The cost of living in much of the US is cheaper, especially the midwest. Cheaper Rent, food, etc. And gas is half as expensive.



That' s my point fool. You earn less but the cost of living is cheaper. WE earn more but the cost of living is higher. Games cost us what appear to be more but it' s all relative and balances out.

You say that us paying the equivlent of $93 for new games makes us some kind of idiots, but if games cost the equivlent of $50 here (say £30) then we would be able to afford more games per month than Americans (on average).

Test Drive is the exception in that you' re getting it at a cut price and we' re getting stung with what' s basically/actually the RRP of games here for 360. I didn' t expect the game to be any cheaper than the others so while it' s a little frustrating that the US will get it at a cut price surely that means there' ll be more Americans online for me to outdrive and teach which is the right side of the road?!

Videogames arent part of the cost of living.

In other words, in America the rich are filthy rich and the poor eat bread crumbs. Not only that, the filthy rich gets the immigrants to do the filthy work for them in exchange for those breadcrumbs.


They still earn more than they do wherever they come from.

" The average is brought down by immigrants"

Right, because Canada doesn' t have many immigrants...

Canada has 30 million people, we have 45 million hispanics.

If you had our amount of hispanics your country' s official language would be spanish.

And that is just 1 race.

Don' t be an idiot, the US has ten times the population of Canada, you have to look at percentages.

Not to mention the fact that not even half of those Hispanics are immigrants, most of them were born in America

It' s the same thing, actually it is more likely for a foreign-born hispanic to complete college and have a career than for a US-born hispanic to do so, probably due to the fact that the public high shcool education system in country' s like mexico is superior to the USA' s so the ones that come from latin america are actually smarter than the ones born here.

Are you completely dense? WE GET PAID MORE THAN AMERICANS!!! (on average) and therefore the cost of games evens it' self out against our US counterparts.

Now get back on and STAY on topic.

You are fucking retarded.

It doesn' t matter what you get payed - you have the option of buying the same games in your same fucking language for cheaper, but you choose to just allow companies to rape you, then you turn around and make posts on the internet complaining about game prices - so obviously you dont get payed enough, or else you wouldn' t be complaining.

We both know you don' t get payed shit, and you need to save money, therefor, grow a fucking brain, get a US x360 and buy the same games for cheaper online. Then you wont have to cry on internet forums about how expensive your shit is.
