is ebay if you look around a bit as long as the feedback is good

I always buy from SR if I am prepared to buy them in recent times I haven't been thus buying from game on impulse has crippled my finances however all should be rectified soon.

I shop around when buying games, and I usually don't spend much more than £34.00. Sometimes SR have the best prices, sometimes they don't. Just look around, and you can save at least a fiver.

No cos then they will just make the american prices twice as much :)

Ah! So THAT'S why they charge us twice as much as the Americans!


No. Wait...


Basically, Fairplay wants companies to give Europe American prices.
Which I think is very fair, and should lead to console games costing a max of 30 quid.
